Mark: 7 Clicks to make it really tight; seems like it may be one or two more than it was.

William: I never thought about how hard it might have been on the clutch!!

Fortunately it was parked on flat ground and I dont think it was pulled that last "click" to get it really tight.

An odd occurrance - one of my Fuchs center caps popped off. Could be one of two things, we were on Rte 2 north of Annapolis and they pavement is striated while they are repaving - lots of vibration. Or, it could have gotten so hot it popped out the center cap.

Drove it today in a "sporting manner" on some backroads - ran and stopped like the beautiful machine is supposed to.

I think I'll inspect it when I get around to it rather than right away.
