Right, you are 383. These holligans are my kinda people, diehard funsters!
There are a few of us going. Scotty is the closest to you down there.
Mother Nature's a grouchy old broad... Where else do ya have to dodge hurricanes to go racing?
What time you arrive last year?
Scotty is bringing his truck too. Prolly leaving early Fri am, unless we can free up Thurs.
Since I have to run the rid w/o a windshield, I needed to make a new bottom cushion that will let me sit about 5-6" lower. My buddy John owns A1...
Enjoy what ever downtime you can get! Although, surgery is a bit of an extreme way to get a little peace n quiet. ..

Ever since we put the bigger Flattie in the car, it's been running hot & hates to idle for very long. Pulled the Radiator to have it tanked &...

My photo of the car pales in comparison to Mike Rodgers' work.
I got the acceptance email a few weeks ago, but have been too buried in work & club projects (ie; Concours d'Elegance, etc) to start prepping the...
You must have a lucky horseshoe stuck in your butt! Glad that you n the Mrs are OK. Cars are replaceable.
