What an awesome time! The New Directions were honored to be a part of such a beer filled, fantastic weekend.
Count The New Directions in for next year. We had a blast!
Thanks for having us. It was an honor to be a part of the fun, even if we were just a small part.
Mercedes-Benz Tech, and vintage road racing mechanic.
Not cool. I've gone to the BRIC every year for the last 6 years to wrench, or spectate and never seen anything like that. I was in pit lane...
Looks good. Can't wait to see it in person.
I've owned a 70 P1800E (fuel injected, 4 wheel discs) for 6 years. Worked on P1800 and 122 racecars. I like 'em. They are slow and heavy for GT...
Sounds like yer master cyl.
You just love to try to get under everyones skin. RULER
The Road Dog was built in Green Bay Wisconsin. Not an unusual contraption to come from Wisconsin.
Thats the Road Hog. Built in Wisconsin. There were sort of 2 of them. I can't remember the details. Wallneck does own one.

I used to sleep in a '47 Flx on race weekends. Cool bus.
MB's are made to be serviced, especially the older ones. They do do some very stupid things, as all companys. I am not ashamed to work on them,...
Fat, sorry Mercedes-Benz. I don't like to spell it out, that word doesn't belong here.
Please leave MB alone. I have plenty of bad storys as well as good ones.
If it weren't for modern cars I would be working some where else. Brand new german cars are usually nice to work on. I like a wide variety of...
Zora's car was really the same cosmetically as the rest of the J2X's. He just new how to make everything work a little better, ya know, thats how...
Not familiar with Zora Duntov's. Is it an Allard J2X? these are popular for vintage road racing. There real downfall was there brakes. Drums don't...
Good thing we are slow at the shop. The HAMB's speed isn't slowing me down.
I've had a yellow top for 6 years. The dynamo is 34 years old has over 200K on it and I've never had a problem. I used to charge it for a day once...

Does anyone have any Willy pics? Does Lukester have any updates on any of his machinery?
A Wisconsin boy? Wher' you at boy?
I'm not a Volvo wrench any more, I work on Mercedes-Benz. I own and race Volvos. I assume thats a B230 (non turbo). If its a turbo it is a water...
Bare metal..... in the rain...... You rule!!!!
I like Larry Gordhammer's yellow '32. That is a sweet original rod. He hasn't changed that car since the 60's.
Looks like you've done a good job. I think the white roof makes the car look soft. Maybe it looks better in person? It needs a red cop bubble...
The vaseline will be fine for a while untill it starts to harden like 20 year old wheel bearing grease. Soaking a ratchet over night once a week...
Skippy, I don't know what the specific color is. There isn't any green in it though. To me its a bright yellow. Sad to say that Bob had the old...
