What happuneddd? Yes, to be fair my thoughts/plans aren't always the most well thought out. I figure if I have a pile of stuff for Dr.Steve then he'll install it. I'm coming to the end of the rainbow though (still need the gauges) & then I'll be on to bigger/better things.

FINALLY FRIDAY Putting the chairs in the boot when I get home and wishing that Nick and Shelly would join us. We could get extra chips so Jim does not eat them all

Got lucky today
While enjoying a favorite curve (transition ramp from N87 onto N280) at about double the posted limit I am almost through the curve when who do I see parked on the side but one of our states finest . Now either they were busy with paperwork from a previous stop, sleeping, not paying attention, or just Ken's son Kevin, I dont know, but I felt like it was my lucky day.

If it's an old skool Mini I just saw that Mini Mania has a rear engine Vtec kit coming out complete with cage.

Or are you finally going do do the Vette?

We are home! Had plans on joining you all, but Nick was not feeling up to it when it got closer to 5:00. We will catch up with you all soon. Do you have any projects this weekend besides Nick's (Fracky's brother in law) car? Have a great weekend!

Shelly & Nick

We had a CHP escort today from Los Banos all the way to Fresno. Do you realize how slow 70mph is on 152? I don't think my car knew what to do.

It looks like SRTech is finally taking a Saturday to go on a run, leading us thru one of my favorite towns if for nothing more then its name. However in looking at the list it looks like only a few will be going on this run. How could this be possible? Maybe we missed the link, if so here is the link to Brad's excellent adventure https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...-nov-14-a.html put a mark on your day planner RSVP on the link and lets have some fun together.

I have a bag of chips in the boot For those in the group that have not made it to Casa on a Friday it is a standing joke on how many bowls of chips and salsa Jim will go through. Almost like like the Lays commercial you can't just eat one
