Nope, you have never seen me on any of your videos. The closest I ever got to being a movie star was a face in the crowd of Vanishing Point. My home town was used for some of the filming.

What are you talking about Jeff, you get filmed most every day I bet.
I've seen it several times myself. Can you say Connie?

OK,
All this negative stuff coming from Ratboy has caused a rift in the Mikie weather connection. It will be a little cooler than previously reported. A balmy 63 for Saturday. A great day to get out and about.
Now becareful of the little brown dog..

Mikie, Do you suppose that Ratboy knows about the trained Coyote on the road to Tortilla Flats?

Ratboy drives slow now days. That is after the river show scare I guess.
It's no fun not being able to steer your car.

The Coyote has been contacted. Says, he has never seen a Purple Cobra before.

Grasshopper ...... you were steering the car.
When a rear axle follows the front axle to your wreck the steering input is more what you are used too! |

Looks like Charlie and the guys at Dean's are spending all their time working on Ron's engine. My car won't be ready until after Christmas. So....Marti and I will be making the run in the Zcar. While you're all freezing your nickles and dimes, we'll be toasty warm with the bun warmers.. windows down and no heater, but the bun warmers will be working.

I think I will have to pass on this run after all.
To make it there by 10 am I would have to leave at or before 9 am and driving in the high 30s or low 40s doesn't sound to fun at all.
Enjoy you trips guys and I may see some of you Saturday night at 83rd.

Danr,
What's a "zcar"?
What are you having done to the Cobra?

WIMP nothing worse than a fair weather cobra driver. You will never get past ROOKIE with that attitude.

Whine, Whine Whine.
That's what they make jackets for.
Try Leaving at 9 am for the Christmas party then driving over to Surprise for an outside b-day party then leaving in the dark for Mesa, cutting off Mikie in the process. F-ing cold all the way.
Mikie's right you will never get past ROOKIE status.

I do.
I'll be there. There's the getting to the meet, the run, lunch and return trip home. Total time for me is about 3 1/2 hours of cobra time. Love it.
Remember it's the journey not the destination.
If you are there great. If not it's OK.

Dan,
I wish they were working on my engine but I just got word it wont even be shipped from Roush until the first week in Jan at the earliest as Roush is closed down ALL next week. It must be nice. It didnt make it to dyno this week so that will be done Jan 4th and MAYBE be ready to ship by the 8th. 1 week of ship time and 2-3 days to get back in the car so I wont see my car until the 3rd week in January making it 4 MONTHS since they received my engine.

When you get it back, we can do a welcome home run someplace.

Ron,
Are you boiling yet?
I sure know I would be.
Hopefully you won't get to many more date extensions.
