Chopper...

You would have been correct. You would have passed us going the other way.

The run was fun. I will plan another one in the very near future.

No, we did not have a down hill in neutral race this time.

I don't suppose you guys noticed us on the return by the side of the road

No, Scott

What happened?

Welllll> IF you remember, after the bridge by the lake there was a Forest Ranger truck with a couple of folks standing by it that waved at you all. That was us. The Cobra was down below (about 20 feet out of site ) We hit an oil spot brought out by the rain and spun (when you all went by it had dryed considerably) and then went down the hill (fortunately I was only going about 20 at the time and by the time we headed down the hill it was probably about 4mph but had to winch it out. So I have things to fix. The good news is that we weren't hurt at all. The second bit of good news is that the car took it very well. The side pipes are pretty trashed and I've got some fiberglass to repair (a 8x10 inch spot in the right front, a 4x15 inch spot in the left rear and a long scratch on the passenger side) Sooo. An interesting turn of events for the day (missed the soccer game too)

Probably could have actually driven it home but chose to flat bed it.

Best

I remember the Forest Ranger truck. But only glanced over there. Needed to concentrate on the wet pavement.

Sorry we did not know.

I'm glad you and your daughter are OK. Cars can always be fixed.

If you need anything let me know.
