My buddy and I peeled off in Wimberley (90 minutes from my house) and headed home Saturday afternoon. It started drizzling about thirty minutes from the garage and was really coming down about the last ten miles. I was in my JCF with no top up but it was a good incentive to drive fast--the quicker I went, the less the rain came in.
It was really pretty cool--my friend Eddie was behind me in the GT40, and when it started raining in earnest he put the headlights on...looking in my mirror at the front of that car, single wiper moving, headlights blazing, all I could think was "Le Mans, Le Mans..."
