  • Happy happy happy

    So glad we managed to made it the whole way this yr, great to meet some of you guys and gals, and sorry I missed out on some of you as I just had a plan to make a run and hit the road. What a great experience and the camaraderie among everyone was nice.

    Like minds having fun with their cars, torture yes, fun hell yes.

    Of all the problems and issues we had that seemed horrible at the time looking back worst thing that really happened was a failed voltage regulator causing all our elect problems. NO reverse really had no effect, and a stuck needle and seat were very minor.

    A friend just told me if I was going back again and I said I dont know, he said I guess its like being pregnant, takes a woman a while to forget the pain and remember the result.

    Might get knocked up again

            Glad it worked out for you this year. I can tell you going without your car is like going to the Lake without a Boat. You can watch everyone else but just not as much fun as being on a Boat.

                    It was great to see everything work out so well for you this year Tony.

                    If going without you car is like going the river without your boat, then watching the live feed is like watching home movies of your friends with their boats on the river.

                    I had to out to the garage or the parking lot and sniff the car smells to not be totally depressed. 2014 or bust.

                        Hahahahahahaha, I thought the same thing, it was the loudest slow car there. I almost didnt take the exhaust off becauseit was kind of embarrasing. I like the sound though, really different
