She gave me the look like your car better not be that obnoxius sounding. I just smiled...(she don't know I got cut-outs)


HAHAHAHA --- Trust me when I tell you my neighbors go NUTS with all the exhaust stuff around here!


Did the panels work? Or?

The car is no Riddler winner -- but it's FAR FAR superior to what we started with.

The door panels work but, it touches the down bar. you could just grind down the panel a bit to give it more clearance, or put a slight bend in the down bar. The rear panels need to be cut a bit around the main roll bar hoop.
He took them, to take to an interior shop to see what they say.

Okay -- so that means he liked them -- if he didn't he wouldn't have taken them. Crap... now I'll owe you money!

We found that out about the pool as well... on a sunny day - the phone starts ringing and it's always the same question.... "so are you guys hanging out at the pool?" And that's when the party starts. :lol:

It will have to be after it's not broken... 'cause for now - it's still in Sonoma somewhere.

Started the day out watching the pros tee off at the Boeing Classic.... had a little lunch at the Schwab hospitality tent ---- then decided to run the R8 down to Shelton to check out "The Ridge".... since the calendar showed they were having an Audi track day!

Nice looking track --- the rest --- not so much... YET! Everyone I spoke with LOVED the track --- but I can tell you right now -- it's the perfect set up for "da rig".... my own potty shack --- food -- and a place out of the sun,
because there is NOTHING out there but blacktop right now!

As long as I was on that side of the water --- we went up to our old home away from home (Poulsbo) and had dinner at our buddies restaurant.... then grabbed a ferry home. All in all - not a bad 12 hours!

:woot:

Every "qualified" person I've talked to about the track has said nothing but good. No bad. The on-bike video I've watched on friends bikes confirms it.

The "Rig' is perfect for The Ridge and ORP. :thumbsup:

Looks like you had a quality day. :yes:
