Make me wonder if buying an old pro-street car is something we all should consider.
I think it would be cool as well..

Wist it was something exciting like bar fight... lol

broke my fifth metacarpal bone just below the pinky knuckle

tripped in my shop and landed closed fist on the concrete floor.. bonehead move on my part (and my first broken bone!)

The cure is worse than the sickness.. the fing cast means I type with one hand and one finger... and i have to use the mouse left handed. Gonna be a long month (considering i have 3 stories to type up)

Shiat happens.. still gonna compete in the Editors racethis weekend.. just sorta one handed (although my rgt hand is still somewhat useful)

You should get a special shift knob made so it will work with you cast. Or...one the works with one finger.

Well I was just cruising home from cruise night on the freeway and what comes rolling up next to me? Bad Penny and Mr. Rupp. She looked good and sounded great when Steve took her back a gear and gave it a little gas.
Looking forward to seeing her on the track tomorrow at GoodGuys. That ride looked a little stiff for our Cali freeways Steve. Did you have your kidney belt for that long drive home tonight? lol
