Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

"Chasing the car in front of you into a BRAKING ZONE at 130mph is quite intoxicating. It is expensive, and a poor guy with some skill will find out he can't beat a rich guy with some talent"




Here Jerry -- I fixed it for you.... so now Gaetano can use it too....

Sieg, can you call Greg and see if he is OK. I think he has lost his mind.

Enjoying all your pics Sieg.

This one stood out for me at least...it's one of the best shots of the 33Speed I've seen so far.

Thanks Skip. The car is something else in person. Doesn't stand out at all, but man it sure draws a crowd especially from people in the know. One of the most impressive features of the car to me is a very simple one.........the way the doors feel and sound when opening and closing - like none I have ever experienced.

I have to say -- I've gotten more good laughs out of this thread. And I thank you all for that!



Thanks Sieg! The '33 Brizio built RideTech wear'n' hot rod is really a sweet little ride... Think I'll head home from the shed and have Gwen take me for a ride around town.

Thanks, Greg. Sorry to hear about your mechanicals, but I'm sure you'll find some very shiny solutions. I think finding out more about your Mustang was the reason I initially joined this site. If you like, I will attest to the fact that you spent a lot of time in front of a certain orange Camaro, and nobody could tell how hard you were breathing (or circulating refrigerated water across your chest).

Depending on how much the next month of my life thrashes me, I may just show up at Thunderhill in October, maybe even without any new body damage...

Next time bring it up to Thunderhill and run the full 5 miles in October with us.

I don't do much shiny stuff -- but I do want reliability!!! I'm sick and tired of a motor that has constant issues. At least this time it happened late Sunday instead of like the last time I ran Sonoma, and it was on the first lap after a fresh rebuild! UGH. It's right after that last year that I bought the Lotus for a back up car and that worked out real well this time around. Sieg was out and I was in! LOL


The Cool Shirt was the best thing an old fat fart like me ever bought.... it was such an amazing difference in how I felt at the end of the day!! The driver suit I have to wear is too hot for the summer driving -- and I let Sieg wear the cooler summer single layer... which would be far more comfortable. I'm just too nice. LOL
