Driving a Lotus, a couple Mustangs, and even a Miata, around a new track, what more could a car guy ask for. Racing, wrenching, eating, and of course drinking with really good friends is what life is all about.

I've met Ron Sutton before, had no idea what a goof he is. Tagging Dave with a new bumper sticker for his ride home was priceless.

Adventures like that, melt away the stresses of everyday life. The only problem is sooner or later we have go back to work. Thanks again Greg.

As always, nice pic Scott




I couldn't have had more fun!! A very special time for sure! We ARE going to do it again!

Pits were a little crowded


If that was GW's helmet the 'car' would look even smaller!


.........and clill called the Lotus a POS



The cars are great but its the people that make it special.

I can have a blower belt on that Mustang in 2.8 minutes, but I can throw the belt in 2.8 seconds.

Yes ---- I did hang up on you.... next time call with something interesting. LOL

I've just spent 3 days driving from Nor Cal --- thru Wyoming - Colorado - NW Texas.... Cell service should not include the word "service". Even with my new Verizon service (switched from AT&T after 15 + years) "service" was less than stellar in TexASS.....

So back on track <see what I did there?>....... We'll defer to the OP reason for this thread. Something about a '40 Ford Pickup build.....

I pulled the build from Pinkee's Rod Shop... for no other reason than I'd like to try to get it done before I die. I love Eric - the shop does fantastic work - but I no longer have the luxury of infinite time. I might live to be 100 -- or the stents in my liver could plug up tomorrow (or today!).... and I'm on the GREG WELD time table now. That means CHOP CHOP GET IT DONE!

Left the smiling douchebags in California - and headed to Loveland Colorado with an empty trailer (in 40 and 50 MPH gusting winds!! OMG)..... and loaded up the poor old '40..... and headed off to Georgetown Texas... got here yesterday and unloaded.
