So — this test and tune session was first time out where the car could “get going”...... They did a half day (a little more) == and got everything all set up. This was a SpeedVentures track day and for an extra fee we were able to go on and off track “at will”... makes it much nicer to sort all the stuff out. Jay is real happy with the car and they feel they can toss me back the keys and I’ll be happy.....

Mind you this is a Long track version at Las Vegas MS.... and it’s just a track day - but it’s still pretty fun to know the car runs and drives!

So - thank God I have a daughter (Adrienne) that loves a road trip as much as I do - and also would prefer to drive the dually over a “normal” car.... With Speedtech moving to their new building — I was pretty sure they’d like the DM out of their hair.... So despite me not feeling well - or very energetic.... we hooked up and set out for St George Utah.... Once there we had a nice dinner with Blake and Anita — and the “boys” loaded up “NOT SAUCE” and all it’s parts and pieces.... These guys are GOOD! Seriously! I went to the bathroon — and by the time I came out - everything was packed - strapped and in it’s place.

We set off for Thunderhill Raceway.... where I had two jobs. #1 - move from my little shop - to the new larger version.... and #2 - get “Not Sauce” put away.... #3 was a stop at Charley’s if we had time. Mind you — all these days later and I haven’t driven a single mile.

It’s a three calendar day drive to do all this.... and when I got to Thill —— Dan Basher is waiting for us to arrive! Total surprise to me! That’s a 12 hour drive for him to come down from Seattle.... It was a good - no. Make that GREAT surprise. I had arranged with the track to get me some labor to make all this happen.... and I was dreading that - but it is what it is. A man has to know his limitations.

Well —- Dan and I moved everything! Well - let me make a correct statement — Dan moved 6 to my 1.... and I can’t thank him enough - ever - for making a dreaded move a fun couple days. I’d always prefer to do things with friends!

Now we’re headed home..... with a little “thanks Adrienne! stop in Vegas”.

Sweet that you can get the trailer inside, that's nice.

You missed absolutely nothing at Spring Sprint...was straight up miserable. In addition to the rain I'm going to go on record and say that the club needs some help to survive.

Totally agree with both statements. Membership is old and getting older — and there are other groups that run a better show.

Basher - me - Rob DIckey all showed up at Sonoma to support Dave running NASA —- I can swear to your MISERABLE WEATHER statement..... just flat out nasty!

Can you put a passenger seat in the car and at least get a few laps in it that way?

You’ve got a GREAT daughter and if it weren’t for her I would have gotten a bunch of chores done around the house. She a spittin image of you, way cuter but just as stubborn. I’m glad to call you both friends.

With the shop kinda set up and the lift getting set up this week we’ll need to get everyone together to christen the place. You know I’m in.

I’m not sure support is the correct term. The weather did suck for sure.
