Despite the fuel hoarding crisis, I think everyone made it there and back okay. It was a good turn out.

We missed you Ray!

I see a bunch of Covid-19 germs floating around in that pic Brett:



I hope they're gone for next year's DGRR, I'll cruise on up.

Ipromise to not enter the LE in any of the competitions to make it fair.

Congrats on the retirement Robert!

Nope! That picture is covid free! The media has been suppressing the fact that rotary exhaust is the cure for covid!*

Not true! Don't believe what you hear on FOX News!

It's a well known fact that rotary exhaust causes Covid-19 to mutate into more deadly variants.

Felix himself realized this when his wife and three of his kids died of SARS related illnesses back in the '50's.

You guys just set the US vaccination program back 3 years!

Brett, Did you had a dog with you? I thought I recognized you, but the dog threw me off!

Issues!

Made it there and had lots of fun as much as worries. My car started to get warmer than normal and not having a lot available to me had to make due. Flushed the system, removed the license plate from the front of the car, and took advantage of the downhills. Took about twelve hours to get home, but the car never overheated. Thanks to Bob and Richard who worried about my options. Until next year, or next time!

I made it up there... but I was detonating the whole way; I turned tail and ran home on the first day. Nothing is worse than being in the mountains with amazing roads, and a poor running engine.

Now I feel better about not having approached the guy with the dog! I parked the car and wander all over the place! Definitely next year or want of the meets. And thanks!

If you stare at the picture and then slowly cross your eyes until a third black RX-8 appears the one in the middle will be in 3D.

That's tomorrow Tim. Is anybody else going?

I think I'll take the LE down there and check it out.

Sold my black FD on Wednesday, I was a little sad to see it go, but I think it went to a good home.

It's new owner lives near Los Angeles, he flew out here and is towing it all the way home. Says he's going to get the body cleaned up and repainted, it'll be nice to see it get that kind of lovin. It was a good car!
