    Dayum, Teddy...you didn't have a car the last time we were to pair up for the yearly jaunt to MOTD. I'm starting to feel like I'm a jinx or something!

    Are you SURE you want your spiffy car to be seen with my ratty-looking S?

    WOOHOO---my car will be ready a week from Thursday. Of course, I had to tell Brian that a life sentence is not really a deterrent to someone my age. :) :)

    My town did not plow when we had that big storm a few weeks back. Consequently, the ruts were about 8-9" high and my S is lowered. I had to take my dog to the vet so I had to drive in that crap and now my Milltek is making noises similar to a woman in childbirth. I'm PISSED.

    What possesses an idiot to drive like that on the dragon or anywhere? I'm easy going, but that carp really pisses me off.

    Thanks!

    From what I understand they let quite a few people off with just warnings.. or a new one I never heard of "Severe Braking"... @ $20.00 but I'll let that member tell that story.

    Thats awesome.. teaching them early. :Bag:

    I will have to remember that for next year.

    That sucks... love the rest of the pics and the fire.

    The ticket I got was for “Excessive Braking” and will cost $20.00.

    The officer was really cool and did not write me for 60 in a 30. Let’s just say 60 was the low number after I braked hard and he radar gunned me. lol

    Is this the first time you've gotten a fine driving award from the HiPo on the dragon?

    The reason I said that is because when the car is driven hard, the camber should be just enough to provide even wear across the contact patch. If you are wearing the inside that much, too much camber.

    And still a great looking car!
