Yep, that would be me. Don't forget to come to next year's MOTD Cigar Salon, as it will be our 10th Anniversary, and I'll have 10th Anniversary cigars to hand out.

 

Thanks, Dave.O...it WILL be at MOTD, loaded with 10th Anniversary cigars!

 

The Milltek is not as loud and obnoxious as many catbacks, but has a nice burble, instead. The wheels are 15" oem holeys [R81] that have been painted and clearcoated flame orange to match the dragon roof decal and bonnet stripes.

 

Ahhhhhh, yes. I remember one year, as I was leading a few cars down I-75, I was smoking and had the window cracked open for the smoke to trail out. At our next rest stop, I was told to bring up the pack and not lead anymore, because the smoke was getting some of the drivers and/or their passengers nauseated. :ihih:

 

Thanks so much!

Since the tranny fluid change, the S is running like new, so I'm hoping it will be around at least for the next 50k or so [106k right now since last October]. Since we are both older, we gave up on the BMW CCA HPDEs, though...the S because of its miles and me, because my helmet expired. It WAS fun, though...great memories.

We plan to make it together to MOTD next May, and yet ANOTHER Cigar Salon!:ihih:

 

Thanks, Chuck. I'd update the info sheet if I could figure out a way to do that [not particularly pc-savvy]...I guess it's the Silverback blues....

 

Right now, I'm thinking Perdomo 10th Anniversary Champagnes, which are mild to medium smokes. I also plan to hand out Camacho 10th Anniversarys, which are full and are kind of an asskicker for a novice smoker, but are among my favorites, so if no one wants them, I'll be burning up the Dragon! I'll have some others, but these are my go to cigars for now.

 

Yeah, they DO look kinda familiar, huh? I wonder why....

 

Thanks! They were custom stripped, painted and clearcoated by a M/A and MoM friend. I wanted the color to match that of the dragon on the sunroof as well as the bonnet stripes and I get compliments on those holeys a lot.
