There is no better gift this day than to get to drive that creation again.

We'll need clarification on this Chris, are you talking 'bout Jane or the Carrera? Jane may not like the "drive" reference.
Either way congrats on the 30day pass.

Tonight and tomorrow I'll be doing some "driving" ;) heh, heh..

Thanks to everyone for all the good wishes. Dave M. may join me to photo the Carrera at Deadmans tomorrow.

Great news, Chris. Man, the DMV always has one more way to make you pull your hair out that you never thought of before, huh? :(

Hey, look... I'm sure you've already thought of this, but ease up towards 10/10ths gently, okay?

Because the old neurons aren't firing quite as fast as they were the last time you took her through the gauntlet... and we don't wanna get word you went off at Carl's or something.

Heh heh.

Just curious... did they do a run-through checking all the usuals like turn signals, brake lights, etc.?

Oh, yeah... Happy Anniversary, too! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/support/smileys/wat6.gif

No, The car never left his property. Since the VIN as still in the DMV database, Chris just had to re-register (with some penalties for not filing a NPO) the car and now has to get a smog check. :)

Chris is sleeping just fine tonight. Everything will go as planned. It's all calculated. Back to the future. Trust me.

By the way......the wedding is off!

I think it was the driver doing the smiling, too, in one of those pics.

But you know, there is a small difference in a smile and a "cat that ate the canary" grin!:D

BTW... I got my ride today, and so did Dave. Woohoo!

Dave has video that I hope he posts soon.

slodave 12-31-2008 05:00 PM

That was an interesting ride! I need to spend a couple more minutes buckling in correctly :rolleyes: I don't know about you Derek, but I had issues when the windshield went completely white from the haze on the windshield and sun, especially when Chris then decided to put his foot into it.

Some video and more pix to follow.

Thanks for the beers, Chris. I needed them!

The UV filter on my video camera is toast. A few rocks hit it. Oh well, that's what it's for.

porcupine911 12-31-2008 05:10 PM

Yeah, those are some odd belts. Good times though.

I think Chris pissed off the Asian one, I heard her saying something about the smell and smoke... The look on her face also shows her disapproval.
