Well, with pelican down again for a few, I finished my club project. Last night I cleaned off the old grips, some nasty labels, and polished the shafts. Today I installed new grips. http://img.tapatalk.com/d/12/10/08/muduge6u.jpg
Most people use a vise, with that rubber thing to protect the club. Well I don't have a vice, so I improvised with a ratchet strap and my balcony rail....

All done....

Whew, I had a long busy day. The autocross was cold but dry. That is the good news. The bad news is the timing equipment died and was NFG. We just made it a full day of fun runs. 8 laps or more for everyone. I got home just in time to mow the back yard. As I was mowing as the rain came in. I was mowing the yard in a jacket and I could see my breath!

How'd the hip do?

GH85Carrera 10-07-2012 02:49 PM

The hip did great. No pain and just sore muscles from all the activity. Not enough pain for even an aspirin. Just a tired geezer. The autocross chairman had to leave early. I had to stay to the end and haul home 5 helmets 5 radios and a couple of flags.

Good to hear

Shhhh if we listen quietly you can hear the wild teenage band trapped in the garage.

Rick V 10-07-2012 03:20 PM

I am sure your neighbors just love you

Porsche-poor 10-07-2012 03:24 PM

Its not to bad with the garage door down. You can really hear it standing right in front of the door.

As a kid we went to visit some family friends. They were a a family with money. They said my brother and I could go upstairs and open the door on the top left. When we opened the door it was LOUD. They had a sound proof room built up there for the kids band. I know almost nothing about the equipment needed but it was a room set up for a band to practice.

Porsche-poor 10-07-2012 03:40 PM

Not going to that level. Its the garage or front room or nothing.

Rick V 10-07-2012 03:47 PM

I usually use my headphones when I play but I also don't play on a band so it is different

Porsche-poor 10-07-2012 03:53 PM

What? I can't hear you right now.

GH85Carrera 10-07-2012 03:54 PM

I can play my iPhone and the CD player in my cars. That is about it.

GH85Carrera 10-07-2012 04:11 PM

I can play IN my 911. :)

I hate Monday too. Sucks to be us.

GH85Carrera 10-07-2012 05:02 PM

Monday sucks, but we gotta have Monday to have Tuesday and on to Friday and the weekend.

Porsche-poor 10-07-2012 05:03 PM

Ground hog day? Rinse and repeat.

porsche4life 10-07-2012 05:03 PM
