Given the relentless heat, gotta figure my plan for Phoenix/Carmel in my non-AC ‘69 for car week. I’ll roll either 6 or 7 August given heat/rain. Typically I like to do Wickenberg, Parker, Needles, Barstow, Bakersfield. Fewer trucks and a nice drive through the edge of the Mojave from Parker to Needles. But that way I won’t drive out of the heat until I stop, 8ish hours. The hated way is I 10 through or around LA, where I can drive out of the heat at say Banning or Beaumont, 6ish hours.

No matter which way, leave at 4AM as the heat is subsiding. Drive fast, windows down, plenty of cold water, sports drinks, my fan mister. Will see some of you at the Monday Seaside Porsche get together and Werks.
