This post would not be complete without a few thank yous.
1. My loving husband who built a wonderful car and is willing to let his crazy wife take off on such a trip. He has faith in me, that I can fix what may go wrong and bring the little beastie home safely.
2. Great friends, those I've known and new ones I've met. They include my spyder/speedster buddies and the Pelicanites - several of whom emailed with phone numbers in case I had a mechanical - THANK YOU.
3. To this site sponser - Pelican Parts. Our car is full of parts bought from this site. Exceptional quality every time. THANK YOU!
