We had a party for Em on Sunday and I jokingly said if anyone contributed $10 or mor to Emily's college fund I would give them a ride in the Cobra. I while later a 15 year old boy comes over and said his mom would write a check. I laughed and said get in. When I got back there was a woman in her 60s and she wanted to go next and said her husband would take care of it. In all we (my brother in law took some too) took several people for rides but only one was a guy. No, I did not accept money from any of them. Found out that with these sticky tires the front tires rub under heavy braking. Need to do some fiberglass work there I guess. Was starting to run a little hot at the end of the day from driving hard, pulling in, turning it off, briefing passengers on the pipes that will scar you, helping them buckle, repeat the process.

The girls all stopped talking when I was hard on the gas. Some put their hands over their heart while their head was plastered against the headrest.
