Another opportunity came my way yesterday. I got a call from a wife's relative that a band he knows needs a drummer for some studio work. He suggested me and I am waiting on a call. I have no idea what type of music it is but unless it's gangsta rap I'm going to give it a shot.

Oh, its Friday!!
The 911 has the windshield just inches from the drivers face. I can keep my hand on the steering wheel and straighten my finger and touch the windshield. The dash area gets HOT and the fresh air ventilation is wimpy to be polite. Even if the AC is non working the AC blower at least blows some air around. My old GPS sat on the dash attached to the windshield. It would get so hot it hurt to touch it. On my trip to Hershey, PA I was driving all day into the afternoon sun. on the way home. The AC was stock back then and it kept me from melting but it was just not enough.

With the two additional condensers from Griffith's and a new evaporator on the way home from Savannah it was even hotter outside and we stayed comfortable. I love to crank the AC up on the way home from the autocross after a day of standing on hot asphalt.




Good luck with your rock career! The next Bonham?
