It's less trouble than replacing the porch bulb being there is a fixture to open to get at the bulb and all.

The car just passed smog. I think flogging it around trying to get the motor hot before the test might have done something. It's never leaked before. Grrr.

Heck I even made a RUF switch to stickier racing slick at the TRACK to beat me on street tires and I think that says a LOT. The the RUF driver was considered the fastest guy at that track.

A well setup 50/50 balance car is difficult to beat.

If you compare Porsche's quoted times for the 951S and the same year 911 Turbo, the 911 Turbo is faster to 60, but they both have the same 1/4 mile times. That means above 60 the 951S is quicker.
We shall find out on the day.
It should be good fun, thats the main point.

I know. I'm not looking forward to it. Multiple ibuprophen on board already, headed for a soak in a warm tub. Always worked when I stressed too much in sports. We'll see how this works.

Speaking of which, it's my office holiday party tonight.

(Same place as the office happy hour, Dave, but inside. Don't know if the ex-lingerie model product rep will be there, though.)

You really need to fix the blinds in your office.

I'm too lazy. It's all tangled up at the top. The ceiling in my office has got to be about 12-14' high. Those blinds drive me crazy.
