It wouldn't bother me if it was baby pink to be quite honest...

I don't get excited about color, if the price is right...

was taking her to walkers in Seattle to have the top end done. got on freeway, came off ramp shifted to thrid and she took off on her own. I had to ride the brakes for a mile to find a spot to pull over, I'd let up she would head to 100. the cruise control cable had come loose and jambed the throttle wide open. not cool, thank god rush hour was over........

Ugh. One cat just ate a bird on the front doorstep. Feathers and all. Well, except a smattering of the guts left behind. And the other cat I stopped earlier today from eating a fat lizard he had trapped under his paw. Man was he pissed at me after that for a good hour.

911? I don't have no 911.

My 928 has been in the shop so long getting all the tuning stuff installed and operating I'm beginning to feel like I don't drive a Porsche. Currently the Wideband O2 sensor is not heating up so it won't calibrate. Gots to have the wideband to tune the fuel maps. Hopefully it will be all resolved and tuned up this week and I can re-dyno to see what difference the tuning stuff makes.

that happened to me driving home from the airport one night, at about 3 am....the car "took off" as i was on the freeway. shifted it into neutral as i pulled off the road, and before the RPM's screamed, i shut the ignition off. took me about an hour of fumbling in the dark, trying to use my cellphone as a flashlight to see that the cruise control cable had come loose. not fun.

Morning guys.
Weekend's done.
I don't have cruise control. Time's too short between shifting gears to engage it....

Also, Isabelle is not over her last BF yet, that's why I didn't manage to get a date with her. That's what I've heard from her friend. This is not over yet, but I'm not playing the waiting game either. F that.

Good Morning guys.

I spent most of the day in my garage yesterday working on my 911. I am getting ready for my trip to Savannah GA. It is 1,100 miles each way according to Google.

I changed the engine oil, transmission oil, evacuated and recharged the AC system, new fuel filter and did a careful inspection of all my suspension & brake work.

I wanted to feel confident that the AC was at 100% since Savannah GA in August is going to be HOT. Of course it was 101 here yesterday and will be triple digit temps all week.

I am going to replace the fuel pump before the trip as well. It is the original pump so it is 26 years old and has pumped 136,000 miles worth of gas.

I was expecting to be very sore after doing a few thousand deep knee bends, lay on the floor and get back up exercises. I did a few 12 oz curls as well. I am happy to report very few sore muscles

The AC was blowing nice and cold when I went for my test drive.
