Good afternoon guys. I did the extra hard flush on my sweat glands today. It hit 100 degrees and I bet the humidity was 90%.

I started the day with the autocross. It was HOT. I finished 8th out of 15 cars in my class. All but one of the guys that beat me had race tires or R compound tires.

As soon as I got back to the room I took a shower and before I got cooled down we headed off to across the river on the ferry.

We walked up a hill and ate at the Pirate's House restaurant. Good food.

Then we went antique shopping. It was a success and we came away empty handed.

By the time we got back to the hotel we were soaked with sweat. Another shower and a cool off time and then off to fancy seafood dinner. That cost me the same as one of my monthly car payments on my 1st new car. That car was a 1973 VW bug that I paid for in just one year.

Tomorrow is a bus ride to Beaufort Tree Walk.

Sounds like fun, Glen. I spent the day at work. But like I said in another post, it's always 70 degrees inside.

I'm happy with the new sway bars so far. The car is almost on rails. There is a noticeable difference with how the car turns and how quickly and precisely. Shocks will help a lot more and finally torsion bars.

Morning.

New to me. Non adjustable - unless I drill a couple of holes.

Front went up from 20 to 22mm. Rear 18 to 20 or 21mm.

G, usually. Also really depends on what you are trying to accomplish.

Went to see it at her request, something about having made her watch LeMans, and I was "rewarded" for going....
And its not super serious, or at least not on my side...

In some places, the grenades are better than the prime around here....
