Ah, you have one of them fancy pants automatic systems. Ours is just a manual gas valve. Rotate valve and apply a match, poof. It never fails.

Kinda like a car key with no battery.

4 people actually showed up to autocross yesterday. I was not among that group.

Evening Y'all. And just for the record I don't throw fits, when I get ticked off I get very quiet and have a tendency to stare at my prey. My kitties taught me that trick.

Steve was the only PCA driver. I bet he left his 911 at home and drove the Vette.
