lmao.


I dont think I will come. Last night at about midnight I blew my upper rad hose. In the middle of freaking nowhere. Had to walk around a bunch to find a guy with a phone so I could call my dad to come get me. Had to leave my car there. So I am going to get a new hose in a few minutes and go fix it.

Lesson: Check your $#&ing hoses. All of them. And check every part, too. I inspected mine not long ago, but I didnt look under this little plastic shield on it. And guess where the 2" gash is? Grrrrrrrrrr...

There's coolant everywhere....


Though as an afterthought, it did look kind of cool to see all that white steam coming out of the vents like that...

Yeah, I did. Turns out my car has 'heavy duty cooling' and they gave me the non-heavy-duty hose.

Though the guy did give me a look when I went in there and said "your hose is too short..."

It all depends on our schedules as to how many people show up.Sometimes there is 3 and other times there is 15.

It would be nice to see you there.Just be on the lookout for a white 91 Trans Am and an 86 camaro SC.
Todd and I will be there for sure.
