I see your point. my buddy taught me a "hesitation on the pedal" move when i first raced my Monza.
that was a funny car most monzas you see racing have 305s and 350s, mine was a swapped LD5 Buick V6 to make people understand what the motor was I called it 3800 Series 0, because it came before Series 1 lol

Hi `Keane, I really don't know how anyone can get bored if they are fortunate to be connected to the World (www) I never get bored if I can get online & visit my good friend Mr Google . I get lonely when I'm away from my Beach Bum Family & friends, but I really never get bored...There's just to much to explore & learn...

Oh, the price of gas went up about 25 cents a gallon this week It's still under $2.00 a gal., but I sure hope it doesn't go higher...

Is it going up in your area ?

Wish you a non-boring eve..4-Sure!

Oh, what's for dinner ? (I'm always hungry) Can you drive down & pick me `up ?

We can stop @ Daytona's Bike Week (LOL)

Afternoon guys. My daily check in while I look over weather models. Monday definitely looked chaseable on the last runs, so we'll see what the latest runs say. Y'all have a good one.

Hi SgtMajor `Drew,
You are one of the few people I know that looks/searches for Bad weather to chase. Most are Sea Captains & Boaters. They are constantly checking the weather & looking for storms. I on the other hand like to run from them...I've had a bad relationship with Mother Nature...Lol

Continued good luck to you on your job search (Maybe you could get a job as a weatherman ?
Peace/Out from `Mike

Lol Mike, it's been a passion of mine since I was a little kid. As soon as I finally had my own car, I went from just tracking them on radar to actually chasing them. Some years I've been able to chase more than others. This year is the earliest I've been able to get any chasing in, although 2008, 2012 and 2013 I would have been able to chase early setups then had I not been in class (2008) or at work (2012 and 13)
