You see, the car is the first 30K you spend.

Then you add in a couple of mods.

Along the way, you purchase two way radios. Then you have the meets, you rent a hotel room and buy gas for the car to get to the meets. Don't forget the digital camera you must have to take pics of said meets, and dial up internet is no longer any good as it takes too long to view the pics of the meets. At the meets you add in, dinner, T shirts, magnets, maybe a few drinks?

Oh, and check your cell phone plan to be sure you have nationwide coverage so you don't get hit with major roaming charges while on the meets/drives.

The cars will eat tires, even more so if you AutoX or just misbehave in general by


So, when you look back in a few years, you probably will have spent enough money that you could have bought a Porsche, but you would not have had any of the fun you are having with the "S" crowd. So enjoy!

OK, I know this was off topic..........again.

On topic..........I wish we were going to this meet!

You forgot to end all that with - ".....Priceless. For all you do, there's Vintage."

Confirmed at the Hilton and the Hampton.

Take it easy on Shelly at the Hampton though, she's all by herself and a little stressed.

I do too, Lainey. I mean who else can back me up as good as you did at SF. When I heard your voice calling out to everyone else on the radio that I had lost it, I knew that I was still on this side and the sound of your voice is now stuck in my head so now I want to hear your voice on the radio with every run I make from here on out. It was the sweetest sound I've ever heard because I thought the next voice I heard would be St. Peter's.

I'm not even sure that was me on the radio! I know I used it, but I think someone else may have made the first report. I'm glad it was one of us and NOT St. Peter that you heard!

Why are you always trying to get me in even more trouble that I'm already in. Some pal! Guess I need to make reservations. I'm afraid though until I get used to my car again once I get it back. Looks like it's going to take three more weeks, not giving me much time before this meet.

Mr. C., I think I should be placed on the tentative list for now. This car thing's got me spooked.

Don't be spooked sweetie, just drive at your own pace. And I'm sure everyone will accomodate you in any way, just so long as you're there.
