Oh, and CA Patty, I still have some tread left on the rears, and the light rain shower I drove through today was no problem, but I'm still getting new tires before another run in the NSX.

Just ordered Continental Extreme Contact DW's for the front and rear. These have extremely good reviews and ratings on Tire Rack's website, and will be installed Thursday or Friday. Now, I need to spend several hours
the NSX to get all the bugs, road dirt, etc. off.
1. I was going to get those also, but ended up with Michelin Sport Pilots instead.
2. I will spend 20 minutes at the car wash with the foaming brush in my hands, ha! Sorry, it's my work car!

I was thinking the same thing. 20 Minutes with a "brush"?

On my way home via US RT 50 I got "clobbered" with some heavy thunder storms that caused mud and debris to wash across the road. I changed the oil last night after turning 105,000 miles on the way home and still have to wash "my baby" inside and out. Time to spend some time on the leather, etc.

1. Yes, 20 minutes at the self-car wash does it for me, which I know is a disappointment to all, but, I work 70 hrs./week, and if I don't have to work but 25 hrs. like this week, I have a list as long as my elbow of things to do, and spending 2 days cleaning the car isn't there. Sorry!

Look who was @ the door, when we arrived !!!



Then off to Ken's "Dinner"...!!! OMG...this was great



...after the awesome dinner...we went outside the Leevee House,



OMG....What a view of the old man river.....






The next morning, as we began to congregate for the "Driver's Meeting"



Then we headed out....the first destination !!!!


All I gotta say is.... This thing is amazing !!!!





...Just to catch this view......



...and a portion of the "S"....line-up !!! ( ..and some other little silver roadster !!! )




...off to lunch !!!!
What great sandwiches !!!!! I had a "GIANT" burger, 8oz. beef pattie, 2 slices of cheese, ham & bacon...plus all the trimmings !!!!



Sorry I didn't get any good pics of the drive, itself...
...with Sam's pace..most of my time was spent concentrating on staying on Greg's bumper, both hands on the wheel, and Gene glued to my bumper....Sharon & I had an awesome time...Can hardly wait till next year....
Thanks to everyone !!!
....and maybe we will see some of you @ the Gettysburg Gathering
