Made the final adjustments to the route last night. Should be a great evening with good food and a great drive.

Sure.

Al - we look forward to seeing you in a truck or car.
Thanks. I think I'm bringing my S! Its difficult to get my mega-Lab and some luggage in the S, but top-down is really the only way to see the lights.

Regards,

Al

had fun. glad that HPPD suv let us off easy.

it looked like my car was smoking while we were driving in my rearview / side mirrors. did anyone behind my car (no trq plate) see it smoking while we were just cruising?

it usually puffs a bit at the vtec changeover but i've never seen it smoking any other time.

maybe it was just the weather... or all of my mirrors are foggy? kinda paranoid though. i didnt see it smoking when i got home so i figured i'd ask.

I was thinking the same thing. A few times I looked back and thought my car was shooting white smoke out, it does that occasionally when I take it past 7000 rpm. I think some of the roads were just dusty and we were kicking it up.

HPPD said we were doing 45 in a 30 but I don't recall even doing that. He basically just said slow down and went on his way, not a big deal.

Thanks for setting up the dinner and drive Dave!
