It's going to be an awsome weekend! Only downside is it's going to be hot & humid tonight at the track... so I know I'm not going to break any personal records tonight

I'm working on my car tomorrow... finally. Front shocks going in, gonna get the console out in prep for the tranny swap, and if I'm feeling energetic, and my help wants to stick around for the whole day tomorrow and we don't too many beers, I think we're gonna drop the fuel tank and install the racetronix kit. Should be about a whole day worth of work, motor should be done in a couple weeks, so it's time to get the car ready!

I cruised down to Newport for dinner and then hung at one of the local clubs for the rest of the night. Will be getting about 5 hours sleep and then out early in the morning. Promised a friend I'd take him out jet skiing so we'll be on the water by 8am. Getting back by 12:30, shower and then out with the wife. She'll have a few hours with me for lunch/drinks at the Newport Beach Club (yeah, I like it down there). Come home to take my daughter to the Westport Fair around 6 and then out with friends by 9. Up around 10am on Sunday and then to the DUB car show at the Expo Center. I've been wanting to check that out for a few years. Dinner and drinks at the Regatta after that and then home by 11 to get some sleep to start the new week.

We need longer weekends!

Tom, I saw your car parked outside the Regatta...Listen, some ******* took a parking ticket off your car and threw it...Be warned you got a parking ticket, I didnt realize it was your vette or what he had done until he was in his car...I seriously wanted to bang him out.....Just giving you a heads up so you dont get all kinds of late fees on this.

Hey, thanks! I thought I was the special one. We came out and saw there were tickets on all the other cars but none on mine. I'd appreciate it if you can send it to me. Actually, I'd appreciate it more if you paid it

You can send it to the shop -

Westport, MA. 02790

Thanks again!!!!

The DUB car show was interesting. Probably not something that alot of you guys would get into but there were some nice cars and ALOT of eye candy! I've included a required "eye candy" pic. Also met Darryl from RUN DMC. Yeah, that's going way back!
