Wasn't me! But you can imagine all the sun that everyone was getting was very harsh! It was necessary for some to put their top up because they were lobsters ;D

The computer wasn't excessively warm or anything and seemed OK, so I moved all of the files into it. Shortly thereafter, it started freezing up. I had to do a hard reboot and it kept freezing, so I did a system restore. When I did that, it couldn't find some portion of my user profile, so it used a temproary one. I eventually got it back to normal, but I can't find those pics. I do have about 15 or so that I was able to transfer back into the camera when things were looking bad, but those were all I could save, and they're not that great.
Reed, you know with my past detective experience I can conduct a hard interview and get a confession out of him. I have plenty of phone books.

Sonic Takeover




madmods and I took the ride alone back to Phoenix so we could get there as fast as possible.
Got back in like 4.5 hours doing about speed limit or so.


And here is a video of sonic. I just walked around with my little photo camera shooting a video of what I saw. No one knew I was doing it so I had to shoo em away.

Well, here is a start

We met Roy on the way down. He was the guy I most wanted to have a beer with. But I never found him when beer was available.



Great Cars








The "other" V8.



A better shot.



The beauty on the right is my wife.

OK, some more.




Al and Vicky, new friends from BC.



That's us.




Who is that fat guy?



The host and hostus. Thanks guys for a great event.





Yep, this is the Colorado Highway Patrolman, and his ride-along possible new recruit, who stopped us on the way home, for no front plate. No ticket, he just wanted to see the car.
Joe on the left, and Eric on the right.

Red Rock

At Red Rock we ran into a dozen 350z's that followed us out of the park. I loved the sound of those VQ six cylinder engines, two of which were supercharged. The yellow and red supercharged cars made a sound that sent chills up my spine.

People out and about...

The following several posts are just pictures of people driving their cars out and about on the runs. My humble apologies for not having the opportunity to get more of these pictures.

If you find yourself here and can't "Save Picture" and you want a copy, PM me and I will e-mail them to you. I don't know most folks by name, so just let me know which picture number you want me to e-mail to you.

Here are pictures 001 to 005
