Yep we need more sleep as we get older happens to me too, but it's because I am a night owl!

Cool seeing a show about a car you drove

I found my car on the Hot Rod Power Tour video clip............that was pretty awesome for me

When the auction vehicles are unloaded from the transport trucks, they are brought to an area where they are video'd. We start them, make sure they go forward, backward, and have brakes. After this check in, they are driven to their assigned parking spot until it is their turn on the stage.

Howdy crew. Yep, I am not a morning person at all so mornings tend to be a challenge. All my clients showed up in Springfield today which is good. I already got all my doccumenting done so free as a bird now for the weekend. I will probably leave a little early too since I sat at that health fair last evening.

Very cool about the show Rick! And that your car was in the video clip Diane. I am a sucker for all those car shows. Watch them all any chance I get.

If you look in earlier posts on this thread, I posted up a few photos of the vehicles I drove. I deleted all of the photos.

It is a cool job, but it is hard work. One day I worked 16 hours.

If you ever get the chance to drive one, and drive it hard . . . just do it.

Hooked On Driving is in some sort of partnership with Chevy and they're offering a one lap ride in a 7th gen Stingray around a real road course, followed by one lap where you drive. All I can say is - what a machine. Brakes that are utterly amazing, and cornering grip that you'd just have to experience.

Wonder if they'll let people take another of those rides/drives today.

Good morning crew. I got to sleep in this morning & boy did it feel good. I need a job that starts at like 10:00 close to home. Heading out today to do a little shopping, pick up the new, new camera & eat out. it is raining & yucky.

I just realized last night that I will not get to have my headers & tune installed before our club's Spring Fling drag race & car show event. I'm really bummed about that. I better get moving. Have a great Saturday crew.

Good morning crew. It is supposed to be sunny here & mild but not warm. It will be nice to at least see the sun. No big plans for the day but hope to get outside some if it warms up enough. Happy Sunday all.
