    Agreed! Also, I'm a little surprised the pictures are not "blurry" from all that "quivering" that was going on. Must be the image stabilization at work! :)

    We usually start across the street at the Shell because there is more parking. May have to change that.

    The new roads were tested on the way up to Brunos and they passed with a 'Willis Worthy' thumbs up.

    I will have to find out what Carly's schedule is so it coincides.

    When you do get over it, trust me, its worth getting dirty for the great people at these events!

    Dana, thanks for the Kudos and the Great Drive! I'll be spending a full day getting Sophia cleaned up, but again, it was worth it!

    Dave Handa, I very much enjoyed the time you spent with me getting me up to speed with all the details of 308 "correctness."

    Willis, thanks for the escort up to exit 208 from Northgate...I will give even more leeway behind Modenas in the future...they like to spit fine grit up in the air!

    To everyone else I met Sunday, great to meet you...see you for the next event.

    A funny thing happened when I left the party, my car developed an exhaust leak, the one cylinder kind. Holy crap, the header's loose from the head??? Well I got the car home and had to blast off on a 3-day trip. I worried for these 3 days of the major PITA this would be to get to and correct. Finally I was able to get to the car today. I found that one of the four CO plugs, of the rear bank's exhaust manifold, decided to un-thread itself...by God, after 100 miles, it decided to stay for the ride. The photo shows it just to the left of a properly seated plug. A new copper washer and anti-seize, all's well.

    Peter, I hope it didn't do any damage to your paint. The 360's rear diffusor channel quite a bit of air at speed. In heavy rain it produces a nice rooster tail.

    Glad it wasn't a cracked manifold Peter, THAT would have been a PITA.

    I know, since I'm married to this car, I'll just have to take it as it comes! The loose plug in the photo wedged itself in place! I had to carefully pry it loose from the position shown in the photo to get it into my hand.

    Then I checked all the others, one of the four didn't have a washer. The #4 cyl's plug was THE PITA. I had to remove the air-pump to get it back in properly. PeterB.

    None from you I'm sure, but I figured it out pretty quickly...plus in the back of my mind I read about this Modena thing here on the NW forum-Don't follow too closely!

    Now you know why I followed you in a staggered, different lane "wing-man" technique;) up to exit 208. PeterB.
