C&C West Chester 12/21

The temperature looks good, but the roads are awful. I'll probably stop by, it's just a matter of which car, depending on road conditions.

 

I'm more than likely will be there

 

I'm in...the last forecast I saw said rain Saturday though! Regardless, my car is going to Algar for her annual service tomorrow after C&C.

 

I'm out, flying to Munich tonight to pick up my 650 Gran Coupe...

I'll be out for most of January as well as I'll be heading to Singapore for work.

See you all towards the end of January!

 

What an exciting Six weeks for you!! Be Safe...Be Well.....Drive Fast!! Jon

 

Im in...Weather like this is Porsche Turbo Convertible Weather. Jon in Delaware

 

Thanks Jon!

 

I have to drop off my loaner at Otto's anyway so I will see everybody in the AM.

 

I might swing by...just to watch Joe and that Dave guy race for pinks (psst, Joe, bring the MGB...just saying).

 

I would love to come but Jay and I are cracking away at the MGB with every free moment. Feel free to stop by afterwards!

Nice pics. Even the salty TR7 doesn't look bad. I just realized I didn't get the full story on your Supra issues...hope you get them resolved. Also a round of applause for the multiple owners who brought out their F-cars in the salt.
Most important: thanks Brit for giving me a chance to drive your Elise. DAMN, what a great machine!!!

 

Paul is right, the roads were really crappy on the roads I use to get to Starbucks. Hat's off to you all! Thanks for the pics as always Alex.

 

Nice turnout. Looks like Algar is well stocked for Christmas (hint, hint ).

I'll be out of town next Saturday too, but I'll be ready for a New Year's Day Drive. Anyone interested can send a PM to me.

 

Interesting day yesterday. Since getting the car, first time out in the sun, and we noticed a battery tether, so when I got home opened up the panels first behind the passenger then driver to trace and ensure that is what the line was. There was a teether connected to the fuses on the driver side. Closed everything up then started the car. Ohh great the F1 failure idiot light is on. What happened, and thinking the worse, then figured I must have pulled something when putting the panels on. Checked the driver side-all seems good, then the passenger side and there was one coupling that seemed loose opened it and replugged. Once completed ran a test and started the car. Oh joy the F1 was working. I chalk that one up to divine inspiration.

Put the panels back on being really careful. Started up the car again and noticed the engine light was on. Is this new, or did I not not noticed this before. Got the OBDII from the tool box, and plugged her in. She came back with a comm link failure, or O2 sensor problem. Next to the web, and found a possible cause was a blown fuse. Guess where?

Opened up the panels and checked the fuses all seemed ok, but one seemed a bit unseeded. Reseeded it and started the car and thank be the lord all was working.

Once again was really -really careful and put the panels back on and everything stayed great.

Then it was time to wash the car.

I was thanking God soooo much afterwards. This could have been a flat bed moment.

Great seeing everyone yesterday and look forward to the good weather returning. Hope Bob gets well soon so he can come out and play.

Alex thanks for the pic.

Thanks for the thoughts Steve. She looks beautiful out in the great outdoors .
Was hoping to great Josh to drive me up in the morning, but had 101 fever Friday night and massive swelling and pain in foot.
Well , back in the hospital for emergency operation to remove heavy infected bone and tissue. Hopefully I will keep the toe. This is getting funner and funerer. But someday I will be back to drive with yous guyzs!

 

Ohh Bob. This is nasty. Good your keeping an upper lip and taking this in stride. Feel better soon and hope to see your well.

 

Bob, don't try to do too much too soon. Please get well soon, and get that infection taken care of.

 

No no, thank you! Always weird trying to get out of the passenger seat...

 

I will keep you in my prayers Bob. Get well soon and have a great holiday.

It was good seeing everybody yesterday. Hopefully this rain will clean all the salt off the roads and open us up for a big turnout next weekend. Hopefully I will see everybody on the 28th.

 

Thanks!

Welcome!

Yes, people are slacking! Where's Joe Mac when you need him? Someone needs to pick up the Rosso Mugello California to match their 599G/Scud. The white 458 with matte black roof was a C&C attendee before, should keep her in the family. Finally, that TDF FF would surely be better than say a Tahoe or an BMW M.

Oooh boy, welcome back to the club! LOL, glad it seems to have worked out! And you're welcome!

 

Thanks for the picture, Alex (red spider 360) - haven't been back to C&C since 12-21. We're in hibernation...
