    the wife and I are playing paper, rock scissors to see who gets to do dead mans curve. By the way....paper can wrap up scissors so they can't cut right?

    trust me on this, hopefully Jennie isn't watching because I'm 100 and 0 for paper/rock/scissor matches with her over lifetime. if you have watched the world championships at 3:30 AM on some obscure 4-digit numbered channel then you know there IS skill involved. :D

    Play #1 is right before the countdown say something like "you are sexy" and she will throw down scissors more than 50% of the time. You can do it otherwise like "lets rock and roll" for rock and "play on" for paper.

    Play #2 is when they think they have outsmarted you and figured out your ploy, then you say the same thing, but predict they will throw down whatever will beat what will beat what they think you expect them to throw.

    Play #3 is when they then figure out that you have figured out that they have figured the ploy out. Then you can reverse right back on them staying always a step ahead you and too can have a lifetime rock/paper/scissors record of 100-0!

    :D:D:D

    Lesson #2 will be the false lead on: holding your hand the entire time until the slap like you are going to throw something and then switch it to what will beat if they throw what will beat what they thought you were throwing. :rolleyes: :eek: :D

    BTW, sorry I can't make the rally. I will be doing the hill country at 225 MPH, unfortunately at 6k feet. :)

    it is! all relative, I think 80 mph in a kart = 120 mph on motorcycle = 170 mph in a Ferrari = Mach 2 in a plane. :D

    only good thing about a plane is the 3rd access rotation, in a car rotating on that 3rd access is a bad thing! keep the rubber side down, except in a plane. ;)

    stop actually driving the car and having so much dang passion! I bet you are some hotshot that knows what country Maranello is in too. maybe you can trailer your car around the rally Saturday so that it won't have any bugs on it for the lawn at Boardwalk the next week! :D the real Ferrari owners don't drive them, they are for show only, works of art I tell you! ;) somebody stop me now, I have to go kill some bugs with the plane. I have found less residue to clean hitting them at 275 MPH. :D

    Two late entries perhaps the mercurial 458 Italia of Mr. F. and a new member with a 2010 California. OMG I hope it doesn't get any bugs on it, in any event at least it is not some itinerant starter car! Therefore, I guess it can lead all of the beater cars down the roads.

    Maybe at the restaurant we will have a judging for the car with the most bug splatters on the front end and on the mirrors. If you trailer your car it is disqualified. Here are a couple, of a particular yellow Ferrari that seems to attract them. Am I in the running?:D The last one gives a whole new meaning to "Fly Yellow"

    Thanks to Don and Caroline for setting up the run. Good folks, beautiful weather, great roads, and a juggling act at the restaurant. What more could one hope for?

    No pics from me, unfortunately; the camera was DOA.

    Will load some pics from my end a little later. I got some killer pics to share. Ditto to what Tillman said about thanking Don and his lovely bride for all the work they went to!

    Everything was great with the exception of the poor guy going airborne in his pickup gawking at us!
