back from semi-retirement, or at least it feels like it after 2 weeks, and ready to go.
Kev, I saw your email about not being able to make it to Bragg-Smith. Sorry about that, and I hope everything is O.K. with you and your family.
Jonah looks like a fine healthy young man in the photo you posted.
Have a great day all.
Hey 'Bo - left Florida through all that rain from Barry. Man - when it rains there - IT POURS!!

Wecome back Hawkeye...and yep, the rain do come down pretty hard here from time to time...there have been times when there is no way the wipers can clear it off fast enough...
...really get's exciting when you're cruising along at 70 and get hit with one of those cloudbursts...
...talk about the proverbial pucker factor...
...although driving into one of those Midwestern dust storms or Southwestern sand storms can be equally exciting...
...the kind of excitement one can do well without...
Have a GR8 1 y'all...

Good Morning
Nice to see you back safe and sound, Hawkeye (and family).
Had our first ever CASCAR event in Winnipeg over the weekend ... a roadcourse certainly doesn't generate the same excitement live as an oval

Yes ... "märSSupial" ... with be there ... as will 99-C219

Hey, I'll be there, don't I count? Steve's the only one that gets to go around the track.....I'll be sitting on the sidelines.
Posted by DanA_F99_1977 (Member # 118) on :
Ahhh Teri, but you would probably still prefer to be at the track, unlike my most loving sweetheart who wants to see nice scenery that she can paint when she comes home, or maybe shop!! She doesn't care how wel we hit the apex or rev match our downshifts.
Possum, maybe you can that your car on the track for a few laps!! It will be interesting to compare it to stock cars! Grace will be very happy to hear that Marion will be there!!!!!

I'll be happy to chauffer the rest of the sidelined wives around town! I promise to show them what I learned in class last year. Posted by poSSum (Member # 119) on :
DanEh ... I have every intent of doing that. I should have the KD's on by then.
Help me to convince Hawkeye to upgrade to the 'vette program. Then all four of us "blended" types can ride around in Z06's .... that way, even if some of the rookies outdrive us, they'll never know
Posted by DanA_F99_1977 (Member # 118) on :
Whadda ya say Hawkeye!! It sounds like a great plan to me. The only down side is you'll want one after you drive it. The up side is you can buy mine! I think that would be great. I think one of the mods I want in mine is a good seat.
By the way, I am finally reading All Corvette's are red. In between the other reading I am doing, Possum (March 18). Possum is right. It should be required reading. Carfano is another Paisan!!
I have seen JeffY mentioned twice already! Very cool.
Posted by Hawkeye (Member # 88) on :
O.K. - count me in - if y'all are doing the Vette course I will too!
Debbie just called from Bragg-Smith to update my credit card.
Art, will you notify them or shall I?
P.S. Mary and perhaps 2 of the kids will be coming to Skyline this year. Any one else be there?
Brian.

I'll let 'em know.

It was a good day for about 45 minutes. Then I found out I will be out of a job late this year or early next.
I knew it was going to happen next year, I just thought I would have enough time to get my associates.
I hope I can find a good job or I won't be part of this group anymore.

that's a drag indeed.
Do you meet Thursday nights at the A & W.
I was thinking of going over this week.
Posted by DanA_F99_1977 (Member # 118) on :
Good luck sunset. That is a drag!! My last day is Sept 7.
Hawkeye, if we take the SS, Danis will probably come with us. If we take the Z, then it will be just me and Grace.
