Hey y-all.
I know I haven't been posting much since my last trip or two -or TR3 failure or two. But, I do read the forum several times a week. Occasionally if I think I have something to add, I will, but I don't log in very often. Know that I am thinking about our hobby and the other knuckleheads dedicated to it.
Anyway, I thought I'd share this picture taken last week at our club autocross at the police academy. My car was in good form and I feel I drove it well -even if the police Explorer beat my time. As an extra bonus this year I did not need to be taken home on a flat bed. Actually, for Easter, I plan to pick up my wife at the airport, in Pittsburgh Pa, in the TR3. According to Google, it's 1,350 miles from here so I will leave earlier than she does. The odd thing about this trip, is this time I think the car will make it without any problems. The odometer shows I've put a little over 20,000 miles on it and I think it's done breaking in. -I don't know what might break next, but keep me in your positive thoughts.
While I'm rambling, I'd like to say how much I've enjoyed catching up on the last 2 years of Johns (CJD) life with his TR2. Somehow, until last week, I never read that thread. Reading it from beginning to end, required me to also look thru all my old pictures. I wish that thread was there when I was doing my body work. Even then, John tried to explain shrinking/stretching and I still don't get it. The work is incredible and the documentation is amazing. Thank you John.
