Wedge My buddy's TR8 coupe to be in Sports & Exotic

My friend David Hayden attended the Road Atlanta race and show last month, drove his resto-mod TR8 coupe all the way from Louisiana. He said he had a great time but the <span style="font-style: italic">piece de resistance</span> came when Hemmings Sports & Exotic approached him and asked if they could do a photo shoot on his TR8. Dave said he was giggling the whole time. They did a 3 hour photo shoot from every possible angle, parked and at speed. They are supposed to feature it in the coming months. What a thing to look forward to. Good on you, Dave.

Excellent. That is a great magazine. I look forward to reading the article about the TR8.

I wish I could get my hands on an 8 before all the publicity! They're expensive enough as it is!

Bill,

Thanks for the compliment, but I'd just settle for being able to drive "at speed" right now. This break in stuff is borrrrr-innnng.

Paul, you should just put the car up on jack stands and run it night and day a la Ferris Beuller's Day Off. Do the break in while you sleep!

My poor frozen wife and I just got back from about 100 miles of driving and even though the heater works great, it really was cold tonight when the sun went down and the NW wind moved in. 52 degrees and 70MPH makes for a cold ride on the highway when there is no sun and the top is down.

John, if it doesn't stop raining and warm up soon, that idea is sounding better and better........
