After nearly 2 months of straight rain here in the NW, I decided to get out and do a little spring cleaning while listening to my favorite song.

Donny -

Ya, that was my spring "shake-down" last year.

Randy - much more past that the neighbors get very unruly.

Dude, your car is da ****!!! I'm dying to get back on the road !! I've watched that video 5 times now and it gets my blood pumpin' more every time. I especially get on the edge of my seat on that one turn when the back end gets loose. WOW !!Maybe someday you can set the camera angle so we can see the RPMs your shifting at. I think I'm gonna' go watch that again right now !!!

Randy-

I love that kart of yours! ....I learned to drive in a home built special my dad put together with some scrap pipe and a worn-out B & S 3 1/2 hp motor. The spoiled kid down the block raced a twin McCulloch. Man...........I hated him.

No need to curb <span style="font-style: italic">enthusiasm</span>, but please just be a little bit careful about how you express it! :laugh:

You'll find that I am an extremely light-handed Moderator and have never tossed anyone, and have deleted a grand total of maybe 4-5 posts in over nine years at this! The folks here in the Austin-Healey Forum are exceptionally well behaved - except of course for Keoke and anthony7777, but they keep us entertained without doing too much serious damage, so that's just the price of running a classy joint like this. :cheers:
