[zimmy]

popped up at my mothers today for
her first ride...she didnt even know it
was going already ; )
shes about 50 sumptin....not toooo old...haha
we got up to 4000 rpm in 2nd and she
was ready to slow down! haha

when u rev it WAY beyond what
most people hear in their hondas, that
scares the crap out of em on their
first midget ride!
everyone is suprised they fit in the car!

Go Zimmy go. Heh, your mom is a young woman.

One of the best trips in my Sprite was with my friend's 80 year old stepdad, whom I have know since I was twelve. He is a car nut with 3 women in the family who don't share his love of autos, so we have a great time chatting when he gets over this way. Don't think I could have driven it fast enough for him!

Ya'll are making me jealous. I have had to put my hobby aside for a while to do other projects on the home this summer. I would much rather be playing with the midget in the cool basement rather than laying brick in the 80-90 degree weather, but this is something I must get done.

80-90! ur lucky, it was 105 here yesterday!
black midget seats are VERY hot these days! ; )..zzimmmy

Zimmy,

So cool, that she got in it. When I was a kid, Mom would drive us around in a 62 Midget. When it died, Dad bought an XKE. I remember talking to the transmision cover in the back (between the two seat pads) telling him to go faster. hehehe.

When she got older she wouldn't get in the MG, and very rarely the Jag.

Maybe we should have a post of parents tales with LBC's!
