Just got back from a 100+ mile drive - she did beautifully! I checked the mileage, and got 25.4 mgp on a drive with lots of twisties. Found a couple of issues to clear up, but so far it looks like VTR's a go!

Now, just have to get the A/C hooked up...

I am so jealous... I would love to have my 8 swap done by the VTR but I still would not be able to go so I would be twice as sad...

...Followin' one of my parishioners on his Harley!

Great ride - nearly 100 switchbacks in 14 miles. Our version of "Tail of the Dragon"... "Dragon's Nub"?

Y'all gotta git you one of these hyar TR8's. They're WAAY too much fun!

Now you can "Go in peace" to VTR. Would love to be there also but, even though I won't be, have one on me.
