Anyone else wishing to join us for Halloween morning? Watching Kindergartners in costumes and extending our best wishes to those in the Alzheimer's facility. We WILL bring back some memories and represent our club.

I mAy be there. Assume it is at the address in 1st post

Fitz · #24 (**permalink**) 10-31-2013, 10:24 AM

I tried!? Drove by address few times. Could see some activity in back of addressed place but no way of getting to it? Thought there would be sign or someone telling me to pull in. Maybe they forgot as I was late? 9:40am

Very interesting couple of days. 8:30am this morning we had Cobra Keith, Bill B and me show up for the show. Mike Brasfield arrived about 30 minutes later with a need for radiator fluid. He had a leak on the way. Upon moving our cars to the grassy show area my slave cylinder mount bolt broke. So, flatbed all the way home via AAA. Showed up abut 9:30am. Should be a simple fix, I hope. The wife totaled her Highlander yesterday. She is OK. Got T-Boned during a left turn. Yup, she got the ticket too. Other car, a Lancer, totaled too. Can't wait to see how much this costs. Already rented car for the mean time.
What's next?

Ouch, ouch and a big ouch. Glad to hear Sandy id OK.

Now may be time to get the slave mounting to incorporate 2 bolts.

Hope Sandy is OK today. I know you work later so is there anything she needs? We can fix the slave mount and this time it needs a different mounting bracket. Let me know.

Wow, Bad day at Blackrock.

Really glad to hear Sandy is okay. If you need anything, I'm just a few blocks away.

My car is fixed. Just had to replace 1 big bolt. Gave out after loosening and tightening too many times since 1999. Finally gave out. New one is identical. Should last another 14 years. Feels right. Sandy's car will be appraised on Monday so I'll know more which way to go on fix or replace. She is already shopping for new SUV.

Bob...I had a heater separate a few days before the run. Put it back together but didn't top it off before coming over. Added water at the site and no problems on the way home. Temp never went above 180 F.

By the way, thanks for organizing the event. One old fellow got in my car, closed the door and wouldn't budge for 30 min. Staff had to lift him out and he was not ready to quit "driving" the cobra.

That guy sitting in your car was Fitz, wasn't it? Maybe you didn't recognize him without his wearing Gordon's driving suit, that made him look like the Michelin Man.

Mike Brasfield · #33 (**permalink**) 11-04-2013, 04:14 PM

Now that, for those that didn't see Fitz, really is a good description of Fitz as he geared up for his sessions.

Mike Brasfield · #34 (**permalink**) 11-04-2013, 04:16 PM

Keep us updated on the total issue Bob.

It was a bit big but worked good
