We took it easier in the second year due to some law enforcement issues at the end of year one's run
It's a very nice drive up to Crater Lake. Nice roads!

Anyway, Officer Friendly saw the whole thing and Jeff/Bob was nailed for Reckless driving and spent a lot of time in Oregon courts getting it taken care of. He lost his license for a year I believe. The 2 speeding tix on the way up didn't help either

Yeah, that definately put a damper on his weekend.. The reckless driving deal was BS though! Damn locals!

I thought it was a joke, but it wasn't, it was like they'd never seen that many cool cars at a light.

I'll never forget that one
Ah yes, our trip to Carl's Jr. I remember that too!! Too funny!

damn, you guys are at it again.

im getting my tires replaced today, so I took off the old tires and the passenger side one was cut in 3 or 4 different places. I found pieces of bone on my suspension and tire. The steel radial is exposed. It looks like the plastic cover under the motor took most of the beating, the oil pan had a little debri on it. I just gotta do an extensive cleaning and have the shop check it out. Wish me luck.

Hope your car doesn't smell like you've been hauling cadavers.

Pressure wash the underside at a car wash so you can get a good look underneath. Hopefully it's just the engine cover.

Right now, it kinda does...I did clean it off a bit though. I'm gonna bring gloves and cleaner to the shop while the car is on the lift to clean it off. It's just NASTY.

Yesterday I heard noise coming from passenger side... noise was coming at low speed accelerating from 0 to 10, sounded like something rubbing so I inspected the car and saw that side skirt is coming off. Could it be side skirt rubbing or what?
