that’s what I told myself when only 1 car saw what was going down., he saw it all & was shocked I didn’t go down the mountain. Got a call from a taltal loss adjuster & he tried to undervalue it😡 I’d sent him every picture & receipt & told him to fix it, he’d said well over $20,000.00 in damages . So I did get what it was worth & was allowed to take all my aftermarket stuff ‘ replace the stock stuff. So my A.M laxer etched valve covers, both K&N’s lit sill plates, staggered bullitts ,to sell off if I don’t find another.

Wow, scary stuff man. That's horrible.
At least the car is totaled and you got your aftermarket stuff back. I would want my car to be totaled so I could buy another one instead of going through the repair process. All set with that.

Good luck going forward!!

Not sure I like this autoload feature on page-up. Seems like it hides some of the posts when you try to get back to the bottom.

Drained my catchcan. About 5000 miles, half full. I think it's the first time I've opened the hood this year. Got the can off no problem, dumped it out, went to screw it back on, but it just wouldn't catch the threads. Must have been ten minutes, trying to get the angle just right, pushing it this way and that way as I turned it, checking if it's cross-threaded, just couldn't get the right angle-of-the-dangle.

Then I realized I was turning it the same way I had when I was unscrewing it.
Just so you know, these things go on easy as pie when you turn them the right way. Y'all can have that tip for free.

Going to get the 302S Beast from Palmer Racing Development after he trimmed out over 120 lbs of ugly fat, ha. Excited to go get the Boss with the mods and lightened weight as now there is only 3 weeks till our first race in our NASA Region ( missing the first one in my SCCA Region as not enough time to make this month's event). Car was just way to heavy for it's class and nice to be fairly trim -- now the driver needs to shed 15 pounds ,ha.

Another beautiful spring day. Sure not 65°, only 53° today, but no rain! Enjoyed a nice drive. Have put about 70 miles on the car so far this year. Boy I have missed driving this beast!

Can't wait to burn off that storage fuel so I can return to using my Track key. Miss that lopey idle.

Awesome man!!!
I would have taken my machine out, but I had to work this morning. I think I'll give the truck a nice wash.
Enjoy brother!!

Haven't done anything to mine or my wife's since October last year.
I have to do oil changes on both, brake fluid flushes on both, lube up the Watts Links on both, and for her car I have to swap the factory wheels back on (the spring ritual until potholes are somewhat fixed), and also for her car I need to get a new battery.
