Well, today when I went to work on my car I was looking for some tools and could not find them anywhere. At that point I noticed a bunch of my stuff was gone. My garage had been burglarized. Fortunately they did not take very much, but it still hurt. I figure about $500 worth of stuff was taken. I called the police and they sent over a cruiser to dust for fingerprints and take a report. I am keeping everything locked up tight from now on.
Here is a picture – you can see the fingerprint dust on my tool box.
We were all out celebrating a friend’s birthday at Dave & Busters today. They had this game machine where the object of the game was to hit the button at exactly the point where the light bar is on the "Bonus!" line. The light bar moves up very quickly. I thought… "I can do this!" I applied what I learned drag racing to this game. I covered up the lights below the jackpot line and just stared at the jackpot line. After letting the light bar go by a few times, I hit the button and wham… jackpot! 350 or so tickets start spitting out at me from the machine.
Here are a few photos I found, mostly of Keven, from the day of the 6th ADRA race. This is the race that got rained out during the 2nd time trials run.
Today was a company holiday so I stayed home with the wife and family. There are only 11 more days until our Canadian friend, Andy, comes to visit and races my car at Southwestern International Raceway. I figured I’d make and send him a video that he can use to learn the finer points of operating my automobile.
Well, the race got rained out! But I was able to make two passes before they called the race. If you watch the second inside video below, you can hear a spot right before the finish line where the RPM shoots up suddenly a couple of brief times. That is where my slicks lost traction due to the rain. My car was the last one they sent down the track before they shut everything down. Here they are!
