Random thoughts and happenings

So, I find myself with some actual FREE time on a Friday night. I've not really written much in the past month or so, and I figured "why not..."

The car is racking up the miles pretty damn quick. Less than 3 yrs old, and over 112,000 miles on it. I really can't complain about it's performance in that time. I've only changed regular wear items, like brakes and spark plugs. Changed the fuel injectors @ 95K... as well as the clutch. I even put new shocks all around...
The latest round of 'repairs' I'm doing is a new exhuast. It arrived today and will go on before my next event.

I've been car shopping for next season's choice, and as stated in a previous post, it's been rather daunting. I'll be heading to a big car show / meet this weekend to find some worthy candidates. I really wish my travel companion was able to make this trip.

Work has been busy as always. Many of our projects are running full steam and show no signs of slowing. As luck would have it, I will be going on vacation soon...

Vacation is kinda strange way to put it. While it's time away from work, it's hardly "vacation" in a normal sense. I'll be busier and a heck of alot more tired, and when I come back, I'll need a vacation to regroup...lol

I've been getting some good driving feedback and some seat time in various cars this year, and hopefully that will transition into a better result @ nationals next month. This will be the swan song for the SS this year and while many are bringing the new "better" version of my car, I will be lagging behind and just enjoying my time there. It's a great social experience as well as a great tool for getting info and advice to get things ready for next year.

So... while many things change in our lives, many stay the same....
Work, race, sleep & eat.
Rinse and repeat.
