Very cool My Man!

BB ribs are the best. We got a lot of New Yorkers and Chicagolites here that do them well in some of the resturants..but 16.99 for a teaser rack just ain't happning!

We will do this, when is a question of time. I kinda hope the Florida boys look at this site as a reference of how it is to be done.

I did have a great time and like I say, the drive, oh...the drive down a non policed Interstate with high end high speed crusers (not the 95MPH dodge truck camp which all SUV's and trucks were running around the 88 to 102)..I found that me and a 330 was even, His passes were not that potent (compared to cararras and the E55's that were taging around) and then I got ahead of him (somehow) and took and exit and he cruised in behind me for a Burger king run, and we chatted some..I took a parking place (he knew he was on line since he had soot coming from his pipe and I pulled up beside him at over 100..in forth (so much for my 7 mph rule but the oppurtunity could not be missed and Betsy was feeling quite good.. my car) And he asked me, what did your speedo say, I said, I had no idea, off the scale, he said, 132 was his gov. but he just got it taken care of and he said he was around 140 with nothing left..and I had nothing left either.

So matching a 330 is good info At those speeds...but he weighs 800LBS more than me...with a 3.0(6cyl)running around 235+HP and no telling what else.

I simply could not drive 75. I tryed. It would have been dangerous. And when the speed limit turned to 55, I was still cruising 86 with the flow..I tried to pace the flow down to 70..no such luck...

Driving In S Florida is a trip..a good one..and the car is fully blown out for a while...many d shifts to 3 at 80 and 4 at 105....to keep it ripe.

About cleaning, yea, this morning I overslept from a hard work week. I found this cleaner called super purple, good for Alum.(stock alloys) and it took care of the rims, then just palmolive in a bucket and a towel for the body and under body sides. My car looked really good considering the rust holes in the hatch (only) and I did not vac it out but I was sporting my Halon 1211 20LBS extinguisher (leaky injectors) just in case. I think a few folks took notice of that big thing, considering a refill is over 700 bucks.

They had a tripod and got some good pics of my car, rustholes and all of the hatch.

Sleepy eyes hold up at top speed, I leaned and scooted up to see if they were being abused by the wind, rock solid (I was afraid they would get buffeted to death)

Sorry for the ramble...but the best of the show was the drive.
