Mark, hehe...I think I'm safe now. I've had too many close encounters with cops this past year with the P-car but I think I've got a handle on that. So when are we going to do a photoshoot of your toys?

AlgaeHater yes that was me and my son leaving the Spanaway Carting track. I like all F-cars thanks it's nice to see an Italian in the midst of all those German things those guys drive. Just funny coincidence I pulled out when you guys were driving by. We were heading to the hobby shop for some new slot cars.
Jason I am sure your still in hiding from the North Cascade "TURN AND BURN" LOL, I remember. I think your off the radar now and should start driving with these characters again. They miss the pictures and watching you fade off into the distance of their Rear view mirrors.
Maybe someday I'll drive again but I am thinking of Sub Sandwiches in Portland/Raymond/Ocean Shores/ I don't know.

THAT WAS YOU? I gassed up there & saw your car, I like the rims! Boy, does that just suck!
Really fun roads! FWIW, the PCA is NOT SLOW! We were really, really pushing it.
Sorry I missed up, ended up doing almost 2000mi in a week, today was a late start & we hooked up with friends in Portland, so I just got home.

Man Seattle was pathetic in that game. We left the game early in the 4th quarter...seats were great too. Seems like the Seahawks have been going downhill the last few years and Alexander keeps on looking like he is way past his prime...the dude can't run the ball worth a damn.

I pulled it off and confirmed. I checked all the other wheels and they're ok, so it's really no big deal. In fact the front right wheel really isn't bent that bad... but I don't like the idea of driving on a repaired rim, so I'm just going to replace it. Plus that will give me the old rim to hang in garage. Think it would make a good clock? 
Good to hear you're back on the road again too. I have the same size rear (275/30 19s) and they took two weeks to come in when I ordered them. You're lucky you found something local.

Hey! great idea about the rim! In our experience, we've found that they make great garden hose holders! Very stylish, yet very functional! Hahhaah! Let me tell ya, we've had some pretty high end garden hoses in our day! LOL! I'm sorry that it was bent. It kinda makes you sick to see, huh! The same happened to me when not only one brand new tire was blown, but TWO! especially, out in the middle of nowhere! Ya! I was totally lucky to find them! Especially, since I had to drive all the way to Fife, from Redmond to get it! It was the only one they had!
Well, glad to hear you'll be back on the road again too! It was great meeting you guys! I hope to see you soon at some more runs!

Six Speeders...
Thanks for the great morning run, Issabella and I had a great time. David, beautifully planned route, wish I could have carried on with you all after the ***-pounding we all took at the gas station. ($3.58 WTF!)
Hopefully we can fit in a another run or two if the weather permits, Who is up for spur of the moment Sunday runs? We ought to get an email list together so that the turn-out is not dependent on viewing the thread. Which I missed originally, Thanks again David.
Anyway, beautiful machines and a great bunch of people. I look forward to spending more time with you all.
Matt / Mitchell, thanks again for taking the pictures. Got some really nice shots on my camera, P.M. and we can meet up to download to your thumb-drive.
Cheers everyone,
Brian and Bella

Brian,
I'm glad that you guys made it out! What a pleasure to meet both you and Issabella! She's a doll!
I would totally be up for any Saturday or Sunday spur of the moment runs. I wish I would say the same for Todd (my hubby), but he works most weekends. But, if he's available, he'll definately go! My p-car is back up and rollin' since repairing my 2 blown out BRAND NEW tires (ouch!). If you'd like to do a run, please call or email me! I'm always up for some run fun!
