Well nobody puts Bilbo in a corner.

I spent my weekend getting my electric truck ready for the Colorado Mile. I broke one motor at the last race at 900hp. I hope to make 1300hp in the race this weekend.

Was fortunate enough to buy this from a Phoenix-area dealer that is discounting Hellcats

Spectated the 24 Hours of Lemons in Shelton, WA.

Applied primer to the underside of my 2002 project

I found an empty parking structure and took a few pics

Fabricated the linkage and mount for the hydraulic clutch master going on my ‘65 Comet Cyclone.

Spent the weekend wrenching on my daughter’s 1989 Dakota convertible. Cleaned, painted and replaced all the front brake components, painted behind the grille and bumper. Upgraded the headlights to euro style lights from sealed beams. Felt good getting all this done, but still have a lot to do to get it ready.

Prepped an engine bay for LS install.

BMW Oktoberfest @ Laguna Seca

Bought some new tires for Project POS Camaro. The previous ones were dated to 1998. Also got around to setting the idle speed using an actual tack instead of by ear and adjusting the choke as well as diagnosing a “clunk” coming from the left rear. I’m pretty sure it’s just the exhaust system hitting things. Oh, and…

Dream Ride Experience in CT.

Took the Cayman on the track for the first time

Grand Rapids Metro Cruise. Was too busy watching to take many pictures. Derp.

I drove my “short loop”. Sawyer Highway -> Presidential Grand Tour -> Kancamagus Highway. Nothing like ears popping at speed. Also: moose

Saw this... thing, while walking in Ottawa. Wish I could have taken a better shot of it.

Washed my car.

Killing cones.

There are 7 people in that picture...

I’m going to appreciate the pop up lights a lot more than I’d notice the drag or weight.
