Default My car is home again...AND DRIVEABLE!!!

For the first time in 8 months, I have driven my car! After all the work done, it feels like a whole new car. I have still noticed some problems....but it may just be my inexperience with sports cars...so I don't really know. Hopefully I can come to the Charlotte g2g next weekend so everyone can see it.....SO FRIGGIN HAPPY!!!

I'm glad to see that she's back on the road! I know the feeling, albeit in such a limited sense compared to you. You see, today I got the 1989 Turbo back on track. It only needed a 2" hose, but it took 2 1/2 weeks for it to get here.... So, after a 3 week hiatus, the 2-hour drive tonight was just awesome! Here's to many happy miles for your Turbo and mine.

Tim, glad you got it back, man. 8 months is a long time away... I think I would end up with serious, serious psychological scar if I were in your shoes. Glad you came out in one piece
