After missing last year (required Alaskan anniversary cruise), I am looking forward to being there this year - with Lynn! This will be her first SITM - she used to help Jeannie with Sharks at the Lake, before David and Jeannie moved off and left us.

Great - come by and pick me up!

I'll have my cell phone on for your real-time reports, Andrew.

Is there a pool started yet as to who this year's Wing Nut recipient will be?

You'll hear from us... No pool yet. Hopefully no one will win, but if I had to put money one it... I'd say Heinrich, only because he's driving Roger's 5-speed, a car he's not too familiar with.

Actually, I believe he's driving the GTS...

Ed is right as there is no way I would let a guest of mine drive a 5 speed.

Well, SITM was going to be my reward for getting twinscrewed, but that hasn't happened yet, so I'm going to wait another year.

Get some good photos for me, would y'all?

Why deprive yourself of a good time just because you've not put a blower on? The last time I noticed, my car drives just fine and fast without one.

No doubt, and I fully expect a ride in a blown shark while up there. But, mine's a sweet ride none the less. I just didn't understand the thing about the reward and why that would make a difference on whether to go or not?

I agree. SITM is must-go on my list, regardless.

Yeah, I didn't give a very good explanation. It's been a really busy year (we moved into a new place a year ago and have been extremely busy getting things fixed up). "Reward" wasn't a good way of expressing things. It's really more of juggling various commitments, and a new project would have put me in more of a "exciting car mods" mode for awhile. I've only been to one SITM (it was a blast!), but it's a pretty big commitment of time, and I had already decided that next time I do it, the trip is going to be under boost.
