That's great news Jason.

Happy to see that it passed the test!

Nice seeing you again and hope to see you again next year.
This time without any "surprises"!

Jason,

Things like this suck in the moment, then become the best stories and memories. To me it looked like a TV episode of ER-928. The doctors (Sean, Pete, Stan, Hans and others) were dashing in and out of the car...headlamps on...tools being passed...pacing...crowd of onlookers. The car starts...then dies...then it starts and is idling until (someone) sits on the passenger door sill...then all was quiet again...Meanwhile lots of adult beverages being consumed over by Fraggle's Beer Box (Vanagon).... Then Stan arrives asking for wire cutters...WHAAAAAA!!...then word swiftly moves through the parking lot "THEY'RE CUTTING WIRES!!!" More gasps..(really)...around the Beer Box.

And now you're home and you and your car are folklore How are your cooling fans?

Jason, great, glad you got back without any issues, you did have a big smile at breakfast, compared to how you looked the night before at dinner

Very glad to read this Jason.

I bet you were a little uneasy on the drive wondering.

It was great finally meeting you and the others ^

That has to be the best description of how it all went. The hushed whispers around the entire parking lot when people found out Stan had wire cutters was freaking greatness.

Jason, glad you made it safe and sound. Get those three relays, LH/EZK/Fuel pump changed out, a new Crank Position Sensor and you should be good to go for a long time.
