SHP conducts campaigns like that a couple of times a year. Try and not push it past 10mph over the posted limit and you should be fine.

My wife got one on Big Woods road going 10 over, 65 in a 55, just last week. Cop was in a red Dodge unmarked, sitting and waiting on a side road. Told her it would be dangerous to hit a deer in that small car at that speed. She was driving the Boxster. We need more doughnut shops for them to patrol.

Just heard the weather - like to be rainy on Saturday. While I'll definitely be at the WZ for coffee, it might be a good day for me to try out the Zainos I just bought - maybe pull the rims off and give them a good shining.

I can't attend an M-Powered event on Friday - I'll be in Florence for a meeting. Bummer.

Default Zaino

Hey Bob,

I've been using Zaino since my 996 was new. Let me know if you have any questions, or want some help. I have a Porter-Cable random orbital polisher if you would like to borrow it.

Friday is out for me as well regarding MPower visit. Rain Saturday, good time for hot coffee and conversation followed by a drive. Hey, we do HPDE's in the rain, why not a drive!! Practice wet weather car control.
Is it Saturday yet???

I won't be there Friday either; hopefully just dropping off in morning [if work doesn't get in the way] and picking it up that night

Jeff - Thanks for the offer of the Porter Cable. I won't be able to attend the PCA dinner tomorrow. But, if you're around Saturday, I'd love some pointers re Zainos use.
