Did a little run up to the Hills the other day and visited the Amicalola Falls Inn to see the sights and decide we want to book a room for sometime in the future.

We will be there Saturday. I’m actually on the way to the mountains now in the Camaro one LE to finish off the brake in miles so I can change the fluids and the differential fluid tonight.

We’re also going to do a drive Sunday to North Carolina area if anybody’s interested.

Went to a really cool event yesterday one of our local Indy's put on. Similar to the "Luft" events from what I was told.

My neighbor (Matt...member here) displayed his Porsche Cup 992 car. The "MYSTERY MACHINE" from Scooby!! Star of the show.

Went for a drive afterwards!! What a great day!!

Yesterday's 400+ Mile Day (in the twin SS 1LE's). Tail of the Dragon, Cherohala Skyway, and many other roads!!


Video always looks so slow..lol. However, Mike was taking it easy to learn the car / tires and I was driving with my left hand only, holding my phone with my right hand and Not shifting at all... stayed in 3rd the whole time. Tiring on my shoulder...lol
