Good catch Adrienne

What has gotten into our Martini Maker?

First a Plus Plus Plus sized lover, and now something called a "Nude Bar" with Trash Can Boys?

Uh, I don't know about that Mike. Have you seen any of TR6's videos?

HWFM team,

This process is much harder and yet, strangely faster than I thought. Remember I am v e r y s l o w.

A few pictures? Here are just a few...

http://gallery.mac.com/markweisser#100023

A small variety, some from the SEMA show. There are more -- I am holding back, kinda like I drive -- or is that drove???

If Deep UV (aka Steve) is the Steve I am thinking of, we have met a couple of times already. His is the only black Targa I have seen out there. Could there be two?

I will accept some of these assignments in what is, I hope, the spirits (so to speak) they were given.

Yeah -- I do need to be a paying member. These things don't run for free. I have a SN that is running for free (to the members) right now but it ain't free for me.

Grid girls? I wonder if I could get the LSRPCA to get some? We could call them "Umbrella Girls" in the spirit, if not the speed, of F!. I can check on that.

Nude Trash Can boys??? Maybe I need to rethink this. That brings up some fairly unpleasant mental images, perhaps best left for another discussion?

Clearly I have much to catch up on, besides the other cars, that is.

I do appreciate all the loving and concern shown thus far, however. And find that I have much to do here.

One last thing -- documentation of ineptitude? Hmm. Is there anyone here who runs in the Yellow LSR group who DIDN'T pass me??? Like I said, even that dead turtle did -- at least before he perished in Turn 2 after a late turn in. He lifted.

Never lift.

I don't know about the rest of you guys, but the 'undercarriage' photo gets my vote. I doubt it'll do much for Mike though what with his preference towards nude trashcan boys...

Note to admins: The above should not be constituted as gay bashing. Should it have been actual gay bashing, VR would have posted some really funny photo with witty comments which would keep us all rolling on the floor with laughter.

Thank you. Unofficially, I am in charge of "loving and concern" here, a position I naturally gravitated toward given my approach to my fellow man and my naturally helpful and supportive manner.

HWFM ladies and gentlemen... and the rest of you, too:

with respect to:

"Yes, like whay does he need such BIG brakes on that car????????????"


Hint: They don't freakin' work!!! It's going back to the dealer for the fourth time. No -- sorry, it's been in four times. This is the fifth time coming up.

It's not only annoying, but garners comments from my last instructor who said, "Am I really feeling you pumping the brakes THREE times now? That's dangerous. Let's take it in."


I could probably do what those Miatas do and just take them off. Save some unsprung weight, stay slow enough you don't need them anyway, right?
