Wow, that's kinda cool Mike. I would never use my nick on a license plate simply because of the obvious -- most folks probably think it is pronounced BonEster. I don't need any date, thanks. Right now we are in Holbrook AZ . . . next stop is Tucumpari, NM. Monday we're hoping to be north of Dallas, TX. Someone did give me a friendly greeting in regards to the racecar, but he/she (can't really tell with all those bike leathers and helmet) was riding a sport bike. I thought it was kinda cool. So no, that wasn't me in Montana. And you all should KNOW I'd NEVER own a Mercedes Benz anyway. Lol.

My son moved from Las Vegas to Chicago last January.

We drove a U-Haul truck. At 8pm he started driving. I took over at 6am in Tucumcari. We stopped in Iowa City at my daughter's that evening.

Bon, you gotta pick up the pace. Or are you stopping for other reasons?

No kidding!

What are you doing, towing the U-haul with the Miata or something? Girls. You should be able to make the whole trek in about 48 hours if you use the U-haul for the towing vehicle instead.

UGH! I hate that. A car is supposed to break on the last run of the last day if it must break!

Just back from Pocono after three days with NO car, which is also a bit less fun than normal.

One more lap than I got in today. Good weekend, but the slow team had some challenges this time out.

Mine broke on the first warmup lap today. Mike's broke the last run on Saturday, but he didn't realize it until just before going out this morning.

I I was having problems with T9 (90deg downhill right-hander), & thought it was because my tires were heat-cycled out (which they most likely were), but then realized this morning as I was checking things out that the left rear was corded. Went for a ride with VR, ate lunch, limped home. At least I got some good instruction from Dave on Saturday before he had his blowout.
