Many thanks. I must admit, I was panicing quite a few times thinking, I got 50+ cars all counting on me and we had a Renisance Fair, tractor trailer blocking a single lane road straight up 1200 ft mountain...construction on the mountain...tuff u-turns... road closures...Road with Bridge out...COPS everywhere...An Army Football game...and a parking lot that was already full...

YET, at the end ofthe day, thanks to patience, Calton talking me down and being very easy going and the rest of you knuckleheads following me (hahaha), we had the best time...

Next time, RALPH (Bimmer 722) leads!
You did a good job! I was telling the wife that you must have feeling bad as we slowly crawled past the Renisance fair...don't worry we're not gonna hold it against you! I felt bad enough when I had just a handful of guys behind me coming up from NJ...

What did he get a ticket for? Speeding or the loud car?

And the renaissaisissssaince fair bit was funny. Too bad no one was in character when they were leaving. "BEHOLD! What be these demonic machines with their sounds and metal wheels? Clearly there is some demonry taking place underneath the bonnets!"

He figured he'd let you use the money you saved from the ticket to GET SOME WHEELS. Your car seriously begs for some

Car is begging for some wheels and I'm begging for some $ to buy them

I have to say, I'm not displeased with the 124s...I need 20" wheels though..when winter ends, I'll consider switching then...Now's not the time to change shoes...By the way, Even with 124s, I still led the pack

Touch? Mr. Gregg! On our way back, though (cross county), I thought it was funny how you were doing like 70 and no one wanted to pass you
