Yet another installment... another short ride this time, but a decent sized load.

'package' = ~980 lbs
trailer = ~150 lbs
Alma = ~36 lbs these days.

R has ~ 170K on it, little bit of compression, 4.78 FD, can't recall how many miles are on the clutch, probably ~ 100k on the pressure plate, and somewhere around 60 on the disc. Little softer setup in the rear these days, 350# on somewhat healthy ITR factory shocks, generic sleeves. Engine leaks pretty much everything, burns the rest. Can't recall the last time i actually did an oil change.

Alma riding in style:


The 'package'






As usual, the R tows ~1000+ lbs like a champ. Stopping requires some attention, but that's it. ~310 mile trip, didn't even have to stop for gas.

Thanks to Bbasso for the hospitality, always good to see you bud.

So did any civic's try to race you on your 310 mile trip? lawl, they probably figured that'd be their only chance to beat an <FONT COLOR="red">R</FONT>!
