LOL...when I met you at Nopi, one of the first things I asked you was when you last washed your car. You said: "Not since Expo3."

At least you are having fun with your car.

 

Nice recap. How do you know when suspension bushings are bad?

 

Nice seeing you again Will.
Must be nice to get 34 mpg on the highway!

And just because I still had this link saved ...

You wouldn't happen to be an accountant would you??

 

thats gotta be a record of some sort

for using the car for what it was intended for, as well as daily life duties.

 

i will **** my pants the day you get cruise working.

The 'paper' on the wall says Civil Engineer... but who knows.

I 'would' post up the 4 page word.DOC (9,440 charaters) that has all of the work/track events/etc. that the car has done... but fear laughter.

 

Great accounting of what all the years

I wish I had kept that great of track.

 

Lots of respect for the record you keep and the way the car is treated. Although I don't drive my own anything like that, sometimes I always get the feeling that the car wishes that I did. Here's to three more years.

 

ALWAYS good to see people that actually DRIVE their R's.

**** collecting an R. Drive that bitch.

 

Good stuff, hope the next 3 are as eventful

Nice bookkeeping too

 

Have to stop back by Will, and I can hook that PY up and it will look like new.

 

happy b-day #01-0154!

checked out the link to last year, with the pics of when she was new...she was a little cleaner then...

 

This car is taken to the MAX at every event. You guys really dont see how much he enjoys this car til you hang around with him, those of you who have know what im talking about
