Not trying to reinvent the wheel. I'm only trying to find much needed HP to try to stay in the same area code with Jim, Randy, and the rest of the fast cars in A/SA. I think I need a 85 pound driver.

It is overcast and nice here at the track this morning. It is supposed to get up to 79 later today. It was sprinkling a bit early, but it is just humid now. Tomorrow could be a different story, though. 60% chance of rain. We will just have to wait and see. After tomorrow, it looks to be a very nice weekend! I will try to get some pics later.

Driving thru the Great Smokey Mountains on the way here, we saw a lot of these trees with the purple blooms. Does anybody know what kind of tree this is?



How about the artwork on this truck??



Great dinner last night with Bob and Kathy Bagley, Josh Eastburn, Larry and on left side Halsey Hatfield, Michael Volkman, Alice and Joe Tysinger and me on the end. This was at Giannis in downtown Concord. Great Italian food!

I'm not 85lbs but I can get down to about 120 if you need a light driver Larry! Add some padding in the seat & some blocks on the peddle so I can reach. I would be lost in there lol

Ms Patsy those are Wysteria trees, there are several different variations.

I found a monkey that weighs 18.4 lbs with long arms and one leg while wondering around the woods in Florida. Now being trained to hold the wheel with left leg, push throttle with right arm, and turn on shift switch with right leg. Other leg is missing. Us large girth folks need such a monkey. He is also certified to check the wheel for roundness. Will be ready for Indy.
