    No worries. Cash in hand is always better than tripping over the rotors in the garage.

    leaving school early, grabbing some Taco Bell, and going home to take a nap.   Cherish these times In my school days there was 1 somewhat legitimate gun threat from a redheaded kid with the last name Dumas that was reaching his breaking point, 1 phony one called in from someone wanting to get a short school day, and a couple bomb threats including one where a guy had his Sony Walkman in his locker. The play button was stuck on and the cassette didnt auto-stop after reaching the end so it had a repetitive ticking sound which some faculty member walking down the hallway assumed was a bomb (since Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote taught us that analog clocks are best for bomb-making ).  Sure, its a "better safe than sorry" moment, but in retrospect the thought of a middle school kid concocting an explosive device with an analog clock connected to 3 red sticks of TNT via some coily wiring is a bit unlikely.

    I brought the camera, but never got bored enough to break it out. After a couple attempts to find a comfortable place, it finally lodged itself between the passenger armrest and seat bolster and stayed there for the rest of the meet.

    Who else turned up for this? I got caught up with my student and the instructor run group and didn't take a walk around the paddock.

    There's a 0% chance the e30 is ready by then, so I'll be looking to go later in the season!

    Finally did the drive out highway 60 to Prairie Du Chien. Unfortunetly it was early morning, in a snow storm and in my semi truck. Once spring comes, if ever,  I’ll return in a bimmer!
