Rudy,
Do I see an 11.60 dial-in on the window.
NICE CAR.. How much do the parents have invested in that 😯 😯
OH, By the way. My father never got the chicken farm 😆
Guess who would have to get up early to feed the chickens?
Yes your right….My MOTHER,,,Not my FATHER.
No Chickens for her, It’s Golf in the Sandhills, N.C. (Pinehurst C.C., Knollwood, and Midland)
OH, She has a HEMI too. 2007 Chrysler “300C”.
And by the way… JUNE was a much better shifter than you 😀 😀
And she had prettier hair too…. AUBURN 😛
Hope all is well,,,Paulie
Paulie,June here! You’re still a pisser.Hair’s a little lighter than Auburn these days.LOL About your mom and her Hemi.So apropo considering that our lives growing up consisted of fast cars.The need for speed never leaves.Now the cars come with the speed and lots of comfort features 🙂 too.
Are you coming to Island on the 7th?
Paul…”Sandhills”..Mom wheelin the Hemi in my backyard! ..I’ll watch out for “the Little ole Lady from Moore County”…give her plenty of room with the “Trick Truck” June …Mustang looks Great..That’s the one For Sale?…. “15” ? looks kinda …well Sporty-Car (SCCA)…remember at Dover, If Lime Rock rained out and we were running…all these funny lookin things would show up and fail tech,cause the roll bars were made out of exhaust pipe..the ones that got though , could only fit in like altered or D/D
No Dino,the 68’s not for sale.My son posted for me the info on the mustang for sale.It’s the 9 sec 89 Fox body under the For Sale thread.This son can’t hold onto money.If he has the green stuff it burns a hole in his pocket,hence those 15 meatballs on the 68,the names on the car,and the windshield banner.Makes it easy to find us though,in a sea of cars.No SCCA,left that one up to the oldest son,who did the Lime Rock,Poconos tracks,plus autocross,until his car met it’s end on a wall at the Poconos going backwards.Can you say ‘Driver error?’ 😳
The kid came out of it banged up,the car didn’t make it. Geesh,no wonder my hair is gray. 😉
