European Auto Garage, a recently established race/performance shop in Knoxville hosted a "Cars & Coffee" gathering last Saturday.
It was basically an excuse to park a bunch of hot cars around and shoot the bull with fellow enthusiasts as well as get a
look at EAG's facility. I dropped by for a couple of hours and caught up with a few local folks who I don't
really get to talk to enough.
The turn out was large enough to be entertaining. There were
several things there that you really don't see that often. I took a few pictures, which can be seen HERE
Apparently, EAG would like to make this type of thing a regular occurence, so check back. I will post dates
& times when I know them. It would be worth a look if you are in the area.
I know where it is, I just dont' know what it is. I went ahead and replaced the spool valve gaskets, and
the oil pan gasket. These steps lessened the problem, but I haven't eliminated it yet. Oh well, one thing
at a time.
As discretion oft proves the better part of valor, brevity
oft proves the better part of writing. Due to some mild retardation I have no video from my HPDE outing and
thus, on this occasion, I must hang my hat on mere words and pictures.
I will admit to some trepidation as
I unloaded my car in a driving snow storm on Friday the 12th. Camden, SC where I lodged received, in fact, 5 inches
of accumulation in about 12 hours Friday night. Fortunately, all was not lost.
UPDATE: So, as I posted in the blog section to the left, all went well. I ran somewhat
of a mini-blog on Tennspeed, and I am way too lazy to transcribe the entire thing, so in lieu of actual work, here is a link:
So, we are at it again. We loaded the GT2 onto the trailer yesterday
(Wednesday 11/11) and headed south. We pulled in today and with a favorable weather forecast, it looks like some pretty
slick stuff is going to come out of the woodwork. I snapped a few teaser pics in the garage earlier this evening, but
will post more. The link below will take you to all pictures:
Better
late to the headlines than never. TJ finally managed to get the 240 up and completely running a month or so ago.
Now it is just an issue of a little polish and fine-tuning. In honor of this momentous occasion, 3-Zero productions
presents....a ridiculous video montage
It snowed
here in Knoxville recently, and I was reminded how very incompetent most people are at driving in the white stuff. To
wit, I present to you, "how it's done":
