So does this mean we'll actually see this car you keep "talking about" at MB next month?

If the temp here will cool down below 95 where I can get some drive time probably so. I'm wanting to get in a couple long drives to test the otr waters.

95??? That's too bad, we've been suffering the global warmingest oppressive heat of mid 70's. Drive out here, it's nice.

Wing windows - open

Accelerator pedal - to the carpet

Heat problem - solved

There is nothing "cool" about 95* wind blowing in your face. Screw that. Send some my way Mark.

Then you're doing something wrong.

Try this instead. Roll up all of the windows and sit in the car in the mid-afternoon sun for approx. 20-30 minutes.

Now open the vent windows and get her up to 60 MPH.

I'll bet that 95* temp air blowing in your face would be welcome then.....

Naaa, when you're the leader, you are constantly slowing down and waiting for the passing zones. When you are the one being passed, you're pretty much WOT all the time!

Course, being a track fraidycat, you wouldn't know that :pick
