MomHawk's base Mustang rarely sees the correct side of the speed limit, although she has toned it down a bit in the last couple of years, to where she is at least close to the speed limit.

I haven't been to a single car meet this year, all I do now is wave at other twin owners or flash my lights to any car worthy of appreciating, which in most cases I get a flash-back, and pretty much has sufficed my car meet itch.

Probably what I’m gonna do. Though at the meets are some pretty cool car’s occasionally. Just have to sift through the shitty builds.

Well, had a bad day yesterday. With the health problems I've been having the last year or so, I am so behind in projects and chores around here. I was finally feeling pretty good, so tired to do a couple jobs.

I missed a rung coming down from the ladder. Fuck. Luckily I was near the bottom. Hyper extended my bad knee, and bruised my hip and back.

Take it easy there. You don't have the easiest of vehicles to get in and out of.

Found a nail in my tire today when I was leaving work, but luckily I had the warranty by Discount Tire, so I don't have to worry about that cost

Wet tights.

FRS is actually the easiest.

Is that discount/American tire? They have always fixed tires, no charge.
