Well that is really the same alternative I had just in a more organized and planned manner.

Yea, loved them.

Made me think what a great cross-universe movie that would be. The Enterprise goes through some type of blackhole and ends up in a Galaxy Far Far Away. The try to maintain the prime directive but a Jedi detects them in the Force and hilarity follows.

Almost got taken out by an old Toyota pick up today.

I was sitting at a light waiting for it to turn, when I hear the screech of brakes.

I look to my left and there is a early 90's Toyota Hilux type truck headed straight for my driver side door. Guy's trying to make a right turn in a turn lane and has lost all grip (it's lightly raining), he's not stopping.

Fortunately for me (and probably him) there is a traffic island and a post with a pedestrian signal on it. He hits it, knocks it over and veers off because of the impact and his rear tires catching on the curb his front tires jumped.

I start to get out to help the guy, but there was a cop who witnessed it and he wave me off. Last I saw the guy was getting out of the truck, so hopefully he's OK.

Had he not hit that post and caught the curb I suspect I would have been injured he was traveling fast. Fortunately I was in the Suburban today which would have provided a little protection since the Hilux wasn't lifted but standard height.

That'll get your blood pumping!

The AMC category really interested me since over the decades I have had a Pacer, Gremlin, Spirit (what Gremlins changed badge to), Hornet (both a sedan and a wagon), Concord 4wd and a Talon.

I want to do one one day, but now all my car friends are like 4 hours away.

I have been trying to put a group together for a while. Everyone is either too busy, or I am too busy and I don't have the space right now.

Both to far away for me to join.
Never heard of it over here.
Looks like we had something similar but since the last update was the 2016 schedule I would guess it is gone.
