I do that too.

In the mid-80s I had a Z28 Camaro with a custom targa top (basically a T-top without the T). If the sun was shining the top was off, regardless of the temp outside. I lived in N. Virginia at the time so there were plenty of days the heat was running and I was bundled up with the top off.

And then at 2:23 there's the pass in the grass against the guardrail. Just like Dale Sr, he doesn't let up off the gas.

How about Estre's pass with two wheels off at over 150mph.

Especially sucks when that signal feeds the tail rotor servo on your rc helicopter.

It's been real easy avoiding the Girl Scout cookies. They just aren't as good as I remember. Very average.

So I have elected to stay on at my old job, as a part time employee. I don't feel good about walking away from the open orders. Once those are done, I am completely gone. It's a little extra money for a couple months too so that will be nice.

I’m prepared for it. I’ll likely dump a lot of hours into those weekends but I’ll be down to a handful of orders.
