Brake controller you say? Yup. We are expecting delivery of a 16' fiberglass Scamp the end of next month! It'll be about 1,700lbs dry weight and barely 2,000lbs loaded. Perfect size for the truck to haul.

are you getting that sweet Nissan Stanza wagon too? hehe
 
Too bad Mark.

Mary's car needed a new rear wheel bearing. Got that changed at work, hanger bearing is going but not too bad yet. Need to get 4 tires, looking for used ones since her car doesn't do much mileage now.

I thought it was a dodge colt wagon...

...but you're right it is a Stanza because of the minivan style sliding doors. In any case, if that can pull it I'm sure my truck can. What did those have, like 75hp?
 
Guys my GF is in Milford, NH. I'll be taking 190N and 13N to her, then 101 into Manchester. From there 93 North is basically the ONLY way to get to the Kanc Cruise spot.

I'm going straight to the mountain that morning. I plan on arriving around noon. That means I SHOULD be in Manchester around 9:00 or a little sooner. I'll be passing the Kanc Cruise meet up spot around 10:00 - 10:30 and finally arriving at the mountain base around noon.

This being said, you all should have received an email last night with the itinerary. So please plan accordingly :)
 
I am going to bring you an envelope with a bunch of letter "R"s in it... You keep on losing them....
if only i was a pirate!

just did my first ever auto-x in my protege at devens afb.

went from a conservative 71.5 on my first run to a 65.8 on my last run. still lots of time to find, but had a passenger on every run, and was using all season tires, so overall im pretty happy.

it was the most fun ive had all year and will definitely be doing it again
 
Sorry to hear Mark, you do seem to be having wheel and tire issues this spring.

Autox at Devens is a blast, Miss that group.

Was supposed to autox on Sat but they were forecasting heavy rain at times so I passed. Weather turned out to be fine, grrr.
 
Mornin, back to work drivin mom's caddy/boat today... She was kind enough to give up mahjong today for me!
