The car had to be 120+ degrees when I was on the track... we limited the stints to 30 mins to prevent heat exhaustion. The high was 108 on Saturday, 105 on Sunday. Thankfully there were outdoor showers close by to cool off in between stints.

No I didn't but my sisters did.

Saw that car pushed by the activity center there around 07-09 don't remember exactly when but I did see your car there... 120 degrees? Reminds me of my job with humidity at a slaughter house but not with a suit on now I don't even know how I put up with that heart there.

What a great blast from the past, such a vibrant community then. I feel no remorse in Necro'ing it.

Here's a contemporaneous image taken my friend Terry (@Talon ESI-T) on the way back from MOD in Normal long before Rivian moved in. Same as that in my profile but you can actually see the scruff I was back before I became a Old Fat guy. It's hard to find a picture of you when you're usually the guy behind the camera.

This is from late last year. I won an award at a Mopar show.

This is one awesome thread! I'm no picture guy.

True true. I have only few pics of me, especially with my own cars or motorcycles.
I don't remember well but I think it was around 2010. It's a small pic, the guy with 1g is me.

This is me at the far end of the table, with my Millennials and my Gen Alphas and my Gen Beta. Kids are suited up for dyeing Easter Eggs, Easter 2026. My son there on the left, it's all his fault that I have this 1990 Talon now! It was his car when he was 17. I also kept his 1994 Jeep which is turning into a real nice rig lately. Thanks son!

My daughter and I earlier this year. at Old Spaghetti Factory in STL. Hope to see some faces at Shootout! Even If I didnt feel like going, this little girl wouldnt let us miss.

At the track with some DSM Family, my son Carter and I (green shirt). Also in pic, Luke Nagrant, Kelsey Mascorro, Trevor Peterson, Troy Gundrum, Matt and Annika Morrison, Jeremy and Amy Simonson.

You guys should appreciate this. You will almost never find a photo of my mug online despite an almost 30 year online presence. . Me, myself and my kids.

I am "almost" always behind the camera unless I am DRIVING my DSM.
Here I am on the left, Kyle Loftis in the middle and my youngest son on the right. 1320 was in town for our 1/2 mile Airport Event sponsored by Kansas Corn and Shift Sector the last 2 years.
RIP Kyle What a super nice guy.

An old one and a more recent one.

Me with my first DSM in 2000, and mountain biking in Moab a few years ago.

Like with @diambo4life there are few photos of me online proving I actually exist. Even the one I shared in this thread doesn't really qualify... so here are a few with me and the fam:

That sure do, don't they. Looks like you survived the most difficult part now that you have two adults.

Almost. One is in college, the other is suffering through the end of her sophomore year in high school. She's in a world of hurt right now because she made close friends with a small group of seniors last summer on a 34-day outdoor camping/hiking trip through the southwest region with the school. Now all her close friends are graduating and she is devastated and soon to be alone next year, with no friends in her grade.

If only there was a way to get it through to her that it's somewhat trivial and so short term. But alas, we know nothing.

A lot has changed since my first post in here from 2010 and unfortunately I'm a lot grayer now, but I've added a few kids to the family which has been humbling. To all you parents out there...

Here's a recent shot of me at a Cubs spring game in March with my 2 year old.

Photo dump

Heres me happy as a clam with my new charge pipe my boss welded up for me

And another fav with my son on the car a few years back, and my personal fav with him in the car even further back

Man time flies..

Me in my brothers 68 Cutlass, Richmond VA 2020.

And of course my better half with me in Mexico, 2010 on our honeymoon.

And last but not least my biggest headache , my daughter and I at Red Rocks, she’s about to turn 15 and start driving , if I don’t make it on here past 2026 that’s why

How I react when I see a thread like this knowing every BIT we drop is being scrapped by the massive surveillance architecture being constructed around us..
