You go too many places, too fast....


You should try slowing down once in a while...


I think I missed a call from you the other day... You up and around?

I went to the EuroSunday event in Sacramento this morning.

So, yes I am. Another couple of busy weeks are ahead.


I have to go back to the SF area to Topline Automobile, day before Thanksgiving, near the SF airport for new brakes and rotors, I got 43k on the old ones and its time for new ones. I want Textar pads, ATE rotors, and Mercedes Benz Anti Squeal paste. Maybe next year I may go for slotted/drilled rotors. They do work better.


Then the next day, I am going back to San Jose to be with this other girl for Thanksgiving with her family.

After that I have to plan another trip to Orange County, because I won a prize at the car Show in Los Alamitos near Disneyland. I have to get it in person. Its in Westminster (near little Saigon) So I will drive to Los Angeles again. I like going there, its always fun

Last year I drove about 2,000 miles the whole year total.

But this year I have put over 13,000 miles on the Mercedes and 8,000 on the Outback I bought in March, just doing stuff. Some of it is car stuff and the rest is for long distance dates.

That is so far in 2008. lol

You pile on the miles man. I think I do around 20k a year.

Sounds like you got quite a bit on your plate. Dont you have power slot rotors on your SEC now? Are they worn out? Perhaps a big brake upgrade on your 126??

Jim, if you got time on Tuesday, let me know. I got a week off (finally ) and got some things to chat about. Well, that and I finally got around to fixing my SLS in the rear so that it sits perfect.

Also - I got the Bullitt soundtrack... I think its good driving music for what/how you drive.
