My son is jealous. He has been put on IR for the next 3 weeks due to having an appendectomy.
It's a nice area. Prices in the South are generally lower than out your way. Parts of Asheville are more expensive than average in the South, but as you can see still better than a lot of areas of the country. If you guys make it out this way, beer's on me. Or coffee, or whatever.
Only if you clean it up, first. Do that, and my wife will probably lock you in and keep you.
Good luck!

First - best wishes to your son for a speedy recovery!!
But - believe me - I get it!! From August 2016 - January 2017,
I was dealing with inflammatory arthritis in my knees and having
to have fluid drained from both knees multiple times during that
time period. After one tournament last May there wasn't one I could
attend until last month and I am SO ready for this Saturday!!
For what it's worth - remind your son it's all about the journey
and he'll be back at it soon!

Have seen these in California and saw a couple in Virginia and even one as I was driving through DC, but I have not seen one in my area in a long time
There are two of these in my neighborhood. One is driven by a stodgy old fart who thinks 30 is dangerously fast. The other keeps trying to race me (but circumstances have not allowed). I'm looking forward to it.

The reason I posted it, I forgot to add, I did see one in my area just yesterday on the way home from work..... Corvette vs. Maserati..... sounds interesting.
It probably wouldn't really be. The Grandtourismo has about 450 flywheel HP and a curb weight of about 4100-4200 lbs. My vette has 815 flywheel HP and weighs 3200lbs.
Oh, it'd fun, because it just is. But I don't think it'd be particularly close, in this case.

I see cars on the road burning oil every now and then and it never bothers me. I generally diagnose the issue and move on (my old mechanic days kicking in)...but today, I saw one with bad valve seals and it just drove me crazy, it was a BMX X6 and it was in front of me for miles and every single time the driver applied the gas....blue smoke.... never seen a BMW burning oil before and it just drove me nuts.

was able to work on our sword form tonight!!
Of course, I'm sure the race will be in an appropriate sanctioned location. Lining that up must be the problem.
