Very cool, beautiful car too! How was the handling, it looks good in the corners.

Thank you!
The handling was great, it performed as I had hoped. The rear sway bar was the icing on the cake, it gave the car the balance I was looking for. All the winter’s work paid off nicely. I agree that the car looks good in the corners, it affirms my thoughts regarding the balance.
I was pushing the car very hard the entire run.

Hey Eddy-
Glad you guys could make it!!! Looks like you had a blast!!!
Back in the day late 80 - 90s when I traveled around the southeast- I'd always work that into my schedule. Hadn't been there in a while-However- the wife drove through a couple months ago and thought it was great- so now we'll have to make a trip.
for the video!!!

Richard, It was a great day for sure, looks like we timed the trip just right, great weather and low traffic volume. Cindy had zero interest in going with me because she knew how I would drive it, she knows me too well. I”ll take her up there someday and behave, everyone recommends Cherahola, sounds like a good trip.
