COOL!! The more the merrier! Plus I dont know where it is, but I know homade can find it. In the meantime, we may or may not have lost our "Mountain guide" that we did have in the past. I dont know for sure yet. LONG STORY............. He has other things on his mind lately. Anyway, we may have to get another leader. We'll see?

The first run I made on the Dragon last year was led by the editor of True Blue Magazine, sort of hard to play much when you're following several early Broncos in the twisties But when I made a run at it a few days later on my own The video was part of that second run.

I finally was ablee to get my 56 out today to snap a few pis for this thread, I needed a ladder at my house so instead of taking it off the sid of the truck and carrying it up I figgured I just drive the truck up and get a couple pics at thesame time.



After I discovered I needed a couple things for the house i took the old girl out for a spin to the local building supply, sure was a nice day for a drive.



I nevr get tired of looking at this dash almost a work of art

Alan Jackson - Little Man - YouTube A different take on what's seen through the windshield. But when you see it, you'll know why I posted it.

I'm glad this thread came back around. I had forgot to take pics the last time.
Here's a couple of shots as I was leaving the dragstrip a couple of weeks ago.

Since I promised to post this a while back, even without the "Vroom Vroom", here's a video of one of my first legal drives... through the windshield. Ran into a problem, but think I got it fixed today.
