The interesting thing is that, the lights are designed to flcker not flash, the naked eye will catch the flicker while the camera catches them as flashing...

That fella talked at length with me about old SOHC/4's too. Seemed like a good one to hang with. Far too drunk that evening to remember names though.

Good luck Red Bud, I'm sure you'll be fine. You will however, get molested by the TSA whenever you fly. Carmen says she loves you and wishes you well.

I have started to put videos up in my SmugMug gallery. I was going to edit them, but decided to just put them up untouched for right now due to having a slow ass computer. Hell, it literally took over a day (24 hours) just to convert them to a format I can edit.Gotta get a faster 'puter.

Anyway, I will toss one of them up here. This is the Roanoke Mountain Loop off the BRP. You will find it about 12 miles south of Roanoke, and it is worth a little detour. Four miles of mostly one way twisty.

Hi Sean - thanks for the post, that was a fun run, but I think I liked burned up 58 just as much... until we lost our companions, that is... Anyway, great meeting you,
