Do any of you upload your photos to Google or Apple? Can you share them? I started a photo thread for the event here:

Share your West Coast Cruise pics HERE

I started you off with a 10min video overview and 300 photos and videos from the event. I'd love to see more from your perspective. Until then, I'm still working through about half of my 400GB treasure chest.

Be sure to send everything to @MusbJim as well (WeTransfer.com to his email address: musbjim at gmail dot com).

Saw this pic of Larry Bull's car on another thread today and I recalled following him through some twisty at SLO.  His new (body off) suspension treatment is a very noticeable improvement in handling.  He was carving corners on rails while I was  backing off the accelerator and hesitating over the brake peddle.  I wouldn't want to follow him if got the serious need to speed.

Just a friendly reminder to the owner of the charred Lotus, as much as you think you’re Lotus is better than our cars, you still couldn’t afford to buy a “fake sh%tty Porsche” with your insurance check. Hate to break it to you bud, but unless your Lotus was in immaculate condition with under 10 miles, it’s worth less than our plastic clown cars. 

To add, there were also a number of cars on the tour that could out-perform his Lotus both in terms of 0-60 and cornering capabilities; regardless of what model (I couldn’t tell exactly what year and model).

Spoke to Paul Kramer At auto kennel  turns out the Lotus guy was actually making fun of everybody’s car along with ours …He even told me the owner of the lotus has owned a couple of replica porches in the past… So he can’t be that bad of a guy...

I also did tell paul it wasn’t a wise thing to say during the video taping of his car burning… He agreed

mr lotus is a true car guy and loves to tinker with all sorts of them..... 

best regards,

Tebs

Hey I'll go there immediately...today's advice is to spray your Bundt cake pan with non-stick spray before you pour your batter. Poke it with a toothpick to check 'doneness'.

in other news, pack a fire extinguisher! Not only that, test the darn thing so you don't have a useless red thing behind your seat for years getting stale until one day you need it. Might save the day.

I’m glad you brought that up. After getting my carbs dialed in by my local VW guy, I was driving the Coupe home and my Extinguisher just emptied itself. I was blinded and pulled into the median. My wife said I looked like a snowman when I jumped outta that thing. Valuable lesson: 1) Secure your extinguisher at all times 2) Think about getting the Element unit (Which I gladly followed through with). Three hours of cleaning and I still can see the residue here and there. The top of the dash is actually Dark blue. In the second pic I had already cleaned the driver’s seat. A Duh moment for sure 🤦‍♂️64F44479-63B7-479D-9A84-0B60A734CC3C1AB0159C-E8B6-4B83-83A0-9FC81038637E
