Ah, come on you light-weights. Here is an actual photo taken during our trip to EBI#3! We didn't mess around with no stickin' speed laws...

Wow,
What are the odds of passing the same van on both trips !
 Grin
P.S. I guess we now know what caused that noise.

I had a good time, but I was a little tense driving a motor with only 40 miles on it! I'm sure Casey had a blast too!
Hey, come on Scott! I set off on the 620 mile round trip to European Bug-In with SEVEN miles on the clock! Mind you, I did listen to every little noise and start saying a few Hail Marys... Wink

I was worried about having seven or eight Panzer members standing around my broken car!
 I guess I would have had to flog the engine builder if that had happened.

Steve, I understand you haven't had much of a chance to drive your '67 really fast (like I should talk...), but at 7800 rpm in high gear, your speedo actually goes all the way around and comes back on the far side. Yes, it might look like we're only going 65mph, but in reality, we're going much, much faster.  Grin
