What Did You Get Today? (Not Model Related)
Hotrod 97 replied to LOBBS's topic in The Off-Topic Lounge
Got these cool kits today. The Da Vinci clock is a wooden kit, I found it at Hobby Lobby. The music box is a wooden kit, and the Strandbeest is a plastic kit. I found both of them on Amazon. I think I might go with a Steampunk theme for all of them... -
Nice lookin CJ. All you need is a truck, and you’ll be ready for race day 🙂

That is beautiful. Does it sound as nice as it looks?

The famous jet truck known as “Shockwave”, after about 3 1/2 decades of entertainment, made its last run this past Saturday. The fiery crash happened on Saturday, July 2 during the Field of Flight Air Show at Battle Creek Field, Michigan. Neither the truck, nor the driver, survived. Here’s a link to an article with some more information: https://jalopnik.com/driver-dies-in-jet-truck-crash-at-michigan-airshow-1849144522 Condolences and prayers to Chris’ family, and all who were affected by the event.

Nice little Nissan. Looks good in that color.

That beauty definitely belongs in a museum - it looks just like the real thing! Congrats on the museum showcase!

Are you on Facebook? They have a group made for the airport. The first time we went down there was the event after JJ's race, and we didn't know it. I remember watching that episode of Street Outlaws and thinking "hey, that's the airport at Berkeley Springs!" lol

Yep, that's the one! Potomac Airpark, IIRC.

Actually yesterday, but I took my F150 down to the drag races. There's a no-prep track down in WV that Dad and I go to often. Well, yesterday was the first time that I actually ran instead of just watched. Didn't run any classes, just test passes. Anyways, the real pleasing thing is that I almost outran a Chrysler 300 (SRT8, maybe? Not exactly sure, I just know it had some horsepower). The Chrysler only got me by half a car, which is a milestone for my ol' truck (both of us made clean passes). Last year the truck couldn't keep up to SUVs, now she holds her own against performance cars. I guess I should add that we did some work to it over the winter, so it's a bit different from what it was last year.

I have the honor of being the Photographer for my Uncle’s wedding! I’ve been dabbling in photography for a while, and this will be my first official work. Needless to say, I’m pretty excited about it!

Behold, my prizes for the day... A bottle of Blue Rocket traction compound for all the no-prep races that we'll run in this year. And I found a neat-lookin book at Ollie's. Since I'm a guitarist who likes to listen to the classics, it just had to come home with me 🙂
