Just noticed a flex fuel badge on the window and sure enough, yellow gas cap. Didn't realize E85 was a thing for behemoth trucks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anybody going to Cruise week next week in ocean city? It's 9-12th supposed to be about as good as H2Oi but it's actually sanctioned.

Not going anywhere near OC in the offseason - plus I don't want to do any highway driving with virgin paint if I can help it for a while.

I daily drive one. It's fit into almost anything I can throw it at...it's just LONG. (that's what she said)

Park better :-p

I thought the corvette/muscle car show was the week after H2O but it has been a long time since I've been down there.

Mikes work, for me:




I made the bases and plaques of course, and assembled them.

No but I was considering the g cruise on the 12th. I can still be home in time to watch the late games. Not sure if anybody else was going. I enjoy driving back roads and it seems mazoc doesn't do alot of driving events.

Is that something that could be changed?

Default OC Rallies

Reference some recent posts on this subject, go to <mdcoastdispatch dot com> and search for "hectic car rally weekend" The article is about H2Oi last weekend.

Here's an excerpt.

"Last Thursday the OCPD posted on Facebook reminding citizens the department has a zero tolerance policy regarding traffic violations and the police will be addressing vehicle equipment and modification violations made that would fail the vehicle during Maryland inspection, and the vehicle would be impounded."

The rest of the article is worth a read. I've been thinking about going down Oct 9-12 for Endless Summer Cruisin' 2014, but now I'm not so sure.

We used to do a lot of driving events like 2-3 years ago, but the people who used to lead them have been busy lately. If someone wants to volunteer to lead one, we can definitely get some going.

Since no one spoke of meeting last Saturday in Fairfax, I decided to drive the back roads of middle Calvert County on a Saturday morning. Channyville Rd. near Patuxent River, Huntingtown Rd., Sixes Rd., Greys Rd. and a few others. It was fun but a few more cars and a stop for brunch would have made it even better.
