Your wife will get used to it. The person who is going to be in trouble is YOU if your daughter has oil for blood! She will be burnin the rubber soon in YOUR cars!

I have tried to convence my wife that hopping in the car after a bad day at work is better than going to the bar and works for me better than a shrink!! Spinning wrenches is also considered good for the soul!

I have a picture hiding out of my son hopping in behind the wheel of my car before I took out on my last big road trip before I got the trailer. I was so excited that I forgot to throw the boombox in the car. 750 miles from KC to Detroit is a long way with no tunes, but I was able to hear that motor hum and tires growl!! The speedometer was not needed after a couple of hours!!!

This last fall, my son and I took a little ride in the car and we were testing the coeffiecent of friction between rubber and asphalt. It is tough to remember when I have seen a bigger smile on his face... and mine!

as long as there is no salt on the ground, every sunday I take at least a 40 min ride. I'm going into the garage tonight to put the Winter jets in. I need to do the valves also..but don't have the time tonight.
