Re: Where did you DRIVE this weekend? (Roadsters only!)
Drove the car onto a boat last weekend.
Drove off the boat and into the town of Friday Harbor. Was only able to spend 2 days on San Juan island. But it was a great 2 days!

Took a short "test drive" to see how the new injectors were working. Noticed the shadow cast on my dash from my vent window sticker. Pat

You could have said "I drove my Roadster out of state today" to make it seem more glamorous. Congrats on the progress! Pat

Re: Where did you DRIVE this weekend? (Roadsters only!)
That's an excellent point. I made it all the way into another state, past an airport, through construction, and to several impromptu car shows in 2 different parking lots (interested coworkers). Then back home again, in "traffic".dynaguy wrote:Shawn,shawnj82 wrote:OK, it wasn't this weekend, and it wasn't sexy or glamorous, but I drove to work today!! 10 whole miles.

Round trip: 24 miles. Excited waving count: 6. Yelling "nice car" count: 3 (including one kid that had to be about 8 years old). Gawkers: countless. It was a good day.

Looks amazing. The idea of driving around an island in the roadster sounds very appealing.

Re: Where did you DRIVE this weekend? (Roadsters only!)
Morning drive to the big city of Pomeroy, WA. Visited the Pataha Flour Mills for a tour and wonderful lunch. Wife disappointed the quilt shop I promised to stop by was closed. Warm drive home in the high 90's. Pat
