We drove all around Santa Fe, NM, attending the Concorso. Outstanding venue. I think I might enter the 2000 and a '78 Ducati Darmha next year if I get them fixed up in time

Drove to Vantage on the Columbia River today. 10-1-15. 300 miles

A perfect day in my Datsun World.
Beautiful Sunny mid 80s Fall day.
Bought some Roadster parts in the AM.
Did a 7 hr drive in my 67 2000 #585.
Took Fall color pictures so Linda would not be sad.
Gas at $2.09!!
Grilled a steak when I got home.

What more could I ask for! ( Too old for those "other" items guys like to ask for).

Ted.

Well the police should be thanking Ted for the tip to issue a ticket for improper parking ... :smt002

We of course will appreciate Ted's pictures while he is behind bars ... :lol:

Nice oil pressure and temp while doing 100 on that great looking road :shock: ...

Ted, are you running stock rear end gears? Wow, 4000 RPM going 100. I would be 6K at 100 with 3.90's.

Hi Skyman,
Just between you and I, the speedo is 10% optimistic.!
So with the stock 3.7 rear end gears and in 5th gear 4000 RPM is about right for 90 mph.

Drove to Supercar Sunday for Nissan day.
Here's what Jay Leno brought, a Bentley:

I asked him about Archoil, he said they use it and feel it is fine to use.
