Looked like you were going a tad more than 45. The car sounds really good!

Hey, I was within 5mph of the post speed limit when I downshifted and accelerated in front of the local police station.

Told my friend who was holding my phone that I was not worried as it is his shop where the car is known to be stored

That's funny right there!

Oh, Watkins Glen is my fav, also. It is so steeped in history, plus the track with all it's turns and elevation changes are almost impossible to beat. I haven't driven on it for a couple years, but Bill, maybe we should have a CHR Watkins Glen Reunion Party and we can meet in person. My "track car" had 200 less horsepower last time I was there ...although I'm not so sure my driving abilities have kept pace with my horsepower growth Btw, since New Jersey Motorsports Park opened I feel like I have a great track 3 hours closer to home. NJMP is also a very nice venue.

When I have been to WG in the previous 20 years I always enjoy cruising on the back roads around the lake/s and stopping at the random pubs to have a beer and meet the locals...I have some nice experiences from doing that...I forgot her name, though. But she was soft and warm and very compatible to my points of view of life.

I'm waiting for Liberty Bell Motorsports park to break ground

Also, you just never know where I might be, as I was in Haverford on Tuesday
