Drag Week
We drove with the firebird all week after meeting them at a campground Saturday before Drag Week started... we were behind him when it happened but won't get into details about it as it's not my story to tell.
I will say that the fog that morning was nuts! After the incident I was out on the highway flagging people to slow down for long time before the Sheriff showed up... (you Americans need mandatory day time running lights like we have in Canada, at least 20 cars came out fog with about 100 feet of visibility with no no lights on) ...anyway the Sheriff gets out off the car and tells me she had just captured a kangaroo in town on her last call....so here I am standing by a corn field in Wisconsin on a foggy morning with a crashed firebird, a sheriff who just captured a kangaroo and an hour ago I just had breakfast with the Australians who shipped over their Vailiant to race...at this point I'm not sure I woke up on the right planet this morning.
We got the Firebird flat decked to the race track and beat it back into shape... later that day the passenger from the firebird and me changed the electric fuel pump on the car... and at some point around the same time we changed intake gaskets on my car at a hotel... and the tail goes on and on from there...
