MoT was a huge success this year. I’ve got a batch of photos up on Flickr, and here’s a little video I shot while coming down the mountain. (click to play). This is the first time I’ve used the suction cup mount on the outside of the car with the video camera. It held very… Read more »

More Memorial Day NHIS Videos
A couple more quick videos from the Memorial Day PDX event I did with SCCA (NER) at NHIS. It was a great event; very low attendance (just 25 folks had pre-registered), fantastic weather, plenty of instructors, and the BMWCCA curriculum. There were several times where I wondered if I’d somehow missed the checkered flag, since… Read more »

The other night I saw a SINNER being chased by a SINGER and a DANCER. And on the way to work today I saw LSNCPL8. SCRAT and MATER… Read more »
Meet the newest members of the family
Out with the old, and in with the new. Except that the old wasn’t that old, and one of the new isn’t that new. Goodbye Sputnik, Hello Scrat On Friday, I traded in my ‘05 MCS (Sputnik) and brought home an ‘06 MCS (Scrat). I’d been toying with the idea of upgrading as I neared… Read more »
