Blow out!!

I got steered into, by my driver, a big old rock, when my driver had to swerve to miss someone on a motorcycle. Easy for him....me, I got this horrible flat tire and smacked my wheel pretty well to boot. Now its like i am a race car at Darlington with my stripe on the right side! I got a new tire, but its not nearly as good as my Michelins. I guess, though, its better than just having three tires!!

Through the Big Apple and on my first ferry...

i didnt really get to see anything, except for the Statue of Liberty, way off int the distance. But this was as close to New York City as I'd ever been. I'll tell you that after the long run in Pennsylvania, a change of pace was welcome...but this was way too slooowwww! I was glad to get going again all the way down Long Island...and at the end...I took my first ever Ferry ride....

That was close!!

I managed to get 524 miles out of one tank of gas! But you can see by my warning light, it was a close call but i think my owner, who I suspect has run out of gas in other cars (at least three others, including the Hamilton College Jitney -ed.), so he was anxious to get some gas!

Back from 'Bama

I got back from Alabama late last night--so late that I didn't even notice that I'd gone over 82,000 miles! I'm getting a lot of excercise these days! Just last November, I only had 65,000!

IRP!

I was at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway today for Formula One, and then, tonight, we went to Indianapolis Raceway Park for some circle-track racing. My owner must know someone because i got to park right up close to the stands. We got out of there before the race ended, though, so we didn't have to wait for traffic!

Can't you see...it's Tennessee...

And...don't forget, Alabama! We went down south, as far South as I've ever been for the race in Birmingham. It was crazy hot, but my a/c worked just fine, thank you! And, it was another new track for me...

In good company

We stopped at my owners parents place, and i was not the only saab in town! We didnt get to go to the dealership for a car wash, but it was still a fun visit!

Watkins Glen...

So after my trip West, it was a tour to the East. We stopped at Thors place on the way out for the 6 Hour race, which had some lousy weather. I though, had a CB for the first time in a long time, and we got some great milage.
