Formula D in 3weeks

Post by **andysapp** » Tue Apr 05, 2005 2:57 pm

YES! My sleeplessness gets worse every night!

GOOD NEWS... it looks like we have the BATTLEwagon taken care of for the weekend. Darkducati has figured out a way to secure an SUV for us to take up. The downside is... I'm not sure if we're going to be able to fit 8 wheels/tyres and five people in it... so we'll have to figure something out.

I think I'll put my passenger seat back in (w/ no seatbelts, mind you) for the trip up and then remove it once we get there. That way two will be in my car, leaving four left. MAYBE we can fit everything... people included into the SUV - it just depends on what we get.

If anyone has any ideas... feel free to post them up.

I could try and get a fullsize cargo van. That would hold your apartment! But, I would only do it if there is Project driftMechaniks vinyl involved!

oh! damn! that just reminded me. My dad can get rent large limousine vans for cheap (see pic below)!

maybe not just like that...but something similar.

that would be just as good. and probably more reliable and likely than me getting the Denali or a van from my dad.

Yes, I will be bringing my laptop. I may have to get some work done while we're up there. A cargo van would be awesome!!! What's up with our cargo plane???

GUESS WHAT?!?!?

We WILL have the WARwagon for the trip!!! My brother isn't taking it with him to NYC just yet. He's moving up there without it until he gets settled... then I'm going to drive it up there with all his stuff!

SO... the support vehicle issue is solved! I'm still not sure if we can fit 8-10 wheels and four people in it... I'm going to have to bust out the measuring tape this weekend and figure it out. I'm stoked that we'll have it for the trip. Drift events just aren't the same without WAR involved!

Aiight... sleepTime. Traffic court starts early. Woot, effing woot.

Andy, is it for that ticket you got up north in that parking lot? Tell me how that goes.

Bwaahahaha... no running toll booths this time, lol. This was a 76 in a 55. It was funny - I handed the solicitor my guilty plea & he asked me if I've plead nolo before. I said no... and he said "I strongly advise you to take that plea". I said "Nooo, I'd rather just plea guilty". He and the judge looked at me cross-eyed... then the judge said "You're saving that for another time aren't you..." I couldn't help but crack a grin and say "YES SIR!". They burst out laughing along with the rest of the court.

Bwaahahaha... 76 in a 55 isn't worth my once-every-five-years plea.
$75 fine... I think two points - maybe three.

Bwaahahahaaaa... I almost forgot - when I pulled out all these people from inside the courtroom saw me in the car and pointed at me. I guess it made sense seeing me in a fully caged BMW why I wanted to save that plea for another day.
