    Good morning folks. Heat advisory again today. I'm hating every minute of this. Got lots of places to see, and terabites of photo and video to take.
    Y'all be safe out there, and good luck to @Tacoma Mike on the racing.

    I was getting worried about you guys...
    Glad you're both feeling better! Does your employer not get the families first leave? That's an extra 80 hours of sick leave on uncle sam's dime

    i like the citrus-y ones - lime, pineapple, tangerine. and the blackberry ones too

    lies

    all employers were eligible for it - and they extended it through to the end of next month. you do have to prove that you or a family member in your household was sick/quarantined due to contact/or waiting for test results but thats easy enough just needed a note from the doc/clinic you were at. once submitted the govt will reimburse the employer for the wages they paid to you.
    i used up 5 days last year - 4 because we all quarantined for a week after one of the office guys got sick and 1 last december when the urgent care people couldn't figure out why i kept getting sicker right before xmas.

    See that was the thing.
    He was never sick. He was in close contact with someone outside the household. The tests were neg but he still had to stay out for 14 days total..Twice. Never understood why… He got the shaft

    as long as he got tested he should have been eligible. i know i got a note from the clinic both times stating that i was awaiting results and was not to go to the office, etc. thats all they needed to submit for me to be able to use up some of that time

    That is a nice looking car, classic LaMans style. Do you have to run to the cars when the green flag drops? Lol.

    All my racing was “go fast, turn left” stuff. The cars didn’t look that nice by the end of the season but we had a good time. Our classes were governed by modifications allowed and there was a short block engine challenge to keep the horsepower pretty level. Good luck at Lime Rock.

    well, one year we did a lemans start only to get into the cars and pace at like 35mph. It was a nostalgic thing.
    You have to understand. Most of these guys are old.. like real old. Their giddy up has gone and went.
    Plus with all the safety stuff the drivers have to put on. 5 point harness, HANS device, full face helmet, try to get their glasses in there, gloves… No way can they do it fast.
