    Shit, yesterday I thought I was motivated to get home, muffukka in a Hyundai suv was even more motivated. Flew past me like I was standing still.

    Nothing scarier on the highway than a "motivated" @Texoma!

    I managed to let work expand to fill the day yesterday. Season it today between rainfalls I hope.

    :pccoffee: Good Morning ATX! Didn't see any of you on TV at COTA yesterday - try and step it up a bit, OK?

    It's move the smoker out back, check out the WiFi, 321 ribs, and Cup at COTA day!

    I'd be interested in the bed stiffeners and front bed rail if they're still available!

    It's not raining on me! But I'm smoking out there! WiFi works great, despite the bad reviews the app gets. Judging by the complaints they had, they just plain stupid.

    AutoNation South Austin has done warranty work on both our current Toyotas and our last one. Haven’t had to take a vehicle in to them for a while but they did a great job on my rear diff recall and my wife’s Prius issues.

    After giving up on San Marcos Toyota after decades, AutoNation in South Austin did a TSB on the RAV4, and took care of other overlooked (FREE) items that SM didn't bother with. Haven't need them again, but I'll go there before I try another.

    SE of Austin about 30 minutes. But it was too tender, it all fell apart and the dog ate it.

    :pccoffee: Good Morning ATX! Another 2/10" today brings me to 8.25" for the month! Come July we'll be begging though. Guess I'm going to try putzing on the truck and in the garage until it dries out.

    I did drop off some beverages with the track doc and his driver mid afternoon on Saturday. Suneet Singh is the doc, and a friend of mine, and I forgot the driver was a friend of someone else's here. They were sitting in a Tundy in the Support Paddock, next to an open gate that led directly to the live track. I resisted the urge to ask them if I could go through that gate, as a shortcut back to the med center. I suspect it would have been, in more ways than one!

    I did give the Chadster and his neighbor a ride, I think he was at the track for about 37 minutes...
