Hand washed the car today. A few water spots but better than it was. I’ll get it a proper wash soon but it was due for at least a rinse.
…hazelnut crow saint and espresso time.
once you are moved in in the lot by my parents then you won't need to worry about that
meanwhile I bought $100 of candy at Costco. don't know how many pieces--bags don't say. that's a shitload of candy, though. and it'll be all gone in about 1.5 hours, I predict
And... 17/20. Qualified 9th. I was in 4th after the first lap and the steering left failed sending me off. I pulled off to swap karts, but they didn't have one when I pulled in to swap. I ended up going back onto the track in last and even dealing with the bad steering, caught back up from 1/2 lap back, and passed a couple of positions when I was forced off while passing somebody.
At that point, a bunch of the lead traffic passed, so I had no idea where I was in the field anymore. I caught and passed 7 more people, but apparently they were largely the lead pack. I ended up with consistent times, but they were 2-3sec/lap slower than usual. Oh well. It was fun. 44 laps/60min is a laps of seat time and was a ton of fun.
They have a 2-person kart too. Greg took Wifey out which was awesome. Scared the hell out of her, but she gets it a bit more now and understands just how good he is and why we work with him.

Yep. I've got out a few times, but it was largely to practice before the race.
I used to put a plastic beer cup over the valve on my scuba tank and drape a sheet over it. When they rang the door bell I would crack open the door, crank the tank valve open and with a loud roar of air the sheet would launch over their heads and scare the shit out of them
they similarly have a long-ass driveway with a gate at the bottom. plus it's all the way up the mostly unpaved road from the road along the bay. ain't nobody coming up there
