QOD (Question of the Day) for 1/11/2023: Where

Blue Ridge Parkway is  beautiful. We have family up in Boone, NC. I'd love to take the vette up there to visit one day, and if I were to find myself on the Parkway... well, stuff happens, as they say.

The autocross in the late 70s at Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri that had a quarter mile straight set up on it. This was an unexpected pleasure since most of the autocross courses back in Kansas City were set up for smaller sports cars which made them a lot tighter.

Discovered there that concrete wears out tires a lot faster than asphalt.  😟

I drove mine to...... ready for it?...... down my road.... and back!!!! After it sitting for over a year becasue it wouldnt start, it was an amazing ride. No bumper, no lights, no license plate, just the t tops off, wind in my receding hair, and a smile from ear to ear on my face. 

👍

Best drive was to the front end alignment shop 15 miles away. I had just got it running again after 2 years of restoration work, engine, wiring, vacuum lines suspension etc, and it was scary. 

Getting it up to 50mph for the first time was white knuckles. Tires made some noise along the way..... a tape measure rough in was not very good. And shims from original setup. 

On the way back she was fine, still nervous about something falling off or the like. 😁
