I may be the last one home from Rally 10.

Got home late yesterday ..final day of driving was wet and wild. Had the rear tires hydroplane on I-90 in heavy downpour near Ritzville in hot and dry eastern Washington. A first for me in the GT. Happened at 75 mph in truck rut with about and inch of standing water on the freeway. A bit scary until I figured out what was going on. Slowed down and all was fine. Had the wipers on high speed for 50 miles or so.

And then about 20 miles from home a really huge Florida-like down pour hit. Had the front end walk on the top of the water. At 40 mph!

Rally 10 was an epic event. Had such a great time with all of you that were able to attend. Looking forward to Rally 11 for another friends reunion with cars! 2016 will be so good with the NFGT at Daytona in January, Le Mans in June and of course the GT Rally in ?????

I'll add some photo's later. Here'2 2 from the end of my Road Trip #35.

You must be stopping for trailer tires too often!

Got home today a litle before noon, Jeff - but only with a scant 86,123.6 on the odometer. Total mileage (Home-Rally-Home): 7,311.4

(got a note from AtomicGT - he has 6,000 total)

PS - it's nice to be home!!
