    Took a little road trip today

    I live in Pittsburgh, but I wanted to get away from all the traffic and let the car unwind some. It rarely gets to do it around here.

    Went 51 S to Uniontown, 119 S, to 166, to 21, (right by Rodeheavers), back to U-town and 51 N back home.
    I wanted to stop into Rodeheavers and check out the new dyno, but they weren't open.

    I love parts of 119 south of U-town. Twisties and hills up and down. The car got a real workout and handled it like a champ. I recently switched from a drag wheel setup, (fat & skinnies), to 17x9 with fat rubber all around, and it let me really whip the car into turns etc.

    Did a couple 100 + mph blasts on parts of 51. Luckily, no troopers were around.

    A guy in a Chevy pickup wanted to play at a red light going out of U-town. I gave it half throttle in second and he disappeared LOL. Other than that, there were no potential victims. Probably too early in the day. I left around 10am and got home about 1:30.
