The first time I remember Renee, was when Craig brought her out to the races and introduced his girlfriend to us all. Unfortunatly He was trying to teach her how to drive the mustang. After she killed the engine, trying to figure out the clutch, spinning it out many times (everybody did that) you co...

Hi Larry, Nice to hear from you. There were a few of us over the hill guys at Graigs memorial. Rod Bean, Don Hume, The Crites It was alot of fun in the SCCSCC days It`s a shame a few are gone now. Grant Byers, John Clark, Herb Berkman, Tak, Graig,...............As long as your name and mine aren`t o...

Does anyone have, or have a source of vintage slalom or solo events (SCCSCC or Lone Pine) 1985 or older ? (videos)
I would appreciate it.
Also, wasn`t someone putting together slalom or solo archives ?
Just curious

Thanks, Dave....................
Now if memory serves, I have to remove the hubcaps....................right?

Hey Dave

Please give her my best wishes,
Could you tell me what hospital she is in?

I`ve been out of the loop for a long time.. Can someone tell me why Gayle is going in for surgery ? I noticed a walker in the picture (related?) I`ve known the Jardines for over 30yrs....I think I can say that the ONLY time Gayle got TTOD for women was in my car at Lone Pine. She was like a little k...

Thank you for the link to the maps.. Perfect.

I thought of the train as well. My wife and I wanted to tour the region, so I was thinking of the car. We`re going with another couple so we can split the cost.
Did you get a good airfair? The taxes and fees are a killer. (I like the bucket idea.....not)

Has anyone traveled to Le Mans from Paris ?
I`m planning on renting a car
Suggest a hotel ? Good source of a map and the track layout. I understand the the course is aways from the village.
Any other info would be great.

Do you have to be an active auto-x`er ?................
Or can you be a used to be very active auto-x`er

My very best to you Renee, positive thinking is good medicine.
Please keep your spirits up.
Your old friend, John

100% silicone is about the best sealant because it allows for expansion and contraction. As you said Hayward had a poor design, and California Pools bought into it. ( they used to use Sta-rite) The pump was made with a material called Noryl which is an ABS/PVC offshoot. The eventuallity is the thru ...

You didn`t mention what make of pump it was. It makes a difference. Many times the leak is a shaft seal. It`s the seal behind the impellor. There are many different ones ( PS 100, 200 201,1000. etc depending on the pump ). They leak due to running the pump dry for an extended period of time, or the ...

Yup.........................I`m new

Try Diatomatious Earth (D.E.)
Get it at a local swimming pool supply or Home Depot.
40yrs ago I showed this to a friend of mine, He repackaged it as an Oil Dry product, and is now a millionare.
In case your wondering, Diatomites are prehistoric fish fossils.
It should run about $7.00 for a 10lb. bag.

Let me know if I can help with this. My first slalom was in 1968 @ Orange Co. Fairgrounds in Costa Mesa, as a member of SCCSCC (sicksick) Alot of memories of the Crites, Russ Kissinger, Curly Merrill, Herb Berkman, Andy Clark, Earl Wheeler, Don Hume and of course MANY STORIES of an old crocthity guy...

Most of you don`t know me, I have`nt posted before. I was going to post on Graig Angels memorial site but I was able to tell Renee,in person at the memorial, how I felt toward my friend Graig. Now Grant, "MISTER SMOOTH". This guy could drive. A true gentleman. My friend. If you ever wanted...
