Car Photo of the Day: Rally Start

Our friend John “Mad Dog” Morrow is sliding around some snow-covered road in France as we speak, participating in the Monte Carlo Historique. We all wish him luck and safe passage all the way home.

He promises me though, that he & his daughter, in their E-type FHC will join me & my dad at this year’s Monte Shelton NW Classic Rally later in the summer. Above is a shot of a big Healey waiting for its start at last year’s Monte Shelton.

There are four classic cars shown in this photo. Can you name them all?

Site Update tonight

Update Friday, January 30, 2009: The planned upgrade did not happen last night. I came down with a nasty sinus headache, and just drove home and went to bed. The work has been postponed until the weekend

breakin' out the toolkit...

Just an FYI I’ll likely do a software upgrade on the site tonight. I successfully ran the WP upgrade on a test blog last night and it went well. That site though is much smaller than this one, so I expect things to take longer here, and the possibility of downtime is higher. If the site vanishes for an hour or two, you’ll know why.

(and yes, I make backups. if everything goes tango-uniform I can back out of the upgrade.)
