I noted on John “Mad Dog” Morrow’s website this morning that he’s in Reims and readying for the start of the Monte Carlo Historique. Bon Chance mes amis!

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
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.)
This is awesome! (from Hemmings)
Makes me wish I was 5 years old again.
Car Photo of the Day: Honeymoon Hot Rod
Well, not really. This was just a vintage rally practical joke, and a good one at that.
This car is one of those famous Euro-American hybrids, with raw yankee power mated to a sleek Italian chassis. This car looks and sounds wonderful. Yeah the name is right on the back, but go ahead and guess. 😉

(can you see the diaper under the car?) 😉
And now a REAL Jaguar
Stumbled upon this image from National Geographic via the tubes today. Stunning photo of the animal that gave its name to a stunning car.

This photo, of three Jaguar E-types in an Alleyway in Missoula, Montana was shot last summer on the Going To The Sun Rally. Front-to-Back: Richard Kuschel’s S1.5 OTS, the 65E, Gary Herzberg’s S1 FHC.
