Back!
I'm sure things will get better.
Made my eggie run. I actually headed north of town as I had not run the car for a while. I figured it is always a good idea to activate the methanol system every once in a while but it is sort of hard to do. WOT the car spends so little time in 1st or 2nd gear that I need to usually do a 4th gear run at high rpm before it turns on and sprays it seems.
We've having some road construction in town and as I approached what I thought was the end one of the people came into the middle of the road and flagged me to stop. It turns out, he was concerned that the car would not handle the drop where the new pavement met the old. Wow. How bloody considerate is that I ask you. So he helped me back up with all the construction stuff there and I went and an angle and it went fine.
What I didn't realize was that not only are they doing some paving in town but also the next 15 or so km north of town. So a long drive in 3rd at 50 km/hr. But after that I was able to use some methanol and enjoyed the drive, went to Hines Creek and then back to Fairview. Turns out that my next turn east would have been along a 8 km stretch that they are lifting so it is covered in rock ships. Hummmm. Not this one either it seems. So I had to had a fre extra km but it was all good.
I have to admit that while it has been a while since I've driven the car it did sort of scare me a bit. I haven't done a lot of WOT driving for more than a second or two and I'd forgotten how hard the pulls, I mean you snap your fingers and if I was in Ontario I'd be in car crushing territory if I was ever stopped!
But feeling better and I almost need to do that as a daily activity like my exercise. It involves some time but you just feel so good afterward.
I know that I need to just settle down. I can't make time go faster and I need to stop my mind from playing tricks on me with what could happen on the 20th. Can't change it anyway whatever it is they tell me. I just need to stay calm and then take it day by day.
Why couldn't they prescribe a certain amount of daily Z06 time as treatment now I wonder?
But as a sign of some confidence, I'm finally updating my Magellan GPS for my sedan so I must be thinking deep down that I will be using it for a while yet.
Thanks for the support!!
Cheers,
Garry
