Stopped in at ZR Auto this morning. The chrome helmet is a replica of the Suzuka 1998 lid Schumacher wore.

The FXX he put into the St Johns harbour a few years ago at the Targa Newfoundland rally.

A tree fell down in the West End a few days ago. Thankfully it didn't fall down on anyone or anything.

The F40 is a bucket list item of mine.

I don’t know too much about this thing to be honest Hiroki. The HP figure is just recollection from chatting with him last spring after he worked on my car. I’ll try to get some better info next week if I can.

LOL I remember that one. There were 5 or 6 of those cars that came here that year as a group. The video doesn't do any justice to the sound of the car; it was very impressive.

I’ve heard this thing running in the shop last year. It sounds like an F1 car.

It's actually not very fast, but it does wicked backflips.

Mikey, You have to be one of the most cussed out guys in the whole city. Messing up the already bad traffic flow all the time. You probally enjoy that though because you don't have to navagate what you mess up.

This summer the verbal abuse has been fairly mild actually. I Haven’t had anything thrown at me,Yet. Mostly just the finger and horn so far. A couple of “A-hole” comments and one guy who swerved towards my helper a few weeks ago. I’ve been lucky in my 20 years though (knock on the dash) I’ve only been clipped by a mirror taking down a 2 way traffic setup. The guy stopped though which was cool. All was good aside from a small bruise on my shoulder. A little incident last August was dealt with quietly outside but all that aside,I’m pretty careful out here.

I have this same job at 9. Going to see if I can video myself setting it up. Sometimes it’s set these up and get the hell out of there before the drivers start raging at each other. It can be pretty funny what I see in the run of a day. There are some really bad drivers on the roads.

You definitely have our "climate envy" and have us beat D
... as close as I can get while “stuck” here in Alberta.

Huge difference is that, in between,
I am the 3rd Generation “Yard Boy” and “Building Maintenance Guy”.
Top "to-do" is removing 6 decades (7 layers) of paint. (a one-man band)
Doing one wall per year before Summer as I am very very noisy when doing it.
Just finished this (14 hour) wall and it's paint ready. Last year's wall is on the right.
Sadly at the expense of missing a Corvette Cruise this year.
One wall left though for Spring 2020.
