Have you got a "hoods down" shot?

The show was about 25 miles from the house and I drove the Hemi. It's a bit of a handful to drive. It's got manual brakes and the pedal has been very soft every since I got the car in 2010. We've gone through the brakes and bled them multiple times, but still soft. They always work, but it makes me a little nervous having someone else strap into a +500hp convertible with spongy brakes and 45 year old suspension technology.
MPD drove the Illegal Alien car. He's in love with it and claims it as his own. I told him this weekend that I am going to start sending him the insurance and tax bills...
The Black Car was driven by an 18 year old young man named Tristin and I think he's been marked for life. He's in a Vo-Tech program at school and works at the diesel fuel pump rebuild shop where Dave used to work. I needed a third driver and he got the nomination. He seemed like a great kid and was grinning from ear to ear. I got several pictures of him behind the wheel and I can just imagine the stories he is telling his friends today. It makes me feel good.
I didn't get any hood down pictures because I am an idiot. I didn't even think about it until I got home and saw how cool the pictures looked. Next time...
