Hey, Its Friday
How do you like this one? Oh yea, GMC Motorhome owners are almost all hotrodders, or classic car folks. We love to do the Tim Allen, toolman, thing. "Soup it up". Look at the smoke coming from those front tires. I love smoking tires from a 455 frontwheel drive GMC coach. No other tires have the same smell while "smoking". A friend of mine had a GMC dragrace rally this past weekend. Several coaches were there and made the run. I am thinking Pinks needs to do a show on us one of these days. Pinks is a dragracing show on Speed Channel. And, for those of you that don't realize it, the GMC Motorhome holds the land speed record for the fastest motohome on earth. These rigs will scoot if you shove the pedal down.
That is just a pretty sight. I love it, can you tell? Now you know why I have fuel injection, headers, and a 3 inch stainless pipe all the way out to the rear bumper. Not to mention the 355 gears and that special grind camshaft. Oh, what about my variable MSD timing contol? Oh yea! If I pull out in front of someone, I can move out of their way in a hurry. I am notorious for slowing down when I see a coach coming up behind me right before a mountain climb. I really enjoy it when it is a big diesel pusher. Let them pass on the flat. Then, just as we start up the mountain, here I come. I am coming around, move over. I love it. I guess you know now why we had that fire climbing up the mountain pass in California. I was passing a bunch of pushers trying to catch a class C with a Ford V-10. We made it, and we were smokin, but wrong kind of smoke that time. Always bring your fire extinguishers and have them real handy. Saved us.Anyway, it is Friday. Why do I care? I don't. but, I know that many of you do and I am happy that you have made it another week closer to where I am. It is great not having to get out on weekends. I like Tuesdays. No one on the road but us old whitehaired folks. We have the roads all to ourselves on Tuesdays.
So, have a great weekend and come on back as you have time. Teri worked cleaning the inside of the GMC today. I will get it vacuumed this weekend and wash the outside and off we will go. Lots of pictures coming, soon.
