Wow, what a busy 3 weeks. Came back from Watkins Glen with the dashboard of the Infiniti lit up like a Christmas tree with errors. SLIP, VDC OFF, Service Engine soon. I think the on-board computer wents nuts trying to figure out why the car was turning at 80 MPH uphill at the Toe-of-the-Boot while the rear tires are screaming in protest.

A nice easy 260 mile drive on the highway magically cleared all the lights.

With winter on the way here in NY, time to bite the...

Back from a 6 hour drive and I'm still in one piece. There was one other Cayman S at the event but several 997 Turbos in the beginner group and a few 2007 Z06's.

Weather is...

OK, I'm spending way too much time here.

My Cayman S is on the boat. I have two track days at Watkins Glen next Monday and Tuesday.

I'll be driving my 2007 Infiniti G35s 6-speed. The Cayman S is arriving just a bit too late for this. Probably just as well. I'm not about to redline a new engine for 20 minutes per run on a track.

The Infiniti has 7700 miles on it since I picked it up in Feb. Not bad since I only drive it once a week. Don't really...

What is this bloog stuff? All this newfangled tech stuff, I don't get it.

I remember the days before email and the Internet when you actually had to come up with creative ways to kill time at work.
