TopNotch, is that a bee on your hood?  I'll take a wild guess that its name is Buzz.

You got the name right, but it's a Georgia Tech yellow jacket.

My wife's Escape shows a little picture of a radiator if the coolant is low. I guess car makers figure people can't read. But what about those that don't know what a radiator is?

I don't think your half shafts will be harmed at all. Remember that the half shafts used on the rear of a Fiero were designed for front wheel drive cars, where they go through a lot more angular changes.

How do you know the wheel lifts off the ground? Unless you have a limited slip differential, the lifted wheel should spin like crazy, with an increase of engine RPM's.

Let's start a new topic for RFTH 22 pictures. I didn't take very many, but Fierofool was runing around everywhere, shooting with his Canon.
Anyhow, here's my pictures.
First, cars gathering at the hotel in Clayton...


The linup before the run...


My daughter drove her Hyundai Veloster Turbo...

Texas is so big that they didn't even get any rain from Harvey. They did get higher gas prices, however.

This year's run as a mixed bag. Overall, I'd say it was a success. But it had an ominous start as my brother Mike's car had trouble right at the start. But it was only a loose hose clamp, and a mechanic from the Michigan club quickly fixed it.
And something happened on this run that has never happened on our runs before. There was an accident. I don't know how much the person involved wants to share, so I will not say more for now.
When I get home, I and most likely others will share pictures.

The old forum wasn't software run on our site, it was a service provided by another site. Very little control over the "inner workings".

In our September meeting, we need to talk about contingency plans for RFTH if needed because of the storm, and the club's cars.
