I had every intention to go, but I've had a series of problems today - really a comedy of errors - that will prevent me. I'm hoping I can get to SAAC next week.

The play is sometimes referred to when inexplicably a series of stupid acts occur.

I like hearing others stupid events, makes me feel more even slated.

OK - to start - aaaaagggghhhh - I wasn't in a good mood yesterday. I was recovering from our annual sales kickoff. Lots of bonding and networking this week with people I don't like. wahoo. Thought I'd get up early to knock a few things out quick. The day starts when I wake up yesterday to a f-n s**t storm that one of my dog's had in another bedroom. About an hour later - I put on the track wheels with DRs on and installed the rollbar. Then clean the car. Then s**, shower and shave. Time is a-wastin.

I wasn't sure about driving the DRs all the way to ATCO - about 190 miles. I heard people drive these to the track, lower the PSI for a few runs, then pump them back up for the ride home. I hadn't driven on DRs before, They're very loose even at 35 psi. There's like no sidewall. I didn't like the feel and thought I was wasting tread. If people drive them to the track - it ain't 190 miles away. Anyway - after 20 miles down the road, I head home to put the stock wheels and F1s on for the ride up. I could throw the DRs in the back since the rear seat is out.

So I get the car jacked up and reach for the wheel lock key that I keep in my console box. It's not there. S***!!!! Some idiot - who shall remain nameless - left it on one of the wheels he just installed. DOH! So then there's a retracing of steps and driving a Shelby 20 miles an hour that turns heads for an entirely different reason. Suffice to say - the key is gone, I can't swap my tires and I don't want to drive the DRs all the way to ATCO. And by now it's almost noon anyway.

I just hope I can get a key by next Friday so I can go to SAAC 33.

Okay, now that sucks.

Sorry to hear you had such a bad day.

When I was at the track someones wheel lock got screwed up and I hammered an oversized socket on it and we got it off.

This reminds me to get rid of the factory cheap locks (eventhough made by Gorilla locks I believe) and buy some hardened Gorilla locks...w/ 2 keys.

Hope your day today goes much better.

That's why I don't have any wheel locks on my car . A thief can remove them very easy anyway and I dont' want the extra work of having to deal with the special "key".
