I left Saturday around 12:30 and got back home around 3. Light traffic all the way.
I found out that Rt 78 in NJ was closed later in the afternoon though.
I had a fantastic time at the Tavern and talking with you all in the Fun Field. Thanks for the friendships made and renewed.
I bought a couple of items and filled up my truck. EBO made me do it. It was the right choice.

Wow, lost of issues for our cars this year on the way to or from. I also ran into issues Saturday afternoon on the trip home. I lost 2 cylinders due to header burns on the wires. Must have been someone at Carlisle reaching in and placing the wires against the headers! So Saturday night off to the auto parts store where I bought new wires and shorty plugs for both cars. Yes Both cars since Thursday night the wires on the 72 burnt on its test drive. (how did that guy that was moving wires in carlisle get to my 72 on thursday!) Anyway all is replaced and I now have some clearance witht the shorty plugs. Good to see everyone there. 
And how about a special congrats to Mark and Shirley for their winning car! Congrats! Very nice automobile!

No, Rick, A lot of us are planning on Corvettes for Chip this year (it's always my end of show season show!). I only mentioned OC, MD because it was brought up. I know it's off topic, BUT did you get your top issues straightened out? Hope your work issues get taken care of sooner rather then later!
