everyone making it home OK?

Home at 10:15PM Monday 5/29. MonZora is sleeping outside tonight, because I'm cleaning the garage tomorrow! Quasi still has about an hour and a half to go.

That's a cool Grandma Stampie truck there on your trailer.

Quasi is the mofo for bringing you down.  Glad I got to see you both again.

Back home in Austin!

Another 80 miles. Took a dinner break

Just met up with Robbie and Ian for a GRM Relay. They should be getting close to Robbie's place about now.

Again, those aren't pillows

Made it home in the nalibu with only 1 minor hiccup. 

The bolts holding driverside rear caliper  backed out. 

Heard something fall off in Frankfort KY . You know that ting ting sound. Drove through and was getting on i65 in Indiana saw brake lights ahead pressed on pedal went to floor. Slowed the car by down shifting. Drove 1/2 mile on shoulder got off exit . Put a piece of wood in caliper secured with duct tape, blead brakes and made it home last hour on 3 calipers. 

Smashing the brake line didn't work. Crushed about 10 in of it. Still passed fluid. , a new tool added to my list chunk of wood.

Nice work. I've done the vise grips on brake hose trick several times to get home with various old rusty trucks. 

Didn't pack vicegrips

Pleased to report the 9k made the 200 mile drive home without incident or issue. Trip only took 2'20"; you do the math, but suffice it to say the car really likes 90mph.
