Sometimes it's like a one night stay at a motel/hotel. Just can't get the right position to sleep in, even if it is a "sleep comfort" bed.

What's the point in owning a fast car in NoVA.... unless you are on the road between 8PM - 4AM you don't get to open it up...

Wait a minute.  You don't have traffic 24/7???  Maybe I should move there, LOL.

I see ... I see ... No Frogger btwn 8 PM and 4 AM.  Must be nice.  We do have a couple of roads nearby where traffic moves in the "HIGH teens" ;) but cops are always trying to spoil the fun LOL, as well they should.

Apparently kite flying in your 30's can be considered an extreme sport... not suppose to drive either.... I told the Dr to go pound sand on that one... Ha!

I know there is always mention of checking the rear turbo hose/pipe becoming loose highlighted in red but sometime's we neglect to check the hose/pipe clamp highlighted in blue to make sure its nice and tight. Z

                            Feel free to use the pic.  Z

The good part is your a young Buck and should recover in no time with a couple of Tweaks to the base cal.
On a serious note know the exact feeling when i fractured my fibula right in the middle of summer and ended up wearing a Splint for 3 months and indeed was painful and hopefully yours is not fractured/broken and hoping for a speedy recovery my friend. Z

I'd be more worried about whether the engine bay is empty, we still don't know how this pic was taken ...
