We woke up to rain this morning, and it rained for most of the trip. It was about 20 degrees cool, which was very welcome after the heat wave of the last three days. The trip from Springfield to Topeka ran along several two lane roads that would have been much better if it wasn't raining. We could have used a defroster for some of the trip, but we did OK. The weather did clear up for the last hour of the drive and was beautiful the rest of the day. The car continued to run well. It's probably bad luck to talk about it. The floor in the rear seat was wet this morning from the rain. There must be a leak some were. I will have to look for it when I get home. I did talk to several people who were near us on the drive and they all said the car sounded cool, impressive or scary. One guy best described it as Banging when as I passes another car. I have never heard the car from to out side. It's good to know people like it. The drive from town to town is really pretty cool. It's really cool to see hot rods as far as you can see out both the front and rear. When going through small towns the streets are lined with people to see the traveling car show. Its just like being in a parade. There is nothing like thousands of Hot Rods cruising down the road. We did manage run out of gas today while trying to find our hotel, but luckily for us it was in the gas station across from our hotel.
