It’s Wednesday. Hot damn tamale, baby! I don’t know how I missed this when it was on the air, but this replica 1953 Corvette roadster was custom built by KindigitDesign specifically for Barrett-Jackson. It features a carbon-fiber body and a custom chassis. Number 8 of a limited production, this Roadster sold for $572,000 at the 2023 Scottsdale Auction. Absolutely gorgeous!

It’s Tuesday. What do you do with a canon capable of launching a bowling ball at speeds up to 240 MPH? If you’re part of the Ballistic High-Speed team then you smash stuff and film it with a high-speed camera! Objects like bowling pins, the ball itself, and even the human body?

It’s Monday. Half of our weekend was hot and the other half not so much. Saturday was great with plenty of sun and temperatures in the upper 80s. Sunday was cold, windy, and rainy—perfect stay indoors weather to watch Martin Truex Jr. win the Nascar race in Sonoma, California. And what better weather to have a nice big bowl of chicken noodle soup for dinner.

I didn’t make it out to the Cruise Night in Morris, Illinois, on Saturday night. But I heard they had 919 registered cars! That must have been awesome! What a great way to kick off the season! There’s also a weekly show out in Plainfield, Illinois, every Tuesday night. I’m hoping to get out to that one this week.
