Oh how I’d love to participate in face- to-face meetings and see the friends I’ve made over the past seven years as a member of the Chap- ter. Irene and I have always felt so welcome at our events and enjoyed the camaraderie of the mem- bers. The pandemic has made it impossible for us to get together unless we stay in our cars and are six feet away from one another while wearing masks. There were two times when we were able to see each other but I only made it to the one at Seneca Creek Park. It was fun and sparsely attended as we expected. Nevertheless it was fun. As you know from previous “Commanders” I didn’t make it to the tour out in western Virginia but enough members did to make it a success under the pandemic conditions.

Hummingbirds primarily eat flower nectar, tree sap, insects and pollen. The hummingbird’s fast breathing rate, fast heartbeat and high body temperature require that they eat often. They also require an enormous amount of food each day. Hummingbirds have a long tongue which they use to lick their food at a rate of up to 13 licks per second.

  • Avanti: Project Automatic Overdrive by Bill Henderson, AOAI Pennsylvania Member, [email protected]
    Avanti: Project Automatic Overdrive By Bill Henderson, AOAI Pennsylvania Member, [email protected] I hadn’t owned my Avanti very long, when on an early summer morning drive on the Interstate to a club event my wife commented, “It doesn’t seem happy.” I could hardly argue with her. In fact, I was thinking the same thing. It was a hot day. Keeping up with traffic at 75 MPH the car ran smoothly but the engine was screaming like an over‐ revved sewing machine. The tachometer read 3300 RPM, and I kept wishing I had another gear to shift to. Further, by the time we had reached our destination more than an hour later, we were both drenched with sweat, as the footwells and console were radiating heat worthy of a smelting oven. The chrome shifter was so hot that it couldn’t be touched without risking blisters. Even the air coming in the floor vents offered no relief as it was scalding hot, passing as it did through the oven–like cowl and past combination of summer driving, today’s faster the firewall before reaching our feet. “That car highway speeds, the high rear gears, the ancient needs air conditioning,” said my wife with some transmission and the fiberglass floor and firewall annoyance as we joined the party, our backs soaked made me realize that I needed to address the issue if with perspiration. I frowned. Installing air I was going to enjoy this car for years to come. conditioning on an R2 is a highly custom proposition, Besides insulating the floor and firewall, I needed to and I knew deep down that no auto air conditioner reduce the engine speed on the road.

  • 2002 LEXUS SC 430 Following the Disappointing Results Obtained with the Previous Generation of the SC, Lexus Is Back with a Hard
    2002 LEXUS SC 430 Following the disappointing results obtained with the previous generation of the SC, Lexus is back with a hardtop convertible, the SC 430. The rigid aluminium roof folds down into the trunk. With the top up, the SC looks just like a coupe. Inside Despite the car’s low stance, it’s easy to enter and exit the front. The seats are extremely comfortable, with good side and lower-back support. The driving position is excellent, but the front of your leg can rub on the emergency brake pedal when you use the footrest. It’s also easy to step on the emergency brake pedal on the way in,. The rear seat is so unusable and hard to reach that you can’t help wondering why Lexus even bothered. The seatbacks are much too upright, and there’s no semblance of comfort even with the front seats moved up to free a bit of legroom The designers would have been better off simply converting the space into a storage area. Rumour has it, however, that the rear seats are there for insurance purposes, a four-seater, even a make-believe one, being cheaper to insure than a two-seater. The trunk will no doubt give new meaning to the notion of “travelling light”. Cargo capacity is almost non-existent. The only place where there’s room for one or maybe two suitcases is behind the front seats. Convenience and safety The cabin is very well finished in top-quality materials. However, we could hear creaking sounds, both with the top up and down.
