I was amazed it cleared the rail that pushes the car through. It's a touchless wash one but still.
The car wash is in Mill Valey and they always have HUGE dollar cars going through. I guess rish folks need clean cars to?

Not cars, but a cool tour group rolled into the dam while I was there shooting. Unfortunately, the shortest glass I had with me was a 400, so it was difficult to get any full shots, but you can get the idea of how cool these were.

I'm surprised Nick would drive it around with no plates when he has a perfectly good truck and trailer to just go pick it up.

At the local wed drag races at Infinion

Talked to the guy and he had it imported. Was a huge crowd draw. He ran against an E63.

Pretty cool. There was also a guy there with an actual E60 M5 6spd manual. Rare bird.

Also got to see a stock CL65 AMG run a MID 11 quarter. Holy TT V12 power batman!!
