Bark and I spent the weekend at Laguna Seca driving race cars and eating fifty-nine-dollar steaks. Meanwhile, our sons were busy playing their season championships without us. Bark’s kid won his soccer league championship and was recognized as the best goalkeeper in the league. My son ran for three touchdowns, including a cross-field run in the first play of Saturday’s game, and made several big catches to win both of his team’s bowl games this weekend.
So let’s all sing a rousing chorus of “Cat’s In The Cradle” while we take a look at last week’s contributions.
Bark offered some advice for replacing a loyal Town Car and uncovered treachery on the part of a Kia dealer.
I wrote a piece for R&T about the importance of data in driver coaching.
Not much of a week by our standards, but we were both busy doing other stuff. You’ll be hearing a lot more from us in the next five days — and that’s a threat, not a promise!

About that Barkcast?
Farah got stuck in traffic and didn’t make it to Monterey early enough to do it 🙁
Oh well, still looking forward to the next episode.
Cheers, Michael
I assume that’s not a participation trophy John’s holding in delight .

You assume correctly. John’s not big on participation trophies.
