So for the past 2 months or so my dad had been doing 100-120 hours a week, and before that he did 85-90 hour weeks... Now remember he is 53 years old.... He was in an accident tonight from falling asleep at the wheel. He veered onto a median smashed a few signs, airbags deployed and woke him up, he was within 5 ft of slamming into oncoming traffic... He is ok and the car just needs 2 windows and airbags, but I just want this to be a reminder, if you are working that much, take a brake, if your sleepy while driving, please pull over and take a 20 minute nap... I'd never want to see someone getting hurt over working too hard...
He is 100% ok just shaken up, so I take this as a warning to all that being cautious about driving is a big deal...
Sorry for the sob story just felt it necessary..

Fell asleep last year on I-76 at 0200 headed back to Denver I woke up headed into the median at 70 mph as my front tires left the shoulder and I was steam rolling over a couple curve signs ... I only put a couple cracks in the fiberglass hood from hitting the curve signs and was able to slow down and drive it out and back up onto the interstate ...In my case the runs always get botched up and I end up getting back so late it's late morning , And I only manage about 3 hours of sleep if sleeping during the day ,but can't start my work day until I have a legal 10 hr break , which by that time the 3hrs of sleep I got will not carry me though the nights drive without pulling over for extra sleep ,which puts me back delivering late , which now I just say f-it and deliver it late .

Almost ready to burn side #1 in! Grinders getting a workout today! If you'll notice I left the rear part shorter because my plan is to cut the shetty looking cut n fold and finish it off with a new inner fender out of sheet metal. I'm just gonna follow that line exact all the way around the fender.

My newest XJ doesnt have MTR's yet...........
thats right, another xj!!!!!Recently I have started to get rid of them by crashing them, destrying unibodys, and blowing engines!!!
All of you should know who to listen to about MTR's now!! I have prob ran more sets than the dudes that inittially test them! Goodyear should be asking ME for feedback! JK
We will see how these new MTR kevlars do offroad for me. If they suck like the old ones, Bye Bye!
