    Nice looking Micra. Any plans to upgrade anything or do any work on it?

    I'm going to be doing some basic cosmetics..
    Decal Kit to mimic the factory offering, but in a different colour option. Same for the Mirrors and Handles. Mudflaps are on order...
    Decals will be on over the weekend maybe and handles and mirror covers are on order...
    Next summer i'll do alloy wheels likely. Maybe a light tint job...
    Really, beyond that i'll save my money for a Micra Race Car in the coming years if they get an Ontario Series that doesn't travel too much...(dreaming, but really sounds like fun and it's been a few years since i've done something new) Plus the race car and be spare parts for the daily driver!

    Well, Mudflaps are on the Front, the Rear Flaps needs some fit work and i haven't decided how i want to trim it...
    Decal kit went on and I've added the colour match handles.

    So I saw you called your stripe "FralickRacing Green". And there's a Facebook page with Fralick boat racing team including a Graham - is that you?? My parents' neighbour builds & races grand prix hydroplanes - Burt Henderson.

    That is us...I know Burt...nice guy...good boat builder...as you see in the FB page, we run much smaller boats than he is building.
    Not enough cash to play with the big stuff...Our stuff is more weekend fun at a budget below that of Go-kart racing..

    Cool! I didn't know about the smaller boats. I don't really follow the sport, but they do a once-a-year grand prix regatta in Brockville and I usually go down to watch some runs.

    EDIT: The extent of my boat racing experience is much slower & cheaper (I crew in the local sailboat races). And quieter.

    Not if you're crew! And the skipper usually buys the first beer afterward! AND you get to drive the boat when skipper's away.

    Made it out to Picton for a couple days. Thought I would make a stop near
    My dads house for a photo shoot. However, I forgot to pack a memory card for my camera.
    Cellphone show doesn't do the area justice.
