My SVX Was Assaulted!

Okay, so perhaps it wasn't a MAJOR assault, but the little runt could have done a lot of damage! What tipped me off? Well, when I opened the hood, there was rattling in the hood - turned out to be corn! I am still not sure where hte mouse got the corn - certainly not from my garage!

Anyway, another trap tonight to make sure he doesn't have a friend!

Holy cow Harry!

I found a mouse in my wife's trunk last weekend. Not sure what attracts them to cars in the summer months as it's warm outside???

Either way, glad you caught the little bugger!

-Chike

P.S. Your engine bay stills looks spotless!

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.

You were missed at WSSC Auto-x, Bill! Great course this time. And beautiful weather too! CHARLIE left the area early morning hours on Sunday, leaving clear a sky and sunshine!

My son Tom beat me again in his Focus SVT - by 1 1/2 sec. I either have to get new race tires or learn to drive better - perhaps BOTH! RUFUS was within 2 sec of the fastest time of the day (as was my son)! Ron did well too.
BTW, check out the attached pic of him at Summit Point leading a Mustang SVT Cobra R through a turn. Of course, at the next straight, the 390 HP passed him like he was sitting still

Re the mouse, I just hope he doesn't have any friends. If so, I think I will catch them and send them to Kelli
