The rain was like bullets, stinging as it hit me in the face.

We stopped and I bought one of those yellow hooded vinyl rain suits.....jacket and pants. I looked like a big yellow banana driving down the road. For 5 hours I was feeling water trickling down the neck opening in the jacket and running down my chest. As I got close to home my butt was a little tired so I shifted around in my seat and all that water had accumulated in the back of the vinyl pants..........I was sitting in about 4 inches of water. When I got out of the car it was like a flood running out of my pants legs.

Roadster people are a different breed..........coupe guys would never understand.

Been there done that Don.
What that ole sayin ???
"Coupes are for chickens"

No! But I'm sort'a odd that way. I think I might have the "hydrophoby"; look where I've chosen to live.
