Boone and I were in the Valiant before the others were quite loaded up, and decided to leave ahead of them. "Everyone says these M/T ET STREET bias tires are pretty marginal in the rain, so we may be driving pretty slow", I told them. "Yeah, if you end up in the ditch, at least you won't be taking us with you", Darryl laughed.
The rain was gone, the road, while certainly wet, didn't have standing water in it and the car felt fine to me. We were halfway there when the phone rang, it was Dale. "Belvedere won't start, no fire". "Is Darryl still there, do we need to come back for you?" "He's here, we'll figure it out, you go ahead."
