Aw Man does that bring back memories......But not what you might think.
Friend and I were going thru sports car Competition Drivers School, at Blackhawk Farms South Beloit.....private race track.
This was when Cheech and Chong were just coming out with this routine.
He and his DW, myself and my DW were sharing a motel room off the Interstate....on the top of the hill.....("hill" is important).
Few other racers had rooms as well....
Turtle Creek was flooding over ....down the hill, the Holiday Inn, next to the creek flooded out.... where most of the rest of the racers were staying.
So they were coming up the hill in the evening to get rooms out of the flood.....
Friends wife went out the door to see what was happening...in her night gown....and the door slammed shut...locking her out.
So now it was the "Knock, knock, knock......"...Who's there?'......
She says "It's Dave, man".....and we were off laughing and giggling along with a whole parking lot of displaced racers, crews, with wine and brewski's ....and a motel manager that made sandwiches, and freezer pizza's.
We had to get dressed again and partied all night as the track was flooded...so no races the next day.
Seems as the Holiday Inn had the wine celler in the basement....wine racks got flooded, soaking off the labels.....so the displaced racers showed up with all this wine, that we didn't know what it was...that was given away.....
The old "Put it in paper bag, and it will be fine" was the order of the evening......
Just played that clip....DW says...."Now what does that sound like?....Dave's not here!...Bhohahaha"....
After all these years.
Thanks for the memories.....
