Thanks Kevin, sorry I didn't get to talk to you. Did you do any good?
I wish they would have prepped the track and put more water down for burnouts. :o(

I pulled up next to your car in the lanes and was going to say hay but you wasn't in it. By the time I saw you we were moving.
I did OK. I'm ready for some -DA weather. Hopefully we will be getting some soon.

Those Comps are sexy. Even better wheels up. Nice! My buddy is selling his. His car is what got me into F-bodies. I wish I could afford the 25k he wants for it. Funny how a stripe on a WS6 is sooo apealing.
