I haven't heard anything from him in awhile either. Last I know of, he was swapping in either a TH350 or 400 (can't remember which) into his car.

I can understand keeping the times from being posted, but the best air is out there right now! I'm pissed the traack is only open once more before closing for 5 weeks. Come on management, it's not like it's gonna snow here in Florida!! <img border="0" alt="[Banging Head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" />
