I might be able to do the back brakes Saturday night or something... maybe even all four corners. brakes, plus yacht fuel, plus nitrous, track fees blah blah... its going to be a spendy day for me LOL... another reason why I might just ride up with you...

and another issue that just came up about 5 minutes ago... I'm the supernumerary for the 16th-30th of this month... and there's a possibility of me having duty Sunday.
