Damnit man, you are like the hundreth person to tell me I look like that guy.

Well, we are back in doha, Qatar right now. We were hoping to make some test hits today to see if we can get this thing to run in the 7.40's off the foot brake. Going by the datalog on our last 7.62 hit, we think its going to happen. Too bad it is too windy over here blowing dust on the track so we can make any hits today. DAMN THIS SUCKS
