Default Taner in Car Craft!

Sorry your magazine appearance in the latest Car Craft was under such crappy circumstances. I knew it was your car just by the pics and didn't even have to read the caption. I kinda wanted to say congrats but I know how hard this whole thing has been on you and who wants to hear "congrats" for broken bones and car parts. Just glad you're ok and hope we can all meet up again next year.

September 08 issue.

For those that don't know, Taner's clutch, bell housing, etc disintegrated going down the track and caused some serious carnage. I'll let him jump in here when he has some time and explain. I don't think there's anything online but it was a 2-page spread in CC in the "Action" section.

Hey TX20D, have you ever taken your bird over to the home depot on 1431? Only reason I ask is that I swear I've seen your ride around and figured that might be where it was. I used to pop in every once in a while on the "cruise" nights in either mine or my buddy's supercharged 30th anniversary Z. This was a couple years back though.

I haven't been to a meet at the 1431 Home Depot but I do live right off 1431/Mayfield Ranch. I've been to the 620 meet a few times. You've probably have seen me around the area though for sure.

That might've been it. I lived on 620 about 5 minutes from the lake for a year plus. But what's weird is that I've never been to the meet on 620. Weird I know.
