Yeah man I would have been more than happy to lend you a hand. I know I don't know much, but I would be there if you need an extra hand. Cage looks good. I can't wait to hear and see your car run. We need to get Rodney to man up and move this way, haha.

Yea. The car club my dad was in ran the car show. I probably parked you. I was in charge of parking and helped judge a few classes as well. My car has been at the show up by the club cars by the highway. I parked mine over there with them. Ive been to most of the SCenter cruises etc.. Im sure I have seen you around and vise versa.

Yea, need to get the group together. I try to keep an eye out here between my schedual to see if I am missing anything. Andy, if you know of something make sure to facebook me as well so I have two places to check. Sometimes I miss the initial invitation on here and dont catch on.

I will keep you posted on stuff Trevor. Are you going to be around the Ames area this summer? I have a feeling this summer will be pretty fun. I can't wait.

One day its 52 degrees and your driving around with the windows down or at least cracked. The next day we have a blowing snow advisory and the temp is in the single digits. Gotta love Iowa's weather.

Chances are yes. Fiance will be working in Ames so I dont see myself leaving her for he summer. PLus might take up a few courses as well. So I should be around. I will have to make sure I get my car up here more than I did. I knwo you had seen me driving in the Grimes Urbandale area, but I swear I never saw your car...Someday, as long as Idont have a **** ton of work to do on the days of the installs!

Yep, went out to start my car at 6:30 this moring, almost didnt have to. Get to Urbandale and at noon I almost had to go out and start it early. 30-40 down to single digits in no time......

Yeah man, if you do you get a chance to win a free system. I like free **** man. Hopefully by next fall I can add some nitrous to it. Might save that money and put it towards a rear though.
