If things go well, I'll be in IN all day tomorrow, should be back for Photo's though. Gonna need someone to drive the 3rd car now.

Not sure if I can make Meijer tonight. If I do I'll be part of the 'after 9pm' group.

Tonight I'm on Roadside, wow what a surprise that is. Sat and Sun is my final time to prep the car for the Nats so if I get enough done on Sat that I am satisfied then I'll be out at Photo's prolly with the Mopar though, simpler that way.

Yeah the weather really did clear up holy crap.

I have no idea actually. Never been to it. Does look like there will be voting and judges though.

The Batmobile and Kit car will also be highlighted. Visitors and assigned judges will have the opportunity to vote for their favorite car to determine the winners in a variety of categories of the show. Refreshments and entertainment will available.

I refuse to do anything that blackdog guy does. He is retarded and so is his little lacky that helps him.

If I am still drunk when I wake up on sunday from timmy's bachelor party I might change my mind who knows

We could find dirt within 30 seconds of washing a car.

I will be out tonight, probably the usual time.
