weve had too much going on as of right now on base to even let that be one of our concerns. sorry if we got your hopes up. ill be speaking with the commander about that soon. ill inform you on what day it will be held on. the only prob. is getting people from here on to base due to the fact that i know a few of yall dont have military IDs. prob. is if i have escort you onto base im responsible for you. so there are some concerns about that. i believe they are planning on it during the summer. anymore ? about the course and drag race on the flight line just shoot me a pm.

I'm glad you're happy with it. I'll ride out there with you when you go.

This weekend I'm going to do Mother's Day stuff.

hilton the pull in second gear is crazy. normally second starts at like 45 or so which is an awful dead spot. i can be in second at 25 to 30 give it 3/4 gas and it plants so hard and tries to break the tires loose. i have been having to let out to keep from going sideways. the motor spins up and you would think you were in first and its a steady hard pull to the end of second...75 i would guess. awesome. btw i got all the fittings to clean up the cooler lines like you suggested. get rid of all the unneccesary bends and length.

If it ain't raining and they're open, I'll be there. I'm gonna try to get there early so I can get unloaded and ready before the crowd overwhelms the parking lot.
