Default How is everyone?? Its been a while!

I'm deployed and should be home soon. I was gone for the entire summer again.. sucks, but its my job. I wish I could have come to some races this year. I hope to be around next race season, so God willing I'll be able to visit with some of you again.

So how is everyone? What is new? I'm doing well... I'll be selling my 07' GSXR when I get home, but other than that I'm good. lol!

So what happened to Robert? Why did he get banned?

Hey Jon!

I was just wondering about you the other day, and had a suspicion you were deployed, and fighting the good fight. I don't know the details about Robert, but something about a spat with another supporting vendor. You can find him active over here: http://www.nitrousforum.com/

Take care and keep in touch!

Hi Jon, I hope things are doing well for you. I am fine, got a baby boy due to arrive on the 10th of December this year. My shop has been busy as usual, but I see the trend coming that is slowing down, it was a nice summer here, sure went by fast.

Take care and stay safe!

I'm in Turkey supporting operations iraqi and enduring freedom. We are crazy busy here.

Lots of babies huh? Its really good to hear you all are doing good. I really miss coming out to the track and hanging out but most of all racing.

Thanks Chris... I hope to see you soon.

Ellis, when I get back I'll call you up. I'll drag my new gf (you met her) out and I'll buy you a beer or 10.. hehehe

I'd love to see you guys.

krazzycowgirl, you have two new additions? Elaborate please? Its been so long.. I feel disconected from you all.

TJ, you got a new addition huh? That is really awesome. I'm very happy for you.. and a bit jelous. But I'll have a little rug rat of my own one day.

How is Doug, Mark, Ryan and the rest? I noticed lots of your cars are much quicker than last year. I wish I could have been there to see them run.

How is Marks new project coming?

Well, I'll keep up on the board more. Maybe you guys will have some kind of christmas party again or just a hang out.. and I'll get that coveted invitation. lol

I'll check back soon. Your all in my prayers and I hope all is well for ALL of you.

that is alot of miles, but the car looks in great shape for such high mileage. How does she drive? And now you and your hubby both have Vettes!! How cute.. just kidding.

Yeah, I saw the pics of that Z06 Ryan was asking about and it almost brought tears to my eyes. I want one bad... I want an LS1 period! But I'm just not there financially yet. The divorce put me in a bad spot... but I'm recovering slowly.

I should be lucky that I have an LSX vehicle period... know what I mean?

I miss all you guys.. I need to get back on the boards more.

Jon, you got lots of time, you are a heck of a nice guy and you are still pretty young. Don't wait as long as I did, I am an old fart......starting a family at 52 sometimes isn't the wisest thing to do, but I have done things much worse than this in my time

They do. I'm using it now. Last time I was here in '06 there wasn't internet in the rooms. They have WiFi at the bra as well with no "restrictions", but I don't have a laptop. I should be back around Halloween, give or take.
