I agree. We're bad overdue. Last one we had was a couple of years ago when we had a track day. 41 ls cars and many other makes and models. Was a great day.

So weekday nights.... where are the good places to go? I've been to strange brew on wed for $1 drinks, and the cub on Thursday which had a bunch of lil college hotties. What else is going on either on those days or just other good places in general? Only been here like 2 weeks so still exploring.

Well aside from the two places you metioned, you got the rockin rodeo, sand bar (downtown shreveport), mojos (downtown shreveport), celebrity lounge (sams town casino i think) country crossroads (horeshoe casino) been to most of these. Don't get out much anymore. Hell I've been here for a while and just found the cub the other night. It was a decent place with pretty good scenery.

I dont think that car ran that. I read the dudes posts about how it was running high 13s bone stock. You are aware he was a member on here right? I put the converter and true duals on it and could barely muster a 12.9. But, traction was giving me hell all day

I am a field supervisor and I have eight mechanics that work for me. I have not been able to hire anymore lately because of companies not leasing any compressors due to the low natural gas prices. Hopefully business will pick back up soon.
