I'll try and make it in the SUV friday night. Been kinda layed up for the past 3 weeks. Got all the rust cut out of the body, doc say's I'm rust free for now.
Rust being cancer that is. Kinda like an old car, gotta cut the rust off before it spreads and the whole car falls apart.

Well it was nice to meet everyone, I had a little blue saturn try to race me. Needless to say it wasn't much of a race. Maybe we could all meet up and do a sonic cruise or meet at sonic one night. Next time I'll come out longer. The ol' GN sure did sound good cruisin' up the hill. How many other people usually show up?

It was cool meeting you too. Yeah the guy in the blue saturn came back and said you put a few bus lengths on him. I think he said you guys went from a roll or something. He seemed pretty cool.

Usually there's a guy with a bad as heck IROC Z and another dude with a TA. The guy with the TA has been busy for the past few weeks. Sometimes a few other forum members will pop up from time to time. Last night was pretty dead though due to the car show and all the cops out.

Thanks, I have always thought skin cancer was just on your skin and it could be just shaved off or what ever but hell f*ckin no, that **** spreads like rust on an mustang And it goes deep.

Could not make it last night.
