I'll let you know. I just dropped my car off to get the tints done, so it'll depend on when they finish it and call me.

I'd love to make it out but I'll be stuck in the studio for most of the week and weekend. Keep me posted on future ones, though, because I'm always driving my car on the rare days/nights off that I get.

I think a 3 way race between the G8, Regal, and LT1 sounds like a great idea. Especially if we go from a dig

Haha, I'm thinking that torque and FWD don't go well together, but maybe that's just me. Hey Nick, when are the new gears going in? And are you getting some sticky tires to go with them?

Fine, then I think that the G8 and LT1 need to run from a dig again.

If it had some decent tires on it they launch pretty hard. Not sure when I'll get the gears, or better tires though.

Hey, Matt, good cruise! Nice to see a bunch of different car guys able to hang out without nonsense. I'll try to make it up to a few more when I can.

Better off having them stay home if they're sick. I sure don't want any H1N1 flu, haha.

I thought it was funny that as soon as you got there that dude with the Honda (he left before we ate I think) started trying to set up races with his buddy's Cobra or something that wasn't even there.

Yeah, it sounded pretty shady when he started talking about calling his friend to come down from Hartford or whatever.

It was sort of a joke. Friends always have super fast cars, people who are there rarely do.

^Ain't that the truth. Right after I raced that 500 hp Evo a few weeks back I had like 5 people come up to me and tell me about some crazy car they were building or some car that a friend had. Never fails.

**** you guys, I'll just bring out my top fuel dragster to the pike next Spring. It runs mid 4s at the track but on my street setup it will probably only run 5s, at least the way it hooks on my street tires.
