Caravan leaving around 7:00pm at Garden Ridge in Lewisville. I35 exit 496B, which is also Hebron, and also 3040, and whatever else that sign says. Or you can exit 121 and stay on the service road. Across I35 from the mall.

I would have suggested leaving earlier and taking back roads but I'd probably lose you guys.

Called me and said he got picked up around Corinth or something. Took him to jail but only gave Craig a speeding ticket and let him go.. Craig got lucky , I think the cops only take Middle-Eastern people to jail..

I had a great time at the meet. But yeah, the trip home was not as fun. We'll have to do this again but I'm setting the cruise and leaving it there next time. Oh well. You play, sometimes you gotta pay.

^His night was much worse than mine though. Yeah, I was lucky. I was like: they are cuffing him and I'm still in the car? WTF?

They were just glad I let them catch me and didn't leave them in the dust.
Seems they were ready for a car chase or something.

I left the cruise on for awhile and was gonna let you go. Just before 380 I changed my mind and decided to catch up. Yeah, running about 100mph for a little while. Then I decided to pass you....


The resulting ticket is gonna be around $360.


It would have to a very specific situation for me to think about running from the cops. I know I can't outrun the radio.

I think I ended up with motor failure of some sort! Overtemp probably, I lost alot of coolant on the way home. Oh well, thats an excuse to by a better combo I guess. I am going to try and salvage my motor for resale.
