Default Crazy story

First off, I want to thank all the guys at Haddad Motorsports fo doing such a great job. So I go up the road yesterday towing my camaro to Haddad to get it dyno tuned. I got there, and by this time I am 99.4 miles away from my house and my wife goes in labor. I get a phone call saying she was 8cm dialated and the baby was coming in a half hour! Not really knowing what to do, we loaded the car back up on the trailer and i hauled *** back home. I made it back pulling my car with a new F150 on 37 inch tires in 64 min! I made it back just in time with about 5 min to spare. Lets just say I couldnt have done it with out Haddad, and I dont see myself ever selling this camaro!
