    now you need to put some air under the back tires to make it even more realistic!
     
  26. Sooooooooo who won what in what class?
     
  27. That's cool, you have such a cool collection, I'd like to see some of it in person. Half a planet away but darned cool! I'm gonna have to plan a west coast trip someday.
     
  28. And you know what, I have made subtle changes like the wheels because of events like this. I know the engine and gear isn't anything close to traditional and if Ryan asked me not to run because of it, I would oblige. I get the event, now I just need to find some traction!

    You know, the class thing doesn't bother me because the award is still up to those who put this event on. I agree there were guys in the stock class and such that shouldn't have been there. But it didn't spoil anything.

    Ryan says he "knows what to do" and I believe him..

    I broke down less than 10 miles from home, just got everything put away and now it's time for me to excuse myself until tomorrow.. Congratulations to everyone involved, Ryan, Marcie and crew, Carl and his outstanding track, and Suit for opening up a great hotel and staff with big smiles and moonshine (even though I didn't get any)
