If you are going to do May I will come down as well. Let me know when you have a solid date so I can book some travel time.

Sharky, are you on AR15.com?

I'd love to come out, but that is the weekend of the Space City Challenge.

How does May 14th sound guys?

May 14 works for me. I have to go to George's place sometime to drop off my transmission jack for him to use. Can you wait that long George? Let me know if you need it sooner.

If we go to Carter's Country, ammo can be bought there. I'm not specifically promoting that place, I just figured that's a more convenient location given where everybody lives. I'm open for suggestions of other ranges if anybody has any ideas.

Matt you can stay with me if you'd like. Becki would like to see you again too. You could try out that shotgun I was telling you about.

I knew there was a reason I moved out here.

May 14 works for me. So does Carter's Country. Afterwards (or before as need be) we can go across the parking lot for some brilliant Texas BBQ and pecan pie to die for.

I should be able to wait that long for the jack. I got my 80% LSD from Guard and will need to get it installed somewhere, but I have plenty of other things to do including dropping the entire suspension and engine.

I am going to try like hell to get that damned Infiniti out of the garage on Good Friday since I'm off from work and Kerry has class. Great day to get it done. If I get that done there may be an open weekend invitation to the Greaseslingers to drop by for wrenching. I've got a buttload of things to do and most of the parts I need. Once I unload 3 sets of wheels I'll be ordering my dampers.

Cool! Book it, and I'll tell Becki to be expecting you. I've got a couple things here for you, I'll just hold onto them until you get down here.

Look forward to meeting you, Matt. May 14 is right around the time we expect the next shuttle flight, so who knows what my schedule will be like. Hopefully I'll be able to join you guys...probably will.

May 14th...that's the weekend of my wedding anniversary. You think my wife would be swept off her feet if I surprised her with this trip?

[glancing into crystal ball] - Uh oh. BigRed's funeral would be the next week...

May 14th works for me as well. The house in Yoakum is all but finished, so it really hasn't taken much of my time since last year. We were out there painting last weekend and I need to go back out next weekend to install cabinets, but other than that we're through.
So, expect to see my smiling face at a few more Greaseslinger parties this year.

Absolutely come on out!

You met some of us last year at the dyno day at Bavarian Hyper Sports.

I talked to another friend of mine in Houston, he probably wants to come as well. He promised to bring his GT3 if you let him come with us. I figured, who can argue that?
