Sorry Brian, I thought you were making a polite, veiled comment on the status of mine- and yes, I am tormented!
Best Regards,

Thunder Motorsports- it's a one man band east of DS, he used to specialize in P&F cars (mainly racing), now that he is over there will work on anything (was at TWS, before that in Stafford). Shop is on the south side of 290 in the complex just east of the AMM Collision Center.

Ben,

I love John (the IS Thunder MS) and he has been a HUGE help to me at TWS, but man, I don't think I would drop a car off there with him! Donald's experience has bolstered my feelings on that. I just hope Donald gets his car back soon...he has been without it FAR, FAR to long!

Thanks again Guys ! It was great meeting y'all. I have a few pics I will post when settled. It took almost 24 hours to get home as the bad weather caused my flight to run out of fuel and we had to land at a small airport to refuel, then the de-icing truck broke down and we were forced to sit on the plane 4.5 hours waiting for custom officials to arrive, then a white knuckle 3 hour drive in the wee hours in a blizzard home. Worse was while sitting on the airplane, they ran out of booze and it was my wifes 50 th B-Day.

Ole,

Glad you finally made it home safe.

Sorry to hear about the airlines major screw up (running out of booze)

Enjoyed meeting you and hope you make it back down this way next year.

Thanks again for the T-shirt and caps, and all the help on the motor mounts.
