First of all, many thanks to Tim & Hacker, and especially to your wives. They are both as gracious as they are beautiful.
I would also like to thank the entire state of Wisconsin for organizing a welcoming party for me on Highway 43. As tight as things are for all the state governments these days, I feel it's only right for me to pay the tab for that party. I promise to send a check in the next few days. I think I have a picture from that party somerwhere here too.
The trip back home must have been the most boring drive I have ever had in the shark. Killed me getting passed by all the minivans.
Pix here are not the clearest, I think they are a pretty good represention of how I was seeing things around 5am.
Speaking of 5am, Todd, if you are reading this, it was a very great pleasure meeting you.
Had a blast guys, great to see you all.

Katie and I had an awesome time. Just wanted to send out a thanks to Tim and Rachael for all their hospitality, and to Erik and Lorelei for hosting the game. It was great to see everyone, and also to get a chance to see all the bits and pieces of the current Murf kits. There are lots of clever little details that you just done have an opportunity to see with the kits on the car. Build quality and the level of thought on these kits are amazing.
Looking forward to next year.
Thank again for everything!

One of the best events we've attended! Thanks to Tim & Rachel - you have a beautiful home, great kids and even your pets were welcoming! Great food all weekend too. Also a big thanks to Eric and Lorelei, we had a blast at your place, and it's comforting to know that I'm not the only woman who wields metric wrenches and knitting needles. We need to hang out more next time! It was great seeing and spending time with everyone, I'm pretty sure I was smiling and/or laughing the entire weekend, and the drive home was long and sad. Can't wait till next year!

well,
i would begin with an overwhelmed thanks to murf, rachel and the whole murphy clan. gracious and giving hosts, kids that would make all human beings proud, and a garage that makes me... "jizz in my pants!"
to the attendees, my bretheren, my fellow damn yankees, "what happens in the garage, mostly stays in the garage". tru dat.
to those who would need data on the heavy breathing sharks, tweaked so gingerly (as with a bugs bunny mallet) by said gracious host:
rhudy's fishy fish: 1/4 mile- 3 pulls all 12.9 at 110-113 mph at the trap
(with a 2-3 AT shift that was cheese curded by a possible B2 or B3 piston shenanigan). B2, B3 whatever it takes
murf: 12.5 at i think 115mph ? (cmon, i was too busy dancing around with unicorns, rainbows and elfgrass to notice!)
andrew: well, he can ansver that, mr. goliak. ANSVER DAT!
dyno: i win. 491hp 438tq with a bad maf. correct me if im wrong but corrected hp was 510hp. AO? Adamson? Bueller? Bueller? Frye?
and finally, on the festivities. the gala square dance or cacophony of shenanigans. the sound of fred flintstone's tippy toes whilst bowling... oh wait, make sure to orientate your nucular misunderestimation irregardless of your blah blah blah. and that is all i'd like to expound at this particular juncture.
jimmy, tony... missed ya being there. make sure to have katy (not our katie) call in and say you are well to attend... (animal house if you missed the reference).
homo 1 out
no really, im out! (in all my finger snapping rainbow bumper sticker sporting glory!)

Time to update that avatar, Rhudy. New Aero mirrors look great!
STD correction yielded Rhudy with 504RWHP, with 449 TQ @ 12psi.
Sadly, I was a mere 426HP, with 440TQ @11 psi. Not sure if there is a boost leak or if my flappy torque tube was at work there considering I did 443HP last year at 9.5 psi last year. Hmmm...

Uhg, Being a Coloradoan and Bronco fan I managed the nerve to open this thread after the pounding we took. Looks like fun and I didn't see any actual references to the game!

It was definitely another great time up in Green Bay. It was really nice to see some new faces make it up there, as well as the usual ones. The weather for game day was perfect. For the drag strip it sure wasn't, but after all, it is October in Green Bay.
Ummm.... the drag strip? I'm affraid to go look at any PT Cruiser forums.
Brian, I don't know if you got a printout of your dyno run or not, but here it is. Fix your flappy! (No, that's not a euphemism for something else)
