You can get tanked and I'll manage to hook you up with the most horrible girl there :-). When is your car back together mang? i need more power. I can't run with all the prepped cars in solo in Suncoast. Fussing power and brakes. Fixing the brake thing though.

I was so pissed I wasent able to make it fest this year! I want to make it out to more events in 05. I am going to try...key world here being try to put together a Texas Mile GTG in april. We will see how it go's. As well as a dallas/Ft worth 944/951 gtg with a cruise and dinner.

Thanks for the complements..... My car will be back on the road on wed. I shipped the head off to Lindsey today UPS ground and come monday I should have a Lindsey billet bov,stage 1 head, wide fire HG along with the camshaft belt, and balance shaft belt at my house. They should all be back on the car by late tuesday or I am thinking worse case senario wed.

Hopefully so because I set up dyno time at 3p.m. locally here and I need to check my air/fuel ratio's. Maybe I will finally bite the damn bullet and order a PLX with readout. Lord knows I need one.


when is this meet at your house exactly I would love to make it if I can

It is at travis' house/piece of huge land near the cafe risque on 75. As a note the cafe is like the funniest strip club ever. We usually get tanked about once a year and go there. I have lots of funny stories. I should be a good time.
