Very off-topic but this doesn’t happen very often .

just received a text from my sales manager that my RS just arrived at the dealership. Within five minutes a World War II B-17 just flew over my house . Don’t ask me what that means but it was cool nevertheless.

Agreed. Growing up, there was a guy in the neighborhood who had one and he would make low passes over the lake a few times a year. We still talk about him and that P51.

Unfortunately not, I was there last Sunday. I am not running many HOD events these days, they seem intent on pricing themselves out of the market. But I am considering their 3 day event at WGI in October, you attending that one? I will be at WGI this Wed & Thurs with PCA, bring the RS!
