That was quite humorous I must say. Maybe I paint one gold and bring it down for a Trophy.

Conti tell's me I'm on for tomorrow at 3. (There word is their bond) I really need Thursday. How about you nutmeggers?

I think NJ is safe to get out, Paolo did you have inside info and that's why you're not coming down? I hear you are in for 20". Glad to hear you are reconfirmed Steve. See you there.

We just ordered a set of Gray stands. http://www.grayusa.com/support_stand.asp. We have no affiliation with them, but a very happy customer. After reading about a couple of jack stand failures, and seeing our own set of Craftsman jackstands break (not while loaded) we decided to get a new set. I would not accept anything from China for this type of activity. So we went with Gray. We ended up with the 7T and got a flat base plate added. They shipped same day, and called to follow up.. Great company. I can't recommend them enough. I put the boxster up on them and man, they are solid. They are very beefy so they are a little heavy, but safety first.
