Ya, thats what sucks here. No beach and smog...lol. I'll be looking out for him. Tell him to check out www.vegasrotary.com, but its been down lately. We have meets at in and out on sahara every thursday at 8:30 pm till like 11:00 or later. That would be great to see him.

There's a guy here (Ray), that has a 82 GS im pretty sure, tender blue or one of the blues and has a mikuni sidedraft and he does smog so he could pass him.
