we missed the last one here due to HAIL and Rain. Bryan's car was still under the knife and Tom and I said no way once rain came down.

Bryan, you should definitely get your car in the show. Tom is considering doing it just to get the car with better parking in the gates vs outside. I'm going to try and make it if my father in law is ok from chemo that weekend.

So that's what they call Adult Feature Shoots nowadays?

Seriously...what pageant? One of my sisters was 4th Place Ms. Florida...twice. =)

Oh...and I'm assuming you didn't sell the FD?

Your car was so fast I didn't get a pic of it. Nice run, you should be in low 11's very soon.
