Greetings guys,

Hope to see everyone tonight. Sorry for not getting this posted. Some of you might know Lori was in the hospital for about a week and had to have emergency surgery. She just got out a few days ago and is feeling a little better each day. I should be there by 7 if I get out of work at a good time, but will not be able to hang around to give the nite-drive another (successful) retry tonight, but that doesn't mean you guys can't have a little fun.

See you soon!

The infernal belt squeaking that has been plaguing me actually got worse.

THEN, the car decided to blow a coupler or something at the first light. 0 Boost = MAJOR Buzzkill. I cussed the infernal contaption and parked it back at the house.

I would bring the 8 but even when 8's are running PERFECTLY, they kinda suck.

Unfortunately, that is a race where everyone ends up a loser

You going to make it? Still planning on it if this weather lets up.

Was a nice chill little meet. I was there early eating with some friends. Went outside and only chated with a couple of guys and then had to leave. Hopefully my car will be running for the next meet.

Was nice meeting the 2 guys I chated with. Don't remember what they said there screen names were.lol
