Anyone else heading down to the Texas Mile next week?
We will be bringing eight pistons and two turbos, divided equally between a bike and a car. Looking foreward to a great time (but a long ass drive)!

I'd like to go see the busa run, but I can't make it. I'm sure it'll be a good time! You should try and fly out, prices are pretty reasonable right now.

I would love to fly, but someone has to pull a big ass trailer down there. 22 hrs. 1 way divided by 2 people is two 5.5 hr. shifts each- a lot more managable then if I left Sean holding the bag!

You all are missing out- there are some badass cars and bikes down here! A supra went 251 this morning, and several bikes are in the 240s. A couple Lambos, a Bugatti, some really high dollar stuff getting beat on.

Broke down on the ride home- sitting here pissed in a hotel room in Texas. Bad day.

That sux, will you be able to fix it without taking it to a shop?

Yup- a little trouble finding parts, but we got it back in one or two chunks. Looked like it was going to get expensive for a while, though!

'92 E250. Old junk van with a 351. We should have just rented a UHAUL and been done with it, but I guess you live and learn, eh?
