Glad you like the new vehicle. Fast?

Harry was a bit sad to see the MKB go. Regardless, Harry says he will contact you via myspace a little later but for now says it was cool to see you again and will bring his AUDI at the next meet.

Anyways, forget the next meet-- where are all your pictures?

It was pretty bad on the 5. I also stopped for dinner with some friends so that took about 1.5 hours. But yeah...from the time I got on the 5 from the 2 freeway it was 20 mph all the way to the 605.

Haha!! I had a thick sweatshirt in my trunk, too. Oh well, my fat *** is insulated!!

Dude, I grub at the buffet all the time. I usually hate the wings. Maybe you got a special deal?!?!?! Haaah, I may go hit up on the buffet today just for comparison.

Thanks to the "hostess with the mostest!!" and the sponsors. The trophies did look very nice!!
I'm already thinking of all the mods I gotta get now that I have been enlightened on the value of a warranty. Hehe!!
So many nice rides I don't know where to start, but Vic has one bad *** car. I knew he had some ***, but that traction is amazing!!! I have never seen an E lift the front end like that!! Looks like wheels and tires will just be a start for me. I can't wait to see Vic and BENZgal race it out for the fastest E in town!!
Thank you for all the nice words. I am glad you remembered our warranty conversation. You gotta give something up for exteem HP. Hehe! Look forward to seeing you at the next meet.

Vic does have a sweet ride thanks to Evosport. They put out one sick car!

Sorry about the burgers guys. I only brought 40 cause we had chicken. Thank you all for not bailing after the food, and sticking around for the rest of the show. It was fun to watch Brad count numbers.

I was the sponsor of all those Meguiar's gifts, and I would like to indian give by asking someone to come wash my car and wax it. J/K

Chris, they're up. Sorry they didn't turn out as good as I expected. The creativity level was on empty yesterday without my tripod.
