thanks to shawn for letting me test out the Sprint Booster. I hit 115mph on that road...Good thing there were no cops.

The cop would have us. If I started to with him, he would have told me to get out. Then he would have me...

Then I would have had to say to my car and license...

All while you guys

...lol...

Yea, they dont like when people do 115 on public roads. Not sure why


Great meeting you guys. I would post pics but most of them came out crappy, since I was trying to take 3 pics with different exposures to try out HDR. Oh well. Next time.
