There you are! Thanks for the props, I thought it was time for change so decided on the facelift since my 55 wasn't going anywhere.

You should try to make it to Sacramento this weekend. According to the experts the track conditions & DA are very promising. If not you gotta make it to the next Famoso event.

That is way tooooooo far to drive for a busy girl. I will try to make it to the next Famoso event. I feel bad for the east coast guys being snowed and rained out this weekend.
I can't wait to see a new pb for you. Kick some butt!
