Just saw it at a gas station today. So many cars it is hard to keep. Over 50% of cars have LS motors.

I got caught up in the Power tour yesterday when I went to the Rousch Yates used parts store in the Lakeside Race Park in Mooresville. I had no idea the tour was coming, and it was busy. A lot of guys were in the RY buying everything.

I got a free T shirt and lunch just for being in the right place at the right time.

I saw a '59 2 door black Cadillac that was to die for. A lot of nice cars were there.

You guys went to dinner and I wasn't invited? WTH?

You're always invited when we go tot he kart track. I'll let you know the next time we go. Can you get off for a trip around lunch on Fridays? I don't know when we'll go, but I'll put you on the call list for sure.

I am obviously working the wrong job, you have time for go-kart track excursions during lunch? You take a lunch break?
