So if I have the Gymkhana suspension option, does that mean my Vette can do that too?

DZ, you mean you don't drive your 68 like that?

If the drifting craze gets bigger, we should all buy stock in the tire companies.

Rick,
Great photo of Red! How much snow is on the ground now where that shot was taken? We're gonna hit 70 here today so it's more saddle time on the Harley today. Still putting in the DynaMat on the beast, sometimes I think that project will never get done.

Way Cool.

I'd love to take my Vette out on something like that. Maybe a little less intense but that would be fun!

We got about a foot of snow the night before last, we still might see
50+ degrees by turkey day but winter is here for good now. I won't get anymore saddle time on my bike until April or so.

I took the picture from my deck, the car is on my side lawn.

You'll get the beast done Tom and then it'll just be a pain deciding which toy to take out.
