Nope, i just got home. We arrived here in Orlando around 2. Then proceeded to meet with forum member Factory Race Car, and load up Stephens car and tow that to his house, had a heck of a time getting that off the trailer. Then, went to dinner with EG, Factory Race Car, JeepTJ, his wife kathy, and myself.

The cop and the tow truck driver were both AWESOME. The safety guy who stopped and gave us waters was very nice as well. I have no complaints about Georgia.

Thanks Stu - man, that is a generous offer. I have a DD, no worries. Grond will be down for about 4 months

Thanks again Stu - and to everyone for their help ad support.
