Man I would love to, but I am kind of overwhelmed at work. Gerry told me about it and I said if things settle down a bit I just might take off with him, but not sure.

Craig I just saw the video, as we say in Boston, your engine sounds wicked pissuh. Seems to accelerate rather nicely, yeah how about, wicked fast. Anything touched by Spin seems to have a magical way of becoming much more than just the sum of the parts.
I gotta see it in person...road trip, yeah

Hey bobby where have you been hiding? You don't come down to OBI's anymore. Hope you can make it there this Sunday. I am changing to NPP LS3 cat back with the mild to wild set up. Shortly after driving craigs beast, it took me but about 5 seconds to realize that this is the sound I want, ordering the NPP cat back tomorrow.I get the best of both worlds...

There will be buds......

So far in our group, Me, Spin, Gerardo from DSV, Jogar (and Im sure his buddy Roland), Pipedreams, Miaugi (maybe).

Cory Harris will be there, Chuck CoW, and a lot of other forum guys. You will have the time of your life for sure.

Enjoy it for now, we should have everything up by next week sometime.
