Nino;

No thanks. I am going to stop at my local cigar store and spread some of my wealth there.

Thanks for the offer however.

Of course.....I want to see how close I can get to the newer cars, especially John's Z...A few years ago it dyno'd at 515 ......this dyno I'm figuring a 10% drop ....probably 450 at the wheels. We shall see. I hope the clutch holds.

We'll see you there. It is definitely going to be a wet morning so the drive may not be fun in the morning. Going home will be OK.

No matter how Nino tries to "spin" it, his powers aren't what they used to be.

The great Nino cannot overcome the wrath of the WEATHERMAN!
We shall get wet in the AM!
If Nino pulls out a dry morning for us I will NEVER doubt his power again!
(But I doubt that will happen!)
