Default Goin back to Germany...NOW WITH PICTURES!!!!!

Welp, as many of you know, I'm heading back to Germany for a motor install and some tuning. Todays the day we're leaving.
I'll be blogging a little bit from over there. If anyone wants to keep up heres the link to the blog.

Hopefully we will have an uneventful flight both ways. Last time they had to divert us to Ireland on the way back, due to a smell that smelled like electrical burning.
Anyways, we/I will be installing a stroker we sold to a client over there, and I have several to tune, including a couple Vettes. Hopefully we'll have some dyno vids, and maybe even some Autobahn high speed vids.

Jaeger Schnitze is the one with the brown sauce and mushrooms.

Spaetzle is a "homemade" noodle.

Can't wait to get home to the Frau so she can cook for me.....
