Glad to see you got back in time. We pulled it in about 11.5 with a good dinner stop or two. Had a bad rain shower in Richmond that brought traffic to a stop almost. :banghead: . Nice meeting everyone at the CI :seeya

Welcome to Richmond, Tropical Rain Forest East. We made it home safe and sound in around 11 hours. We stopped at Chi-Chi's in Charlottesville though. I normally hate minivans, but must thank the one in West Virginia that took the 90 in a 75 for me. The cop almost hit me pulling out to pull him over. :lol:

Home safe here too.
759 miles : 10 hours, 12 minutes (I called ahead and my wife had already made plans to have dinner with her parrents, so I stopped in Charlotsville for a bite to eat. That added just over 20 minutes)
I got behind a string of cars right after getting onto I64 that were.....um...what's that code again?:confused: oh yea, Driving with extreme vigor. :blueangel: I followed them all the way through Ky and half way through the WVa turnpike.

All The pictures are great, but where is Steve's Pictures?

Mike,

Sorry you had to miss this one :( The Go-Carts Was not what we had last year. :mad (no trophy etc.) Tim and I just raced each other. I won one and he won one. :steering:

I did think about you when we went for Dinner, but didn't have a way to get in touch. We go to Chi-Chi's in Charolettesville every now and then (since we don't have one in Richmond anymore). :steering: We tried to find the one in Bowling Green while we were there, but never found it.

Hope to see you soon. Tim can't wait to try the car out at the drag strip now. He wants to be able to compete at CI-V next year. :reddevil

:seeya

Lunch...try a late dinner. It's a loooong way home from Bowling Green. :lol:

I did see a guy with a beautiful green C4 running at the track that might give your new headers and cam setup a challenge. I wish I remembered the guy's name. He said it was all Doug Rippey. I gotta be ready for our next trip down Route 60 this time. Now, if I can just win the lottery ;).

Or I could just drop that V6 turbo down there that was running 9's :eek:.
