Oh, so that's what Scott meant when he said he had a "hell of a day" scheduled for Tuesday....

Actually, Aug, 6,7,8,9 I'm staying at Taboo

Actually, the car was great to drive. And by little, I meant a compliment. The car does not feel heavy or awkward in any way - very responsive,agile plus it was a base car, auto. trans. Of course, since we close to my office and I knew the parking lot was empty, Scott couldn't see me there doing donuts and x-crossing in the parking lot. We were also close to the Silver Dome, where SLP used to do all of its press shows and road courses for the press. But, since I knew if the car got damaged, Scott would have had to pay for it from his GM retirement fund, so I was nice. Plus, I didn't want to have to clean the seat from my passenger. He had just eaten his chicken wings.

My Great Aunt and Uncle owned just under 100 acres of land in St. Williams until last year when they retired, sold the farm and moved to Hamilton (Stoney Creek).

You ever been to Turkey Point Hawkeye?

Scott that I love and we have been at 2 shows now where you had the C-6 at and have not got to take a test ride. This last Saturday night the weather was to bad for that so we forgot about it this time but if not before we will try at BG and Cindy is already putting money in the savings for a 5th gen so get a fire built under some people's rear. It was good to see you again and hang out at the show. [Big Grin]
