Who's up for Duclaw after the event? Only a few minutes further out and much better than Chili's

Depending on when we finish, I may be up for that!

Just go the car corner-balanced and aligned at York's in Mount Airy. Really excited to try it out. Also Really Sorry I won't be able to make Duclaw after the event--previous engagement. Sounds like some Tasty Beverages.

Denise, sounds cool. You know an adderss or website for the place?

Dan, if your numbers are good, you are going to enjoy having a precision alignment! Did they give you a print out?

I probably will finally show up! I miss cooking hot dogs and sausage for you all. I've been spoiled with a neighbor that smokes ribs...so haven't felt the urge to grill.

No sausage love for Ed?

Only because it is Bowie. If it was Hylton or James Wood high smoking isn't allowed.

Lol, nope. It's a comment about Ed being MIA from our events.

Yeah, he's hunting and the thing weighs 1,000 lbs!!! Ed Chan and some others have seen it. His ribs are damn good!

Wade Chamberlain wrote: No sausage love for Ed?

Aw, plenty of sausage love for me!!! Unfortunately, not much else....

WRX11 wrote:Does this mean my grilling sucked?!

Um, I had a few PMs, voice mails, e-mails concerning the person grilling....yes....yes, there were quite a few complaints. Sorry! Plus, you're just too serious behind the grill. Stick to head organizing and leave the suntanning to me.

I think I'm riding the Harley down to the event and snag a ride w/ someone like Mark Anstrom (ahem!) or anyone else.

Since you're bringing the Harley, I'll have repair stations setup on route 7, I-495, route 50 & 301.

H.D.- the world's most efficient means of turning gasoline into noise without the harmful side effects of horsepower.

OK, I'm done now.

Camber -2.5/slight tow-out/minimal caster front and camber -2.9/slight tow-in rear. The car handles MUCH better and I worry that I won't be able to rotate the rear-end(REALLY sticks).
