I took him to WEVO straight off the plane. Hayden had all kinds of new goodies to show us..... I delivered the first racing 915 box for the mid engine shift conversion. Its out of Dick Antiones silver 914. Dick plans to have the car done for our PRC race at Thunderhill April4-6th. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)
I then took him to HPH and gave him the tour. Rich spoke to him for a awhile and gave us the time table for delivery of his Viper Competition Coupe. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif) Fun times. Drove back to northbay and took him to what was probably his first Mexican food experience. We will know tomorrow whether or not he survives from the food.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif) |

Anything at all? Are you sure?" I would think coming from where you come from you'd get that a lot. Welcome. Hope you get some rest so you're not dozing off during our dinner. Just so you know what I look like I've included a picture of me. I'm the guy on the left. |

Just before take-off pull out your helmet and put it on. Wear it for the next 8 hours during the flight. Take it off after the plane lands. I bet a totally innocuous thing like that would get you arrested today. |

WHAT??? No more beer for Brad? I'm sure if I dangled a Sierra Nevada in front of him, he wouldn't be able to resist. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)
