Just go over it Jaime. Create a check-list of things to go wrong, or just convert to carbs (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) Once I'm back at school, we can go over everything, pre-flight checklist per say. and SB is really only 2 hours in a 914..haha
I've made that drive many a time for Field hockey games for the GF. It's an easy drive, apart from the giant hill right south of Oxnard. That is seriously tough on cylinder head temps. What put you on the flatbed last time? |
