Re: La Invasion Rim of the World Cruise
My 3rd gen is mid-LB9->L98 swap, but my 4th gen will likely attend.
(P.S. Gotta call Dyno Don soon about freshening up my 77K mile T-5 to go back in with my 0-mile factory-spec L98.)

Re: La Invasion Rim of the World Cruise
I signed up, but I don't know if I want to put my car through the mountains again before a big race.
Maybe I'll meet up at the bottom though!

Re: La Invasion Rim of the World Cruise
You can cruise for free, but the $20 will get you an event t-shirt, bbq lunch and I thought I saw a raffle ticket also.
Julie, if you don't want to drive you can ride with me if you like.

We should probably meet at Don's about 8am and leave shortly after since the official meeting is at 9am and leaving at 10am. That'll give us plenty of time.

Good shot? More like awesome shot.
At that moment, our conversation was something like:
Her: "Plasma rifle is armed and ready."
Me: "Wipe out that semi. Leave no traces."
My memory is a bit fuzzy.
