Asa usual, I will be in London when this one goes down.  Sounds like a great run Dave!   ^6  <1

We're planning on going also!  See ya there...D & L 

Can't wait.  Thanks for organizing.

I think Lance and Dave should be the official "Hardy Boys" of the So Cal Viper Club.  Most excellent supporters of all activities and should be recognized so!  You guys keep the enthusiasm from dying and are the Heart of the Club!  You ROCK.

Forgot to add "EXHLR8N", also a huge supporter!

EXHLR8N,  heard you had a most excellent ride in a Red 05 Ford GT?  Nice to see you in one piece! 

Looking forward to it Prez!

Hi Hemotox,

The Ford GT 40, as you know, is very different.  The sound from the supercharged V8 is very different, the ride through the corners, etc.  Very refined.

The crash was 90 mph sideways into a concrete flag tower surrounded by tires.  The car is at Saleen's being fixed ..... I am thinking 6 months or so, with over $50k in repairs.

The good news is that the  car held up well, which shows how well built it is.

Thanks.  See you when you get back.

Time to put a few miles on her... count me in + 1 :o

Hey EXHLR8N!

For the "Cawthorn cruise" we're going to remove the magnet that attracts you to those cement walls, so feel free to drive as fast as you want!

 ^6 ^6

Are we ready for some(4th) MADNESS ^9 <1 <1 ;D

We've got a great run & Sue's got a great meal planned ^9 ^9

Air the tires & light the fires <1 I feel the need for speed ???

Oh Great One,

That's what I like about you, you always feel the need for speed.

So do I.

Dan

It was great seeing everyone today and meeting new faces.  Thom, I know it was a long haul from Vandenberg AFB but I'm glad you made it. 

Curtis, all the best with your deployment - looking forward to seeing you back on the runs with us as soon as you return.  Do you know what your mailing address will be, if so or when you do have it, can you get it to me?  I'll mail you the club's magazines as they become available.

SUE AND RANDY BEGIN - THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! ^9 ^9 ^9 for opening your home and providing lunch for the group! It was not only very generous and kind of you, the food was darn good!
