    Oh yeah... Whisky's in fer sher...

    Reminds me I need to get my passport... hate getting hollered at by customs like I did last year... b*stards wouldn't let me back into Ka-nah-da like I was some kinda petty criminal...

    This year it would be kewl to take the V-8 car... hopefully with my shorty sidepipes so the customs agents can breathe in my carbon footprint for 5 minutes while they question me on being a British Citizen who lost his Canadian Passport. :naughty:

    Ahem... lost the topic for a sec there...

    Cru-u-u-u-sin' to Colbe-e-e-e-e-e the LONG WAY AROUND babeee! Maybe this time we can take an even LONGER detour since I have new tires and the highway cruise is my favorite part. :drive:

    Coop!... ya got'cher CARB all tuned up?.... :dancing:

    I dont think I will be able to make it this year :cry: It is a double header weekend at the dragstrip and cant afford to miss 2 races when you are chasing the points.

    Maybe just maybe after the races Sunday we can head up there with the race Maverick in tow. If I can find a place to park the trailer close I will just unload it and go to the cruise in with the slicks on.

    Are the registration forms out yet?

    Or you can wait until the last Sunday in July. That's when we have our MCCI Mini Meet @ the XXX Root Beer, in Issaquah. You can trailer the race Maverick & drive it into the show. You'll get all the Cougar owners attention....:drive:

    Arghhhh thats another race day and even a more important race, Land of the Leaders race, not that I win that much. I have 19 points races in the race season for points and then there is the Battle of Detroit (Chevys verses Fords verses Mopars) and the All Ford Drags doesnt leave much time for anything else. I have to blame the wife she has made the team 4 out of 10 years and 2 years we didnt race and I havent made the team yet. But thats okay I still enjoy it

    Looks like WHisky's gonna BAIL

    Well... BUMMER... not looking too good in the passport/citizenship department, so it looks like I won't make Colby this year. Too many problems and too many bills piled up. :huh:

    Because APPARENTLY I have no problem getting into the States, but Canada won't let me back. Shh-tupid.

    Sorry to hear it, and THAT is O.K. Money tight and problems are everywhere right now.
    Still like to see you this summer though. (y)
