Erik/Saleen,

I'm checking to see what it would cost to ship some Lightnings from the Detroit area down to WFC.

My idea is to get a full truckload of the beasties loaded up and shipped together. This would probably give us the best rate, and let us call the shots on scheduling.

Would anyone else be interested in doing this? It will cost a few bucks, I'm sure, but it will save the miles on the L.

Spiro,

Damn right boy. And while all you guys are trying to run 12s, and ruining your consistency, Miss Piggy will be happily running 13.5 after 13.5 all day, and take home another big-*** trophy.

Hey spiro I hope you mean that when you say 11's cause, Hopefully with my setup I should be right there with you. Are you going to design a cage for us or what. I need a cage, but I don't want some nasty, tear up my truck cage.

All this talk is killing me cause I want to go race already. I think I'll just put myself in a voulentary coma for the next 5 months.

Spiro,

Lots of big talk, young man. I have still never seen you crack 13 with that pig.

We'll be right near Missouri. Show us.

Hope the gathering turns out a bunch of Lightnings! Here's a pic from a trip I organized last May. It is a beautiful sight seeing so many Lightnings!

The only thing I would like to see change in that pick is all of us doing a burnout. That would make ever magazine in the world.
