Thanks for the up-date, sounds like a fun time. I always LOVE IT when you can blow some V8 minds with a little "six show"! You say there were 10 other SL6er out there?!? I hope you "buttonholed" them all, at least told them to check-out the web site(s) or get in touch with the SSRN. We can never have to many "Slanted" people in the group! DD Quote: : : hey guys.
