With all that, she won't even break a sweat running 13's. Now if they'd only let you pull the boat at the drags. Running 14's while towing an 8000 lb boat, that would be the sheet!!

But I can't afford the darn boat now...

Anyway, when you coming up to help install all this crap? Hopefully, I'll get to it thursday and friday this week.

Does it have pedals or a motor? I just went for a ride yesterday, saw some cool Texas stuff but ended up all wet.

I've also got a real nice greg powered bike that needs riding.

It's a little rigid framed hot rod sportster. I built it back in 1982 in a shop that Scouder's dad used to own. Scoot and I built motors during the same time period. I'll have to scan some pictures I came across last night from the road trip we took to Cheyenne WYO.

Talk about getting wet!!!

Oh yeah PS....Don't ever let Scoot deal black jack when all the players are drinking tequila...except Brian. He was way too slick, I never caught even when I was seeing both of him.

Ya probably would have been OK if you had ONLY been drinking Tequila. What a night that was! Gawd, I remember that was the first time I ate the worm. Now I'd fight for it. If I remember right we both won first place in our respective categories at that show.

I remember Strokster riding that bike around Phoenix when he was 14. Man, he was cool. Slick little hot rod sporty chopper with a high school freshman on it. It needs to be back on the road.

If you remember right... How could you forget!!! Now I've really gotta get those pictures scanned.

Man I'd love to get my hands on that 96" motor. That's the only bike I've ever heard actually bark the tire shifting to second and you were'nt even on it.

Scouder is way too humble.
