Talking Two days and counting

We are leaving for North Carolina friday morning! The only thing left is to change the axle fluid. I plan a side trip to see Jody at DP tuner in Georgia one of the days to see what I can do to add a few ponies to the old 7.3. It will be nice to meet him in person...seems like good people. I'll post when I return about it. Any good places to see in the N.C./G.A./T.N. triangle?

It will be nice to have Jody install that chip onsite. There are very few problems that might happen when you put a chip in, but who better to look it over than the man himself.

Be safe on your trip and give a good hand shake to Jody for all the great tunes he's put out to the 7.3 owners. And let us know when you get back and how it went.

Lots of great places to go and see in that Area. Check out lake Hartwell on the Georgia/SC border on your way to see Jody. The North Carolina State Zoo is one of the best I have ever been to. It's right near where Richard Petty is from. I would plan on being there for at least one day but probably two if I were you. It's that big and very interesting if you like that sort of thing. You can go down close to Atlanta to Stone Mountain Ga. and go to the park. There are tons of things to do there as well, hiking, train rides cable car to the top of the mountain. Stay for the laser show at night. It is awesome.
