Andy, as long as its just 'us,' its like two skunks.

We don't notice the difference.

Now I certainly would not want to go to the dentist right after sampling the food there.

i wasnt there taking pics, that was one of the "track *****". she was standing in the gap. he went to a freinds place in NY who just paid a professional track builder to make a pro-level track for him. the first day the guy did nothing but scrape 18" from 5acres to get the amount of dirt needed for the big jumps. he is probably about 20' in the air, i think that jump had a gap of about 80' peak to peak, not too crazy but you need to commit!

zack- durham has truck pulls this year. ray greg and i will be in NJ racing so we wont be there. eat a few corndogs for me.

Zac, theres a possibility im going, but not sure. If I do go, Ill let you know on here. about the paint, do you live in New London county? theres a paint shop in New London that did paint and body work for me pretty cheap. It was rust repair, so Im sure that a spray will be alot cheaper. its called Shay's Auto Body in New London. I cant remember the street name off the top of my head. and thats funny about that guy that has the same truck as me. btw, Im Brian.
