I like muscle cars and went to the Portland International Speedway for a three day swap meet and later went to the same place for the drags. Drove my 65 442 for 12.5 sec 1/4 miles at 109 mph. That was real fun. If I stayed longer I would have tried some hunting, they have mule deer and elk. The coastal towns are quite nice, went to Astoria for a crab and wine tasting festival. My wife got a tee shirt there that said "smaller grapes make sweeter wine" if you get the meaning. It was a great oppertunity to live the local liftstyle and experience it for ourselves.
Brian you know exactly why I want to be there.

And Rich I'd be in the Eagle Point area. But most of my free time would be occupied plus I'd be hanging more with the diesel crowd. One event on the west coast, a few tech days, and an event on the east coast.

(Same goes for you Pete if you were not able to find one at BestBuy a couple of weeks ago)
im sorry i meant ill pull the model number off the puter, my truck is fine (other than that slipping issue...)

I just meant that if you are trying to pull some stats off of your truck, that you are more than welcome to borrow my DashDaq. It is capable of capturing the exact same data as AE minus the buzz test and tire resize. No point in spending your money when I already spent mine . (Still waiting on the laptop model # too )
