Tickets have been pre-ordered (and why not at a $5 savings per ticket).

Dinner would be great. And probably breakfast the next morning at the diner

i am going to get my truck, without title.

im tired of letting someone drive around in a truck i already 90% payed for. i still cant really drive it until the title shows up and its registered and i found out today the title was mailed from the title house in california on the 10th, they mailed the release letter to the title house on the 3rd. why these things cannot be done electronically or over the phone i do not know, Citi is definitely missing out on some great technology.

Good meeting you today, Joey.

Like I said let me know when you dyno your truck I want to see that beast come to life.

For all interested parties it was $75 to run and they kept going until I was happy with the result.

Good evening guys.

No I will not be running the strip do to the fact that we will be in the wife's van.
