I have been told that I will see it New Years eve. I can't wait. It's been gone so long I have almost forgotten what it was like.

I know most of you have jobs that interfere with weekend jaunts but this should be a fun drive. If I get enough response I'll do a little digging and try and get us a good rate and some extras.
cant wait to see it.

Dude where has everybody been? Anywho,

I may need more details on that ride Phil since I'll be working Wed-Sat...

Mike... what up foo! I've been on the field training and can't use phone while we drive (we'll see how long that lasts - at least during training )

Gil... internet through Embarq is cheaper than ***

I exchanged Midnight Club: LA for Resistance 2 and also picked up Mortal Kombat VS. DC Universe also thought about getting COD: World at War... i dunno, but for now i'll be waiting on Street Fighter IV

OK G'nite!

The ride sounds like fun but it really depends on the dates. I go to L.A. almost every other weekend to see my daughter or she comes up here so it would have to be the right timing for me plus we are in the middle of buying a house right now so I don't know how that will play into my finances.

On another note, I can't go to another meet with Phil making fun of my stock exhaust, so I'm stuck between MazdaSpeed and Racing Beat. Any suggestions?

I only have one affirmative and two maybes on the drive list. It's hard to get a deal with maybes but I will try after the new year.

Personal preference is Racing Beat.

I'll be in L.A. for Christmas or I'd be driving around with you and Mike. I guess my Mom knows Pacquiao and we have to go see him on Friday or I'd be at the weigh-ins for the UFC 92, hey how come I never got any tickets to his fights? Anyhow, your present won't be here till next week-I hope you like bling.
