The street machine thing is cool. I've been to at least one, and even took home a plaque for best reaction time of the day ---> .503 :lol: as I remember. Any Sunday is good w/me.

My Megasquirt Project

Right now, I'm just posting a link to my 'success story' posting over at msefi.com (the megasquirt web site). But imagine posts something of that nature, maybe with pictures.
