Jeff, I wish I knew those roads better out there. I would have been able to keep up with you better. But every time I heard "blind turn over crest" or "suprise stop sign" over the radio, i would slow down.

and that damn gravel in every corner started to **** me off. Im not used to sliding in my car yet. A couple more times out on those tours, and ill be much faster.

I was way too fast for the slow group and just not fast enough for the fast group.

It works great and has held on the side of my car at over 140mph...After that I knew I could trust it. It been through 3 road tours and I've never had a problem with it yet…note that every time we stopped for a few min Id just jump on and give it a few pumps on the vacuum.

To me it was well worth it, now Id just like to get a better camera

I’m down for anywhere too...MOA works for me...I just wana drink some beer and have a good time

Last time we went to the MOA we went to Famous Dave's BBQ and that was a good time but we can always try somewhere new.

It would be fun to go race against each other on the NASCAR SILICON MOTOR SPEEDWAY after we’ve had a few drinks
