[Doug242ti]

[PWRPUFF]

Down in San Diego county, Doug. April 9th - same day as the SCVCOA dyno run.

[bugzy]

Doug, you should seriously come to Lake Hodges BBQ ... its one of the best events SoCalEuro does ... all the lil BBQ's we do are fun

its totally chill, people bring their kids, wifes, girlfriends, whatevers ...

its good times ... im sure this one will be worth driving for ;)

[Doug242ti]

I'll have to see :*( I'm MEGA burried at work and I really have to rebuild the front suspension next weekend. I've got wheel bearings in the front making noise like no tomorrow.
