Redbeards 914-6 - heck of a ride!
Had dinner with Redbeard tonite - great food but the real highlight was the road rocket 'Suicide Blonde'.
That car is sump'n else! Thing holds the road like its on rails! Has the pop like a .357. Very sweet Red, very sweet.

Wow. I remember when I was just a we lad what it was like to be in the studio with Redbeard. Never knew he had a 914. I guess there are things he didn't care to share on the radio.
Dan Cashman has a few that are insane, DC racing.

It's always fun to talk "Off-Topic" with one of you in Person. Mike, I'm glad I was available on short notice. Good Steaks, Great Company, and tag team service!

I couldn't have given you the "holds the road like its on rails!" experience, but I could have given you the 50 BMG pop
 . Maybe next time.
