ducati.. I'd write you a letter but I don't think a letter from a UNCG undergrad would go anywhere

You can't see it in the pic...but the trailer slipped off of the ball hitch and put a big crunch in the passenger side supertrapp.....

I half expected Ingo to have pics up on the damage and the side of the road pull over.....ground down parts on the freeway a bit after I hit a big bump. Dan Byers said it was quite a spark show.

But I figured out what I did wrong, tightened the hitch back down and all was good. Got the ride up to 3,000 rpms in 5th gear most of the way down......

I saw and met MANY pelicanheads, was actually right next to the Pelcan booth. Even ran into the mysterious Jack Olsen....kept going by the TRE booth, but Tyson was always someplace else.

Weather was beautiful, we made a few bucks selling stuff and saw some awesome cars.....too bad about Sam's break in at his shop. If you did not hear, some bastages broke in and scored abot 50K of camera equipment......yeesh, fry the bastages....

Hope the insurance pays it off......good pics Sam.

To Sammy...hope the hang over is better.

I walked away with a harness bar, a 5 point harness, a used electronic speedo in working condition (for R&D) and cat bypass type test pipe all for $155
It was a very good day.

The sunburn and the hangover were priceless.

Beer bellies? Imagine what a gathering of men from 30-70 years old would look like in the mid-west?? Then we can talk serious beer bellies.

Let's please stop showing people in the cold parts of the country what California looks like in the winter time. We barely have enough room for the illegal immigrants, let alone ones who want to move here legally.

I agree! Remember folks, it's crowded, taxes are high, the crazy Governor wants to take the school system down below Mongolia on the rankings, earthquakes, fires, people randomly shoot at you on the freeway, and there are NO nice Porsches at all. The 750 pics Wayne posted...all Photoshop. There were three cars and pile of rusted parts. California is closed, please turn off the lights.

And don't forget you'll that if you sell you 2 acre home back east you can use the proceeds to rent a nice 850 sq foot apartment in the lesser parts of town for about a year with the proceeds.

Hey MikeZ, I saw your rig on the 101 or the 405 on Sunday! I was heading down from Santa Barbara on my Ducati.

Yeah, well, that looks like an OK event Sam. But I had my own little show back east this weekend. It consisted of 1 silver 71 911 in my garage, a lawnchair, a foot of snow on the driveway and a fine Cuban cigar ..... it was actually quite enjoyable. -- Curt

Max - Its a Paso 750... not the best Ducati but I like all the red I'll soon be in the market for a 916.

MikeZ - Didn't know you were in Santa Barbara... I stayed down by the pier Sat night then skydived up at Lompoc Sun morning. Beautiful piece of country you have there.

Us California guys should post pictures of our houses and what their market value is. That should keep people from other states right where they are. You would be blown away at the shacks that cost $500,000.

And all of you east of here, enjoy your basements.
