I am caught up to the end of March, woo hoo.

I mention that because Glen was telling about taking a big guy on the freeway ramp and it reminded me of a guy I took for a short ride in the Cobra. He was a big guy, played fullback at Texas A&M and we were at a Superbowl party with my sister and BiL. At halftime he asked if the car had any power so I said lets go find out. At the time it had the BFG tires since I didn't know about the Goodyear Billboards at the time and it had the tall 2.73 rear end in it. As I shifted from 3rd to 4th at 110mph the back end side stepped a bit and we accelerated, pulling strong up to about 145. When we got back he was all smiles but later my brother in law stated he didn't think it was possible to scare Bubba, but he was proved wrong.
