Nice Slingshot Barnes. I've been eyeing them myself. Semi, next time please look at the weather report. I don't want to see you getting fried by a lightening bolt!
I'm back from TX and working on all this insurance stuff again. What a PITA!

Bronko, I did. I did. The report was for scattered T-storms in the late evening. That system blew up out of nowhere. Had it developed 100 South in the Gulf we would likely have had a small hurricane. The whole system was rotating counter-clockwise.

BA, perhaps she doesn't want people to be saying "nice rack" when you guys pull up to a group of other riders.

Rode bikes before I was old enough to have a drivers license and I'm 65. Went through the dirt bike craze too. My first Harley came in 1972, which didn't last long stock. Completely molded it, raked it 21" over Fury twisted steel, painted it with "flip flop" colors, then had a mural of Pandora's Box painted on the gas tank and Zeus on the oil tank. Yup, it was chopped. However, too many stupid people had been breeding and most of them tried to kill me with their cars. My last ride put the "fear of God" in me and I swore it was the last. Sold it and been bike free since. You can have the Vette, I'll keep the Slingshot Its more fun.......

HA!!! You obviously haven't had the fun time of driving a 63 with a 427 stuffed in it!! It's a mod with Strut susp. and ind. rear w. coilovers. Disc all around with a ford 9 inch chunk with 386 GR. and Borg Warner 5 speed. Needless to say, it's a beast!! Nor will the wife let me out with it alone. It also happens to be one hell of a chick magnet I did have to mod the interior a bit so I wouldn't have to get out a shoe horn to fit in it! Those things were NOT built for anyone over 6 feet!
