I was thinking of buying a poster of this one, but the 64 is not a very clear image.

I have seen some guys get over 500 horsepower from those 3.8's with the new tvs replacement for the m90.

Well, he finally let me know about this place where you guys hang out! Now- I can defend myself in person! A knife to a gun fight!!! That's about what it was. The joke of the night was I kept on seeing this "wall of blue" passing by me every time!!! It was a great evening though! We are going to have to have more of them. Maybe, just maybe, Roys foot will slight, or he may even sneeze for a moment off the line. If this happens, I'll tree him and go for the win!!!
