Guys you're absolutely right, Barb has no problems on the Dragon. Actually when I purchased our Crossfire brand new, she drove it to school during the first week we had it, and took it over a 100 coming home long before I ever did.
What I understand is there's no rooms left....yeah that's the ticket.......there's no rooms left.
Jim I appreciate the offer, it's good to know my hood is more popular than I am..
You're right about therapy, I've been going for 2 months now, and it's helped. I saw the Orthopedic doctor for the first time today, and he said he doesn't think it's torn bad enough for surgery. But he's concerned I may have some spinal issues, so now I have to go back for another MRI.
Pizzaguy, You said it all, this is all about family. I love you guys!

Buy it while it's cheap. But wait a few days, it will be cheaper.
Take all you want.
Don't worry, We will print more

Looks like some unexpected circumstances have left me with little to spend. Sorry Pizza and BigKid, looks like I'm sitting this one out.

The car is running great though

You should still swing up on Saturday and meet some folks, even if you don't stay the night and blow $50 on Pizza and smokes.

You should drive up for Saturday any way. A couple of tanks of gas on the plastic card. You will meet some good people and have a great time.

Glad to hear that the colors are in full swing. The last two years, Kim and I were both a bit disappointed to see mostly green.

Stay safe up there, see you in a few days!

One more day at work then major car wash and wax thurs evening ready for a 6am start from Apex NC. Hope to be at Fontana around 1pm on Friday to meet you all for my first Dragon event. I probably wont be able to sleep thurs night as I have been waiting for this since I got my roadster a few months ago.
I have watched all the Dragon videos you guys have posted and can't wait to take part in the runs myself, and the weather looks so good for the next few days as well.
Hope to take loads of photos of the group and be proud to say I am with the Crossfire Forum "family"
See y'all on Friday (I like to use southern slang when I can, even if I am from England, lol)
Andy
