thanks guys, 417motorsports, your right about the rain, I was beginning to worry that the shoot might not happen, your duramax wagon is awesome, maybe next year all the lat g guys can get together at the nats, it would be cool to meet everyone. After the shoot my wife said good now we dont have to come to the car craft nats anymore and I say, no, now we have to start a new project..

Who watched the burnout contest. There was a car that was ripping it up and displaying pinkish red smoke. It seems like he had a canister filled with some type paint that trickled unto the tires. Anyway, my 10yr old got a kick out of it.

Congrats to both of you guys!! I saw the Bee and it is gorgeous!

My weekend wasn't so awesome, overflowed the radiator on Saturday crawling through the crowd so I didn't get to wander around much, had to drive my old lifted Silverado into the show on Sunday to carry the cooler...I think people actually thought I was showing it, but it IS Minnesota, so I got some positive feedback.

Next year we need to get a bunch of Lat-G cars together and represent. I managed to get my car over to my buddies tents later in the day and there was an aluminum radiator/Spal fan vendor...so I got my wife some new anniversary gifts.

Actually a few years ago Kuhmo came out with a line of tires that had flare powder mixed into them for their drift team. They have yellow, red and blue versions. They are very hard to get and fairly expensive when you can.
