Just talked with my boss...
Apparantly the amount fo fecal matter splattering off the fan around work wasn't enough, so someone threw an elephant sized dook on there... So I'm not making Buttonwillow. Nor am I making ESX... I'm working all through the weekend. ![]() Matt... you'll probably want to reschedule with your buddy down in LA or something... or head down with the rest of the SECCS crew on Sunday. Does anyone know if Alex will give refunds? ugh.... edit: I might be taking some time off sometime around the week of April 5th or the week of April 12th to get down to LA for tuning. Anyone wanna come? We'll rent a truck or something and haul the car down there.

That sucks man, sorry to hear that. If you end up going down there in April, stop by SLO; we're pretty close to finalizing on an apartment down in Grover Beach, and we'll be moving in over the 3rd-4th.

Plus, I might be out the $165 for the track day, and I'll be screwing Matt over for half the cost of the hotel rooms... actually, I can probably get IGT to comp me for half the hotel room since it's not that much, so Matt, if you can't find a roommate I'll still pay you for my half. They might be able to help me out with the track day cost too if Alex can't give me a refund... but we'll see.

On a better note, IGT stock was up a bunch today, so I sold some stock. I'll be able to either pay off my car, or pay off my credits cards and buy a truck, if I can find a decent one for around $2000.
So if you see a quad-cab, short-bed, V8, 2WD (don't wanna spend the $$$ for 4WD) early 90's truck, lemme know. ![]()

Bummer Scott...I had a bad feeling about your trip when you said all this shit was going to happen. If you can't get a refund, maybe Tyson or Mike can run under your name.
I am gonna cancel my LA plans also. Mike, Tyson ( ![]() laters

I wanted a quad-cab just because they're so much nicer for 3+ people... I figure this will be a road-trip machine, and I'd like to be able to haul you butt-heads around with me w/o having to listen to ya'll complain from the drop seats. ![]() I'm in no real rush... I just figure I need something before Nationals, and that's only if I can go at all. Hopefully by then I'll have my car paid off and my credit card balances well reduced (or vise versa) so I might be able to finance the truck, which puts me in the $7 to $10k range for a truck + trailer.

I've been thinking about going to LA around the end of April (22-25 or so). I know that's later than you're thinking, but after watching the ongoing delays, perhaps it would match up. :-/

Nah, a new Class IV hitch is a lot less than the difference between a standard trailer and a 5th wheel.

Hey Kevin... keep me posted on that truck, it sounds like a pretty decent tow vehicle...
I'll do some checking to see how much I'll be able to afford on a tow vehicle, and if I'll actually have room to park something like that. I may have to keep it over at my roommate's Grandparent's house since the place I'm moving too won't have parking for a big truck and trailer unless Matt let's me install a gravel strip in his side yard. ![]()

I'll talk to them about it tomorrow, but I doubt it's going anywhere anytime soon.
