Electrodes on the spark plugs where completely gone. Thought I fouled them or something....ended up being worse. lol.

You talking about that nutty bike crew with the crap on their helmets? I heard the Ram SRT-10 guys were kind of fools, too. Cruise was great, though; I hooked up with DavidF and we got in with a decent bunch to cruise down there. Worst part was the wait on the toll bridge (actually, it wasn't bad; I just had to pee something fierce...). Croud was too big to all fit at one restaurant, so it kind of fell apart after we at, plus it was getting late, so no big line-up on the hill (some may have gone down there). Overall, it was a blast; great cars, great weather, good food, even a few hotties... 
I'll try to get up some of the pics I took later tonight.

Yea, some of those guys with the mohawks were 350z members. All of them were acting right. When we parked at cherry hill, some more guys came along that didn't ride with the rest of us bike guys. Guess they saw the crowd and wanted to show off. A few had mohawks and stuff.....I doubt they were with us though. I think I was one of 5 that didn't have decorations on my helmet. lol. Don't want to ruin my race replica Arai. lol.
