Travis, thanks for doing that. I pretty much stayed around the house and kept my boys entertained. Then we got an unexpected surprise and our neighbor offered to take the boys for the evening and night, so my wife and I went out for dinner and a movie.

I think Alex lives in Eagan, but I'm never in that area except for Sundays when I cruise there to meet other car fans.

We are planning an August meet at my house, so be ready.

I'll be more happy to return the favor.
no problem man , i just hope next time we can do a z meet or somethin or a least uni could be busier lol

Hey guys, I have a Mastergrade TS rear diffuser I might be selling locally. It was given to me to use as a test dummy on my RSX. It is too short to use without side vortex's and too wide with them, so I decided to just sell it. If anyone is interested shoot me a PM, I'll let it go cheap.
