That damn traffic on the 605 on the way out F#@$#@D.. 
According to Sirius Traffic, there as an injury accident in the carpool lane with an overturned car. I just hope it wasn't some J@#$SS trying his new drifting moves.
Sat in traffic for about 35 min until Beverly, then back tracked back up to the 60 and across.
Rad, I left you a message letting you know NOT to take the 605.
Still had a fantastic time.. Rick - you definitely keep up with this stuff.

The event was fun, but cold! I guess it pays to have a suite to walk in when it starts getting cold.

My unit ate the cog belt last week, ripped the teeth right off. Jamie at Vortech sent me out another one the next day free of any fees! Good customer service!

Got the bearings replaced in the Jackshaft housing since they went bad at under 5k miles. Also, I replaced all 3 idler pulleys just in case. Thanks to Vortech for overcharging me on the bearings....
