Back indefinitely and I still have nitrous, but haven't sprayed in a while. The car's seen too much abuse and with nearly 150K miles, I'm afraid she'll throw a fit. I always tell myself, "I'll get around to testing it out," but it hasn't happened yet.

Chris, your right about the Oct.13th AutoX being at TMS instead of MW.

But they were moving the event in Nov.18th to Crandall.

And this is NTAXS ....not BMW group. So I think I mixed them up.

Wow Travis. I didn't realize you were on my level of overtime. Is that with your on-call time or just mon-fri?

If by "screwed" you mean living a comfortable life with plenty of time to spend with family and do fun things then I wish I was "screwed" with a salary job.

Overtime is overrated when it's more than you care for.

Genesis is gone. Just got totaled by an intoxicated driver but three police didn't test him so i guess that's allegedly. I'm in the hospital in Duncanville now. I feel fine but according to the paramedics i should but have walked away from this. Will post pics soon. Car was rolled and roof was crushed.

Z Gods, you have angered them, but they have spared your life to give a second chance to do the right thing.

Glad to hear you made out okay though.
