Thanks for the compliment

That is correct not that many people here in Manhattan have cars; I actually had 3 cars; but parking them here in the city was getting too expensive.

I also want to get a Stingray series - Corvette sometime next year.

Anyway, hope to finish my mods by the spring; I am so ready to drop my tops:lala:

Cool...

I also noticed you live in Edison. My friend Eric lives in Edison, and my GF lives in S brunswick, right down route 1, like 20 mins from the mall! Im down there all the time but sans car until it gets warmer out!

I've been a Petty fan all my life. I've been devoted to thier family and organization for years. I've met the family on numerous occations, worked with the fine people that make up the shop, donated my time and money to the construction of the Victory Junction Camp, and as well as the Kyle and Richard Petty fan club and thier officers. The Petty family are the most welcoming and generous people still associated with racing today. There's no reconsidering here.

belive me i am not knocking the pettys for there victory junction camp. its just weird to see how richard petty was such an awesome driver and than you look at kyle and think to yourself what happen to him. if i were kyle i would start looking for a friver to replace himself. now his son adam was a good driver. sad to see him go thou.
