Well,all your Roadwar 151 peoples ought to be either there or real close,since it is now saturday morning here in the states.I truly wish that I would have been able to afford to go from Portland,Oregon, down to Texas,because then my car would have been the only replica to attend both events.

If this event would have been a full year after the first,instead of less then six months,then it might have happened.At least I can claim the 'first'.And at least PART of my car WILL be attending.My genuine Australian police siren has been loaned to a very special car that will be attending.Have fun with it Jake,and scare the crap out of Randy,I STILL owe him.Cheers to all,Bill
