Yes. because I've not done so in a some time . . .

or is it that I love to challenge superiors . . . Mr Mega Moderator.



Seriously, just kidding around.

I need to look at my calendar and see what looks good for next week . . . maybe

So I have been thinking, we should probably get started on planning the meet at our house. I am thinkin that towards the end of March, beginning of April would work. Gives us time to settle in, and everybody else time to go on their respective srping vacations.

So, how about an April Fools Party at the Casa del corazon?

We can reprogram the CPU to turn off the speed limiter pretty easy, right? Don't some of you boyz have the necessary device / interface for that?

Nah, it was in the CLS. It was ripping up thru 140 steady, so I can only imagine it would still climb fairly well up to the speed limiter.

I heard this is a pretty good plan, don't get SBC/ATT, too much even if you don't make a call

Hey Gix! Wassasup?

So where in the area are you?

The Florida tournament was a joke . . so to speak. Our team was clearly the best out there and went in to the game REAL cocky . . and . . . ended up flopping in the 1st round.

They tied the first game, blew out the 2nd team which ended up in the finals and lost on a shoot out . . . the 3rd game the were killing the other team on possession, but could not make a shot to save their lives. They missed 4 one on one shots with the keeper, and one of them they beat the keeper when he came out and still missed . . .

2 weeks later they played in the TXU Winter Fest in Frisco, played up an age group and lost in the semi finals to a team that finished 3rd in Classic II, a real nice showing there . . considering our boys played 5 games in 1 1/2 days and the other team only 2 because of bye . .

a week later went to Austin and lost in the finals 1-0. . . the other team was the #1 ranked team in the nation . . . we had 1 sub as we were without 2 top defenders and our 2nd leading scorer with an injury . . so good game

The younger one . . .well that team is going to need some more work . . . but my son is doing well, thinking about playing forward again so we'll see what happens there . ..


Anyway, I'll send the schedule out . . . but let's try and make a lunch or something . .

Should climb pretty good since the 147mph is a manufacture's set limit and not one of engine, areo or fuel flow issue . . without it's been speculated that 155 or so might be the true limit . .
