I'm sure Briggs and/or pro drive will send that info. _________________ HOTSAUCE170 wrote: I've never gone to Seminole for the amenities/luxury the two reasons I go down there are to kill shit and get fucked up with like minded individuals aka OG'S.

There you go its broken in. Change the oil after the first 10 or so hours probably and then every 50 after that. _________________ 1754 Xtreme 35 GTR Stage 1

You will quickly learn that that is a natural thing with a PD.

Very well done. You teally get a feel, in a VERY small way, of what it must have been like. A very moving experience. Really drives home what America is all about and what it took to keep it that way. We may say it all the time, that we know those things, but this experience is a vivid reminder that with freedom, comes sacrifice. Watch the movie they have too. Cost extra, but well worth it. _________________ Phil Robertson said,"It seems like, to me, a vagina -- as a man -- would be more desirable than a man's anus,"

They seem to keep it pretty damn cold in there, which is nice when it's so damn hot outside, but I'd still bring a light jacket. _________________ Phil Robertson said,"It seems like, to me, a vagina -- as a man -- would be more desirable than a man's anus,"

Heard about a company, Crescent City Charters, at the airport, that offers helicopter tours of New Orleans, etc. I have absolutely no info other than that and I found a number, 504-914-5955. Couldn't find a website. It's something I plan to look into, and I live down here. I believe they said they check out the local marshes, which would be really neat-a duck's eye view _________________ Phil Robertson said,"It seems like, to me, a vagina -- as a man -- would be more desirable than a man's anus,"
