This is how Don spent his vacation...

Hmm, I wonder what is causing that?

I am pretty sure Lenny's Daughter was the most enthusiastic SyTyer at the meet.

Renz stealing from a little girl and then breaking another Typhoon.

btw, The hotel rooms were very nice! I'm not kidding. I stay at a lot of hotels around the state (mostly 2-star) and this one was clean, comfortable, did NOT smell like the typical motel, and the towels were right out of the Ritz-Carlton (helped absorb rainwater off the truck Sunday morning! :lol: ) I slept like a baby...although not the baby on our floor who woke up WAILING at 5:30 am.

The local truck 'meet' in the Hotel Parking lot

Their was 3 or 4 of us around watching Eric working on his Ty, near this truck. The guy got out of the truck and came over asking questions what were we doing. I think they were freaked out we were looking over at them for the 2nd day in a row. He intially didn't get the trucks. He told us about a co workers GTO with a SC and asking if Eric truck was supercharged. At some point some one in the group mentioned 'Syclone & Typhoon' and he told his story, it went some like this...

"Is that what these are? 10 years ago I had this 318 Dodge Truck that I thought was pretty fast. I pulled up to a Syclone and I got my ass whipped by that truck. The God Damn thing has a Hot Tub in the back"

:lol:
