Damn Guys....Ya just don't get to do this very often! And I've thoroughly enjoyed almost every minute of it. For sure, there ain't enough time left to do it again, but I'm gonna keep workin' on it!

Congratulations. And thanks for sharing your knowledge. I would be lost without the V8 Club and this forum, where I sit at the feet of masters and learn.
