    What is funny.....NOBODY even had their car running for hours. The manager was even on the phone with the "complainer" as he stated "I hear them now". The manager said back, "I am out here and NONE of the cars are running". We are near the airport.....maybe it was a DC-10 with Flowmasters? :huh:

    You know...there are just some people that absolutely go out of their way to be a d***head! You kinda wish you knew what room he was in so you could go bang on his door at 3am, yell FIRE... and haul ass!!! :cool:

    Funny thing is that the tour guide started yelling my name after I took that picture. I thought it was because I was not allowed to take pictures of the Marine guard so I quickly turned around and sped off on the Segway. Turns out that Segway's are not allowed on the type of sidewalk I was on.
    Definetly a nifty and inovative piece of technology. Maneuvering through the city traffic was easy and we could go up to 9 miles an hour!

    The air and space museum was spectacular and got see my favourite plane, the SR71!
    I also got to ride in Doug's Comet GT and met the club's Brazilian rep, Paul, who has a
    Maverick wagon.

    I have to AGREE!!!!,,,I'm in the motel in Chicago every other night, 4pm till midnite, an some people have really bad motel manners (26 drunks in one room party, kids throwed out of room to run the halls, etc) Well,,, I do know the room number and when I go through Toledo at 4-5am,,, guess who gets a call with worthless muttering!!!! Makes me feel better anyhow!:clap:

    Glad to hear the reports on all the fun times! Wish I had my Mav in Drag done, cause I'd be there! Love them pic's!!
