Ladies & Gentlemen, start your engines!
Spring and nice weather is finally here, let’s go cruising!
Time to enjoy what most of us prepare for the other 6 months of the year.
Too bad it has only just arrived in time for $4.00+ a gallon gasoline, but most of us will try to overlook that since the season is short and we enjoy the hobby so much. If you feel like weighing in your opinion on how the price of gas will effect your driving then stop on in to our forums and on-line polls sections and make your opinion heard. http://www.rodandpiston.com/db/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=6030
