RE: Latest findings Background

TTI's aren't really thinner and they are ceramic coated. Good quality 
stuff really. My poly isn't as radical as I'd like it to be actually. It 
just suffers from a dingbat wannabe mechanic. It's my adult toy and I 
like to play with it :-)

It'd be great to see you and others at the Geezer Drags, 8-7/9 at MAM. 
Sure is a fun venue IF the weather cooperates.
