Well our trip has been pretty eventful to say the least. 5 minutes after getting on the freeway we get a speeding ticket. Now we are waiting on the side of the road about 20 miles from St George waiting for the tow truck because we got a flat and no spare

I got an update from Stephen...
2kuickcharger (richard) hit a pot hole and it shattered his rim. They have been stuck at a Big O in St. George since 3am. Nobody in town has another 22" rim. To make matters worse, when they were hoisting his car Big O destroyed his exhaust cutouts. Add all of this to him getting a speeding ticket 5 minutes into the trip...
So there trip to SF is not off to a good start.

Holy crap, that sucks!! You have to watch those cutouts on the lift...mine almost got tore up at a tire shop, remembered at the last minute to tell them and they moved it to a different lift. Really sorry to hear about all the problems! I hope that the rest of the trip goes better... I got an update from Stephen... 2kuickcharger (richard) hit a pot hole and it shattered his rim.

Update: Patrick brought one of Ben's old 20" red rim and tire down to St. George and they continued on their way after spending over 10 hours at Big O's. I got a couple pics from Eddy today at SF and looks like they are enjoying themselves.
They definitely need to be posting pics on here though!!

I'll be posting them on facebook and here. I only took 339 pictures. I forgot to charge my camera, so I was only able to take pictures of half the cars there and I tried to just get group shots of cars in their rows in the end before the battery died.

LOL I am thinking your right or maybe Richard is the devil himself?? ;D After his discussion with my son, his stories about what his H.S. teacher called him, and now his possessed car... Whew, time to load up my squirt gun with some holy water!  |
