It was funny while it lasted, but I couldn't take getting rivered and out flopped so I quit while I was behind... Hope you had better luck than I do...

After six hours of consistently bad cards, I flopped a nut flush and quads within 30 minutes and I got paid both times.
I t was great meeting you Martin.

Evo doesn't have an AWD dyno? You'd think they would, since the work on so many of them.

No driving impressions?! Wassup Craig? If you meet in calabasas (maybe the commons?) I'll try to see you there. I'm minutes away....

Not too early I like to sleep!

I finally arrived at home. I had to conserve fuel for the trip, as there was only one location where I could purchase suitable gas (110 octane), and my gas guy will not be swapping by drums of 104 for C16 until Monday. Moreover, when I finally got back to LA and was confident that I have enough gas to last me through Monday, the freeways were bumber to bumber. Therefore, I never had an opportunity to open her up.

I will try to get over to Calabasas (EuroSunday) tomorrow -- perhaps I will open her up there for the first time.

You can only run the car on 110 or higher? Is this car a daily driver?

+1, great thread! I kept scrolling, couldn't wait to hear what happened next.

That plane flight scene was like a real-life Seinfeld.

Glad you finally made it back Craig, and that you were dealt some decent cards in the end!

Can't wait to hear how the car drives.
