Chris just woke up. LOL She took a nap when we got home. She really enjoyed the weekend. She said it's nice that the guys do the cooking for the whole weekend, and she just sits back and relaxes. My problem is that she listens to what the guys says about which mods they did and want to do. Then she asks me on the cost on it, and what I want to do. And I'm scared to tell her.

I have a lot of chicken left over. When I got home, I picked up some green & red peppers, onions, and some cherry tomatoes, and made shish kabobs out of the extra chicken. I should have done that for dinner Saturday evening. Hind sight is 20/20! Next time, or I'll just bring them pre-made.

And yea, there are some things that you just can't say about the mods, such as costs!!! :D

And I got sucked in to the King 2.5.... thanks to Mike and especially Peter! LOL!

Dominic, I'm happy to hear you had a great time! And it was a pleasure to meet you! I'm also happy to hear you got home ok, but too bad you left early.

Definitely do it again next time!

I'm going to apologize for how broken up this video is. My wife was trying to shoot video on more than one device at a time and kept switching back and forth.

These are over by Lake Christy. First off we have Peter coming down.

You are welcome! Some of your videos are sideways? Can you edit them?

My videos ... I forgot to hit the Publish button at YouTube! Try again. Some of them may not be complete since I started them too late. They should be done soon.

I ordered the 7100's from George last week, but I haven't received them yet. But after this trip talking to the aggressive drivers (I won't mention any names, Peter), I think I need the Kings 2.5, because I drive like him! I'll have to talk to George to see what I can do to swap them.

The only thing I'm worried is if I want the performance version with the towers and somehow keep my stock air box.....
