Thought steve downgraded his beast? Or could I just not see your sarcasim Jet?

Nope, kept all the engine/turbo stuff, just swapped out the AEM for a DSMlink and added a bunch of comfort stuff I took out previously like power steering, heat and AC, sound system, etc. Should make more power than before, but weigh an extra 300 or so pounds.

Scheides, Mark, Kevin, and myself are embarking on the cruise bomber-run in about an hour so the itinerary and more details will be posted within a week!

Wow I feel like crap this morning. Hope you like 'hangover scheides' as much as 'party scheides' .......kinda like 'Hawii Barbie' and 'Montezuma's Revenge Ken' LOL

sweet.
That is probably the creepiest analogy in the history of man.

The bomber run was a great success and the official route has been mapped/driven! Now, for a meeting spot on Saturday morning, we will be using the large parking lot of Perkins near the intersection of 694 and White Bear Avenue (south-east corner) at 9:00 AM. We will be embarking on the cruise at 10:00 AM *SHARP*, but you need to arrive at 9:00 AM so we can go over some basic info and pass out the map packets. There is a BP gas station next door. If you need to fill-up at BP or want to grab some breakfast at Perkins please arrive early i.e. before 9. Plan to leave for the cruise will a full stomach and tank of gas. Plan for about 180 miles to LaCrosse and ~350 miles round-trip (we will be taking a different route home). We found no E85 stations along the way until we hit LaCrosse so if you can't get 200 miles from your tank of E85 please bring a 5-gallon can with you just in case! There is a BP station across the street from where we will be eating lunch so no worries for us regular gas burning folk :)

The first post has been updated with this info.

Does anybody have an open shotgun??? I'll drive my gsx if I get the clutch and tune done by then but I really wanna have a seat open if that doesn't work. lmk!

[Kevin 1G Drummer]

The Perkins is on the north east corner of White Bear Ave. and County Rd. D. Just to be a little more specific.

screw you and your no e85 station, guess i have to go buy a few gas cans.
