na, the budget won't allow it.. I'm just glad to have a hawk. Man I have 3 kids, and run a ministry in church plus My wife is a stayat home mother and does a heck of a job.. I might make some change but just my priority won't allow it... Unless you know something I don't.. :lol:

Don't leave people out because of their location to Las Vegas. When I did the Fest in Las Vegas I had cars from FL and TN and a bunch of others that you may not consider.

Good Luck

I would like to go, but we are doing the LA Invasion that weekend with a bunch of friends. I know that a bunch of LV F-bodies will be going to the LA event as well. Good luck with it though and maybe we'll see you in LV in September. :wink:
