Try the surf fishing you might get into some pompano. Hope your visit is a good one.

I also want to thank John D for all he has done with the site, membership, questions on just about everything gun related, research letters, and etc, etc. This guy doesn't pass the buck, he fixes the problem. We are very fortunate to have him. Thank You.

Thanks to John Davis as well for saying so.

John, I still don't have good pictures of you know what. It is sitting in the garage, all 505 horses. I will get you some shortly.

Awww - shoot...

Thanks Mark..... But, honestly - all the rest of the folks do the "heavy lifting" on the research letters (specifically - YOU!!! ;) ), on the Forum (those who post and have made it theirs & the PGCA Community) and the Board - who I know spends countless hours of volunteering their time to make all this work.... So right back at you, Mark.... Simply,

Thank you.....

On another note - 505 horses you say..??!!! YIKES!!!!! :) :)

Now, back to the beach.... It's warmed up down here (YEA!!!) but Jen (my wife) is looking at me like I'm nuts as I type like a crazy man on my silly iPhone..??!!!

505 ponies is quite impressive! My question is what does it have for torque - "fun to ride factor"? Because that’s the kind of power that counts in real-world riding—pulling away from stop lights, passing a truck at 65 MPH in top gear, and just flat out hauling ass!

A real head turner Mark. Having that much under the hood or in my case my Harley Davidson with more than twice the amount of HP and TQ than stock -- there is a price to pay... replacing rear tires from smoking 'em, clutches, brake pads, etc, etc...

Congrats,

Frank

It's a little known fact that 505 ponies take up two parking spaces at the gun club.
