    This area is not too far from St Louis and there is a group of guys that meet monthly. David Day is from around there, he has a pretty nice car and won Turbo Hot Street at BG this past year.

    I'm in the Ham not too far north Brad knows the way. Ronnie has a good point I have only been here in the communist state for a couple years. Some good guys around here I am told, Brad and DDay I have known a long time. Maybe we need to all meet up before spring somewhere. I would like to put some faces with names myself.

    Welcome just the same. Dave
