Was that sarcasm Billy? Or were you one of the ones sitting in the gas station parking lot?

There was a silver 350Z that drove by us in Alcoa and revved his engine... I misread your post, I thought it was you.

Not sarcasm, for the record.

Hahaha, I can't believe you are admitting to the "little" rev with your Z. Yeah, it was myself and three other S2000's at the Texaco in Robbinsville. You revved and then nearly placed your Z in the adjacent parking lot. Funny stuff!

Dood! What are you saying? Don't make wishes like that! The Dragon is too popular already!

BTW: Anybody else notice how fast that group of bicyclists packed up and left? Sure didn't take them long to realize that they needed to be in a more "scenic" location!
