I'm staying at the Hampton Inn at exit 36 off I-77 and my room is on the floor #3. Now, as you know, the number 3 is big in NASCAR. So, of couse my entire floor is a Dale Earnhardt shrine! I mean the walls, the floor, everything! Here's a couple of pics. Look at the carpet, the wallpaper trim, the pics everywhere, and even the Coke machine. This is Benson's heaven I'd bet......
H***$$$$$ Yeah Robert, Looks like the the gates to heaven to me. I didn't even know were sick.

If you can huck it, huck it. Fly Futaba, JR, Hitec, etc. It sure beats C/L or FF.


Official notice

I, Christopher A. Todd(aka 50%Plane), hereby retire my bad a$$ Snap-A-Saurus hat until I can work up the balls to fly with the world renown RDRC Traveling Circus. Since my hat always makes a statement of what my purpose it, I don't see it fit to sit in a chair and read while wearing a hat meant for huckin. I will have to return to wearing my old hat until the advent of a TX in my hands with the likes of Larry Lewis, Robert Vess, Jay Benson, etc. looking on from a safe distance.


Sincerely,
Christopher A. Todd

Actually, I think it looks pretty good sitting on my shelf, right under my Kaos. Besides, I don't have a closet............




As for the spinners, they were the only thing that the auto parts store here in Goldsboro had for 15's, when I was in the market.(my old ones were in need) When I find what I'm looking for, whether it's rims or hub caps, the spinners will be used elsewhere.

Got a new set of the SD wing bags, really sweet setup. They also come with a prop bag and stab bags. All for less that a set of Walmart plastic spinners.
