| We are having the All Harley Drags here this weekend so a few came over to the dealer and set up today. Went down there this evening. The first one is running and when he cracked it open there was a definite concussion on my chest and it blew my hat off.  The white one is 1000 horse power and runs low 6's and 215 MPH in the 1/4. |

| Marc when I first saw the nitro I was thinking about the spray or the pill us old guys pack around just in case the heart gets a little jumpy what with us riding geezer glides and all. That and the fact that Harley riders are getting older I thought it was a good fit. That nitro looks like fun. I tried the other stuff and I'm in no hurry to go back. |

The chest pain didn't go away and I had an instant headache..boom!!! right now. My dad carries some around, he's almost 80. I don't really like the stuff but if you gotta use it you gotta use it....but I'm not there yet. |

| Glad to hear that Bob, I'm thinking Sturgis again next year. We really liked the fish hatchery campround when we road through it last year. I can really see why you liked it. Glad you are OK, had me worried. |
