    Billyboat ??'s

    I originally had the B&B on my FE, but the drone was so bad, I put Corsa on the GTS, and moved the B&B to my RT/10 (since sold). The B&B on the RT/10 is great, no drone, and terrific sound.

    Towing a Viper

    I have a winch on my open trailer, and have used it on occasion to load a disabled car. I just purchased a v-bridle strap, and plan to use that in the future. It comes with J and R frame hooks, so you would connect it to the frame rails, and then hook it the winch lead. I'll let you know how...

    No problem on guests following you in their car(s). There is no limit on how many guests members can bring, as long as you get the reservation form into me on time so I can get an accurate count, and as long as it does not sell out.

    Traffic cameras

    In Baltimore they'll install a red light camera, and if it's not producing enough revenue, they'll shorten the yellow light time to help their chances. Red light cameras are Ok if used properly, but too many times it becomes all about the money.
