Call up the tire shop...can have you a set in a couple days...could probably get the A/C charged too! You have a week. You won't regret it.....so I hear....mini VOI.

 

[Kevan]

ViperPartsOfAmerica.com has tires. In stock. I ordered mine and they showed up at my door 48 hours later.

A/C recharge kit can be had at any auto parts store. Only takes a few minutes (and saves ya tons of money).

 

[CBR-ACR]

7 Days and counting. Forecast looks perfect!

 

[NO HEMI]

LOOKING forward to IT!!!!!!!, GO PRO ready!!!!

And (NEXT PHASE) if you need a room, i booked a 2 bed room , but my brother backed off this week so i have an extra bed.

Hey Kevan, believe me I didn’t forget about the GoPro bracket prototypes and I also didn’t forget about the shoe string, my personal favorite…….

I look forward to seeing you my friend. I recently moved to Charlotte (job transfer) and we have a great group of people in the Carolina’s VCA in which some are planning to attend this TOD weekend for the first time.
We will definitely hook up with you Thursday afternoon and run over to Knox Friday morning together, if I recall its just about an hour from the hotel. I know Ronny from Louisiana will be joining us as well. I hope LOUD from Chicago is in too?

See you soon!
