SPOTTED! I saw you in KILLEEN

A red 8 with a loud exhaust, at the Killeen Utility bldg, downtown. A gray 8 with a air duct on the bumper. There are so many 8s here.

I'll be down there from Abilene this coming weekend. Don't know if I'm bringing the 8 or not yet. Where do you guys meet up? I know a lot of people meet up at the Target.

I haven't gotten the check light yet. I was just down there to visit. I went to the car wash on Rancier and hung out for a little. Pretty dead out, hopefully it will pick back up in the summer.

Hey so that was you pulling in to the Clear creek PX on Fri? Mine has been sitting cause of the weather. Mine is black with the Veilside front lip and Volk GT7 rims. What kind of spoiler is that?
