hey guys, im checking in from my desert location. its been 8 weeks and i have another 8 to go and im back in WA! so far, its been sand and rocks. no rx8's here anywhere LOL! we have some WRX's as government vehicles that cruise around the base. other than that, its been pretty fun. if all goes well, i will be home in mid-july and will be ready for the Mt St Helens run part 2. at least i will have a 5 speed to drive!

im gonna have some cashola to use! i plan on upgrading my pipes for my turbo and a turboback exhaust kit. if my wife lets me, i might do a front mount intercooler or swap out my top mount intercooler. we shall see! i hope to see you guys when i get back.

i tell you what, u guys dont know HOT until u come out here where i am. 106-110 degree heat at 9:30am! talk about insanity! take care and see ya soon!
