It's kind of hard to explain... but I'm a member of a drum and bugle corps called the Santa Clara Vanguard (http://www.scvanguard.org) which is a member of Drum Corps International (http://www.dci.org). It's kind of like a marching band but it's on a higher level and there are no woodwinds, just brass, percussion and colourguard. We travel all over the US competing with other corps, before we all meet up for DCI World Championships, being held in Boston this year.

Santa Clara holds six world championships and is a top four finisher every year. If you go here: http://www.scvanguard.org/vanguard/index.php you'll find videos and pictures from our camps and a copy of our tour schedule.

So I leave on May 27th and I'll be back probably like August 14th.

And no, no one can look after my car while I'm gone!!! :nono:

Holy crappers!! That's really cool!! :nice: [I bet it's great for picking up chicks too!! :D ] It sounds like it will be an amazing experience. Sheesh, I never knew you were a celebrity. :hail2:

What's this??? I put a stock catted h pipe on my POS temporarily and you beat me for the first time in what 7 years.... sheesh some people :P Oh I'll be back ;). Were you gassing it by the way? Or did the cams really help out that much? If so cudos!

That was a dry run Kev,I don't even have the nitrous solenoids in the car at the moment. I also bogged hard off the line,if I'd gotten a decent launch there'd been another car lenth or 2 between us.

The Regina crew was hanging out tonight and of course we had to run the cars a couple times. So we went out to the north quarter and I ran against a stock 05 GT. The first time he didn't hear the horn honks so that kinda screwed up that run. Then a while later we went again, with a person starter and 04 GT score 1, 05 GT no score! :)

Off the line I had him and then in second gear he pulled on me a bit but then as soon as I dropped in into third it was all over! I was have to say I'm really happy with the car. Our skill levels in racing are pretty similar too, so I feel it was a pretty fair representation of the cars.


I raced one too...Mach 1...2 points....2005 GT - 0...lol
He gave me the thumbs up...it was all good...
