I was watching the news story today about the farmer who drove his tractor into the river in DC in protest. Said it was full of explosives. Responding police found some very solid cover from which to observe and cover the tractor driver. Cover was in the form of a 1st generation Q45, "t" model judging from the wheels. Apparently Q45's are considered very safe vehicles! :D

Yes, Reverend, it's me. Good to see so many of the "old" folks still here. It's been fun to try to figure out some of the new userID's. Are you in FLA, yet?

Just a Quick Comment on that Story, and BTW it is great to see you again palmer. I've been a bit busy lately. As for the Q, do you think that poilice would finally get the hint and get a Q as a cop car. Just picture it though. Just when you have out run that Acura RL, or sped past a G300, all of a sudden you see these head lights in your rearview and it just gets closer, turns out its a Highway patrol officer in a 93 Q. Poetic Justice, or Tragic Irony, you tell me.

There were stories on the old Yahoo club about drug cops in Atlanta using Q45's they had confiscated. GREAT company car!

More LS430/400 and SC 400 now.......raise the center consoles and see the Motorola control head and microphone......big crome wheels that give us fits.

Guess those DD don't won't plain jane cars vs the ice guys who drive pickups with lots of American flags.

Glenn,

I'm transferring to the University of British Columbia. I'm looking to stay there for a long time. I have a buddy up there who's into grassroots racing, he's gonna help me start up a tuning shop, he'll be running it too.

I'm down for a meet anytime!
