Yepper, sounds like fun to me. :-) One of the reasons I got
the Ram was so I could race my Dak at places outside of my AAA towing
range, like Cayuga. :-) Assuming I can keep from blowing up my
engine with a missed shift, it would be fun to show those R/Ts what
we yankees can afford to do since we don't have to pay a 15% tax on
everything along with customs broker fees. ;-)
