***The 2007 Texas Mile (Vids/Pics)***

Weekend before last, we took my GTS (Big Red) and Ray's TT-GT to the Texas Mile. It wound up being one hell of a fun time, and I decided to share the story.

Here is the teaser video: http://www.garyjavo.com/videos/2007%...mileteaser.wmv

Gary - Great write up! Sounds like a damn scary time in the slide, glad everything is okay. A real pucker moment. It looks like you guys had a great time all things considered.

that is incredible. I watched the video before reading the synopsis on Gary's site. I like the ending to that story much better after finding out everyone and everything was ok
