    Greetings...

    I've likely met a bunch of you at Kontinentals events in central Texas. I'm a gearhead and vintage drags artist... Have been at Day of The Drags the past few years and the Lone Star Roundup. I'll be sharing my art work and am glad to finally join y'all...

    More later...

    Welcome. Come out to the Dog and Duck Pub tonight. I am sure there will be plenty of ET/MPH lies from the HAMB Drags.

    Thanks for the "welcome" and the invite... Once I'm unpacked I'll make an effort to get out and socialize...

    Excellent... Some good ball bustin' right off the bat! Part of "unpacking" means heading back to get my ride down here... don't want to show up in my gas saver... that could result in an ass kickin' or at least making a poor first impression. I WILL make it out on a monday before too long.

    Deer Creek Ranch... Off the beaten path a bit - Hamilton Pool / Longhorn Skyway area.

    My ride is a bit newer... '72 Cutlass. Not a deuce but cool in it's own right. I just moved here and still need to get back to Dallas to drive the Cutlass down here. I appreciate the contact and look forward to meeting Y'all before too long.

    I appreciate your communication... As soon as I moved here I had the feeling I had pissed away a lot of time living in Dallas. I'm glad to be here. yep... concentrate mostly on drag racing ... mostly vinatge stuff. I'll post some work at week's end and will fill out my profile in greater depth ASAP.

    the "Big Drip" is a little mom and pop ice cream shop next to the Super S, she throws a tiny car show of sorts every Saturday, maybe we can get all the dripping guys together out there one night. That's makes a bout 10 of us out here...
