    that's what i meant, you'll be in vegas.
    you can't play the safe bet in vegas, always go for it!

    either way, you fools drink one for me because i'm stuck all the way over here.
    but next year, look out!
    i've got a shiney new credit card, and i'll be there, and i'll at the bar!
    if i'm passed out drunk, simply put your drinks on my tab. :D

    I say fab some wheelwells- that's what I did on my pickup when I hacked the inner wells out. Just take some plastic, some adhesive RTV, and some duct tape you're good to go. Easy, cheap, and effective

    go buy some $20 trailer fenders and tack them into place, they will at least keep the rain from flinging into the front of the car......
