    I love C5 RS6s. Still on my "want to own someday" list. I may sell the A6 after I get it back up to snuff pick up either a B7 RS4, C5 RS6, or a nicely sorted stage 3 B5 S4. I'll wait to get another 911 until my kid is old enough to not need a booster seat anymore.

    I haven't hunted around the Othello/Royal City for quite some time. Most of my public land hunting anymore is the Lower Yakima Valley or Quincy were I've picked up a couple birds this year. I go to a club in Ellensburg a lot as hunting public land can be a little trying from time to time.

    Nice, I really like the Scouts. I'm too tall for one, otherwise I'd probably have one in the garage.

    I also build bikes, though they have kinda been put on hold for the time being. Once I get my garage situated a little better I'll probably start another build. I really want to find one of the turbo bikes from the 80s, I think it'd be fun to modernize one of those.

    Here's a couple of my builds:

    That V12 bi_turbo!!!!

    Gut the downpipes to get the turbo spooling sounds (at least that was the trick with the RS6).
    Buddy of mine has the V12 S600 and said it was stupid scary in the wet and ripped thru tires.

    I break shit and fix things for a hobby. At least it seems to have turned into a hobby.

    This was at work though so I got paid to break this.

    The hard part about driving a uber super sedan in the PNW is all the Prius/left lane idjuts.
    No place to stretch the legs (read as triple digits in MPH)

    There has to be desolate stretches of road that you can have your fun and only put yourself at risk, but if Priuses blocking your fun are your concern then I think you're looking in the wrong places. Have your fun but don't put the rest of us at risk. Sincerely, your dad ;)

    Yeah. I guess it had too many trips down a pothole ridden logging road. Mainline was bad the last week or so. They finally put a grader on it and spread fresh gravel.

    A company a used to work for had several dually rim failures in a year. Turned out almost all the trucks were grossly over weight.
