You realize that the foam will take 30-40 HP of the red rocker?

Hell yeah, I think me and dad are going to make the trip up to the HD museum also, around September 11th-13th. Maybe we will see ya there. Should take a day to get there, so if we leave on the 11th, we should be at the museum on the 12th, and heading home on the 13th. Can't freakin' wait either!!!!
