Great pics.

I have family in Racine and have been to the Power train plant.
Next time I'm back in the midwest, I'll be be sure to check out the museum.

Great pics Mike, sorry to hear about your bars. Hope their covered by a warranty. Maybe that was contributing to your hand going numb. Glad to hear you got home ok. We do need to get together again, it was a great time.
