Well, after having the new motor in the car for a few weeks now, I figure it's time to put 'er on the dyno and see what kind of power the setup is putting down on the pavement. Have an appointment today at noon with a local shop. I'm hoping to get 170 or so. I'm planning to tune the entire setup in a few weeks or so, but I just don't have the time right now to go spend a couple hundred bucks and half a day. We've got too much other crap to take care of pre-wedding. After tuning though, I'd be interested to see if we can hit 190 or somewhere in that area.

Also, today's a big day for many ACC fans like myself. Duke and Carolina play tonight...at coach K's house. Now, I understand that Duke is a top ranked team this year. However, the Heels came on this season with a bunch of damn 18 year old's and they've mopped the floor with the veteran competition on many occasions. Granted, they're highly inconsistent, but right now they're looking strong. I'm not going to sit here and say Carolina's gonna beat the crap out of Duke - I'd be (happily) lucky to get a win tonight. But if the game is even close, I'd still be proud of the team. They've surprised a lot of people this year, but I don't know if they have what it takes to surprise the Dukie's at home.

Also, Thursday I leave for Vegas. I'll be there that night on my own, as the folks I'm meeting won't arrive until the next afternoon. I'll be staying on the strip, but I've only ever been there once, and I've never been there alone. What should I check out Thursay night and Friday? Are there any cool little dives I should check out on the strip? I won't have a car, but I'm not opposed to walking, especially if the drink specials are good. Any tips are appreciated!
