Gary and I have been talking for quite some time about him flying me out to Panama to tune a few cars and we finally made it happen I was only able to tune one of the cars since the other wasn't ready but we had a great time. Gary and his family gave me the VIP treatment and showed me all over Panama so I took lots of pics. I can't wait to get back to Panama, I left Memphis when it was 40*F and it was 95* when I landed there, beautiful country and friendly people.

Slideshow of Panama pics: Image hosting, free photo sharing & video sharing at Photobucket

We had some fun in Gary's car once it was tuned, it's quite easy to roast the tires from a roll in 1st and 2nd gear. I have some video clips to edit and put up on my youtube account when I get time.

Thanks for for bringing me to Panama Gary!
