Paul, I just knew that you'd be all over me as soon as you saw this Checker post! I would definitely want the automatic model Checker wagon w/at least 5:38's....or does anyone make a 6.19 gearset???? BTW, to land on my house in Paxton, those jumpers would have to be blown off their landing target by almost 35 miles, but here in New England, ANYTHING's possible....the runway that was used for the Orange Dragstrip is still intact.....Keep the hits coming, and best wishes....
