Mike-
You seem a bit defensive--didn't mean to ruffle your feathers! In the past, the ford/chevy banter has been in good fun--this doesn't mean you have to get a haircut before the event.
I still look forward to being enlightened when we meet. After all, I will be out there with a four cylinder 150 hp POS and I don't have any ego problems about it; its supposed to be fun for all, even the horsepower OR esthetically challenged of us. I've even seen guys wedge bowties into Porsches--helps them rotate even quicker!
