Im letting the car sit idle for a good hour..any thoughts or recommendations, please chime in.

Water might had get in through the CAI, it should be ok just let it sit for an hour.

If it's been more than a hour, you can try to start the car, should be fine....

I've let it run... its still running, I put it in each gear and revved it up to about 7k rpm.. damn, Im just kinda worried.

The engine reacted like it was being punched in the gut when I was driving.

Leaving soon to get started with breakfast tacos and beer before the Texas vs OU football game. And if you don't like football, please just shut your trap keyboard - I'm not going to start bashing opera or synchronized speed-walking or whatever $hit you waste your time with that isn't football.

Just kidding, of course, and no offense to Mrs. BC (or anyone else) since I know how much you despise the game

Hook'em Horns!
Texas! Fight!
OU Sucks!

Here's some pics from the State Fair at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas where the game is held every year. We generally go every year, but my wife's best friend decided to get married this weekend

First one is with my lovely wife, Melody, prior to entering the stadium. Second photo is with my best man with our awesome game day shirts (yes, I will be donning it in just a few moments here, and yes, it was extremely hot that day and I sweat... a lot

).

I thought we were friends! I feel so betrayed.

Hint - "Gig 'em!"

Just kidding.

My son is in the Corps at A&M so I had to get that one in.

Of course, I'm pulling for Texas. Sorry to hear you're missing the game for a wedding. Really poor and selfish planning on the bride's part.

See you and ms. pint in a few weeks when the Houston crew does Austin again.
