Cool Soapbox. When I was a kid we used to build them and run them down the hill by the Camilla Blvd. bridge. That bridge of course wasn't there at the time. I can't remember the name of the street but you could get some serious speed. It may be a good spot to try it out. I don't know of any other hills in Lafayette.

Edit: There were really no houses there back in the day. Things probably changed since then.

Good call on the emblem :D, we're gonna add some fence post caps to look like some chrome headlights on each side of the hood and a toy emblem would go good on the front.

Sliders hugh, :hhmm: round like exhaust pipes ;)

Got me a Uniden CB and a Firestick Firefly antenna. Anybody know if I need a SWR meter to tune this? If so, anybody in the NO area have one? If I don't need the SWR, anybody know the best / easiest way to tune it? As you can tell I know jack about CB's. I just want to be able to use it out on the trail. Not looking to have long term relationships with truckers on the road. :lol:
