Sounds like a plan....

You aren't kidding just a wash and wax takes me 4-6 hours on the truck and my arms feel like they are going to fall off the next day. Although I probably go further than most do on a wash and wax.

Thank's I am going with some of the best shooters in the county so I am a little nervous to say the least. The good thing is there are different classes so I won't be shooting against them but I know most of them so there is some pressure.

I will have it back today so that won't be a problem. It's going to be nerves or getting into my head about putting on a decent performance first time out with those guys looking over my shoulder. I am also using a pistol that I don't have much range time with and that's what is worrying me the most right now.

Thats the best way to think when in comp. When I first started racing I had that nervous and want to do good feeling all the time and really fought my way around the track but once I got in my head just to relax and have fun I started getting great finishes and rode the track with ease

If you can't hit the target then why not try to take out what holds the target?.....
