Notice I added a few sponsors at the bottom. I haven't got the deals in concrete yet, but it looks like my mechanic, Chris Moore, from Autobahn Extremist will be there to assist in the Dyno shootout and any dyno tuning that goes on. He's got a customer who can rival Dfastest951, I'm working hard to make sure it is there and running tip top. It will probably help the owner get her there knowing the Doctor will be "IN"!!

If you want more miles, do what I do. I take a **** in my gas tank after every three fill ups. I find it works better than STP and the acidity cleans the injectors. At some stations though, you get this attitude.

I'd be more than happy to put 944Fest cards on waterpumpers, Dan. I'll spread the word to a local buddies as well and maybe I'll get a small group to caravan from my area

"Yep, I don't know squat about html, or java. I haven't got a clue how to make something look good at 1280x760 AND 640x480."
Looks like you did a pretty good job! I simply HATE websites that assume a fixed window size; only mindless minions would use a single maximized window. I've got four windows tiled & staggered with 1" of the underlying window showing on the edge. I just click it to bring that window to the front. I'll drag & drop the list of threads from the Rennlist from one window to the other. Never ever have to hit the back button. Saves a tonne of time, especially at 56k. So... I prefer web designers that make their pages look presentable regardless of the window size. That means minimal usage of the scroll bars, and you should NEVER have to scroll left & right. Only suggest on your page is to get rid of the hard line-breaks on the 2nd text box. Type it up as one long paragraph and let the table size break the line for you. That way, if they have a 1024x768 window, it'll show as 5 lines of text. If 640x480, they'll see 10 lines of text. Simple...

Dan.. I'll do that, I know exactly what you mean. That was my first attempt using frames. I'm one of those mindless types, I always want the "big picture" and minimize all toolbars to show me everything my wandering eyes can get in one big frame. Different strokes I guess.
BTW, I still have that gift Cert from last years event, any chance you would let me add it to the pile for this year's prizes?

My server (adelphia) was down a few times last week, maybe the problem is back.
Thanks for the heads up!
