Time for a bump.

After a hellish month of non-stop work, I'm taking this weekend to clean my own garage.

Word to the wise, don't wait until year 4 to clean out the parts washer. Whollychit I have never seen so much gunk. I accidentally touched my lips when my hands were dirty and my lips are numb. I have know idea what all has grown in there.

That's not funny, if I go, you will never get the wing.
Funny I mention that, it's wrapped up and ready to go, ask Roger why it's still in the shipping department.

So, it now is officially Roger's fault on any delays?

Is this your version of Texas moonshine...or are you trying to corner the market on a new consumable?

been working way too many hrs and weekends. finally taking one off and going to SD for an AX at qualcomm stadium. pretty cool venue for an AX, has hills, plenty of twisties/sweepers/etc. lots of fast competition too.

the old u boat is running very well and doc brown just put on some new mintex AX pads/fluid flush w/super blue and added a 5th belt harness to make it a 5 pt system after giving everything a once over and his blessings.

also just slapped on new mich. sport cups, got a perfect 4 wheel alignment thursday. added some sexy new static cling number graphics, a nice detail/general cleanup all around and we're ready to get FTD just sitting on the trailer, hahaha..

was running some old worn bridgstone S02's/stockish pads w/some real goofy alignments, etc and can't believe the diff w/just a few tweaks/tire change

now if I can lay off the mohitos at the hotel tonight, we might even chase a few of our rivals out of the deep end of the pool, lol

I'm confused? Why does that section of grass require so many lawnmowers.

Been out all day in my new to me 1985...tearing a$$ around some twisty curvies in the Conroe, TX, area. Fuel gauge fixed itself...WTF?? Maybe a vaccum leak or two - idled awfully rough when stone cold. But that's another thread for another time. We're tearing up I-45 tonight. Need a chip, need x-pipes, bigger brakes, and a second job when parts decide not to self-mend anymore...this freaking thing is like a 300 hp gocart!!!
