Floyd StaggsMornin Y'all!
Everybody must be taking advantage of it being Sat. and sleeping in. I'm a creature of habit and wake up everyday @ 4:00.
Hey Mouse, do you need a motor? My brother builds hot rods up in Oregon and has a friend that has gotten into a tight spot and needs some cash. He has 2 GM crate motors, 502 ramjet complete with electronics and a 572 720 hp complete, both still in the crates from GM, $15K.
Everybody have a gooden!

Guy M. PriceJust had to tell someone this story? Mike, can you smell me all the way back there? I had to run over to Ace Hardware the other day and pick up a few machine screws. Made my purchase, left store, got in my Trailblazer and backed out and was getting back on the main road in the strip mall I was in and met this young black girl in a car waving her hand! Figured she was lost and wondering where a business was located or something so I stopped and she said: "Would you be interested in some name brand cologne? We gotta lot of it we are selling at low prices!" I kinda laughed and said "No" and drove on! After I left I smelled under both arm pits and never noticed any strange scent so was wondering why she asked me?
Do I really smell that bad? Made me wonder if cologne was all she was tryin' to peddle! Couldn't use that either! She needs to be more selective in choosing her potential clients! I'll bet Floyd woulda bought a bottle or two!
You all have a "sweet smellin'" weekend!

Floyd StaggsGet her phone number, Guy.

Guy M. PriceI will if I run on to her again just for you Floyd!. We should be in Ennis at the Division 4 ET Finals Floyd! Take a look at that post and see racing live! Density altitude is 530'!
We would be flyin' high! I would need a S/G license and a diaper on car instead of me down there! Pretty neat view!

Floyd StaggsMornin Y'all!
I need to get motivated somehow to do something other than couch potato. Maybe I'm just cathing up from being gone for 5 days last weekend. Yep, that's it! I got behind on my naps.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Everybody have a gooden.

By the way, check out the video I attached. Somebody took it at a race a couple of weeks ago and posted it on you tube.

7820SPDragging the GTO out of the trailer today to clean it up before going to Barona next Sunday. Cold and overcast so far today...supposed to warm up to 70 this afternoon.
My truck had a problem, the accelerator pedal position sensor failed. When it would fail the engine would go to an idle and when you pressed the pedal the engine would not increase in RPM. I managed to get it home and called Dodge...$550.00 plus tax for the part not including labor. Got on a Cummins Diesel site and found a aftermarket piece for $160.00 shipped to my door. Happy guy..truck running great. Thank goodness it did not happen on the way home from Phoenix.

Floyd StaggsGuy, I ran a shut off 10:97 in the first run of the gambler and broke out. I don't know what the deal was with the starter, I've ran a pickup for the last 15 years and have never had anybody tell me to put it up. Mike Rice said I could run it however I wanted so I had it down for the rest of the weekend. As soon as I get a bed cover I can leave the poor mans wing up and make that starter happy.

October 11, 2009, 12:34 PM
Guy M. PriceFloyd, go to the post on the Division 4 ET Finals and they have a live cam and see how they race down in Ennis, Texas where altitude is 512'! Classes are wierd, no blinders on tree, all 1/8th mile racing! Don't think that would be much an advantage to running in the finals at Pomona!

MouseMorning everyone.
Got around a little late, then went to church.
My wife is wanting to do yard work this afternoon, but i'm not real crazy about the idea so far. It's cloudy and 48 degrees right now. Not my kind of grass mowing conditions. She'll probably end up getting her way though.
Y'all have a good one.
See ya.

MsFurrI'm with you Mouse, we've been doing that kinda thing all weekend! We got a $1500 8x12 Lifetime storage bldg that had been reduced to $250 sev months back and decided to put it together...got the floor, walls & windows up then realized we were missing the roof trusses! lol Yes, we were reading the instructions but Rick had the floor & corners up by the time I printed the missing instructions so we skipped the #1. Make sure you have all these parts. I'll order them tom.
Wake up Mike! I've actually been the opposite the last few days, Rick & I are doing Atkins and I felt like crap the first few days but am full of energy now...never tried it before but I'm now hungry at all & am eating all my fav foods so we'll see...
You've got to be kidding me Floyd, put the tailgate UP?!?!?


what was the logic there?
Hope you all have a great rest of your Sunday
msf~

for all & missin Bowtie
