Hey Chuck,
I've been talking to Michelle for a long time and have never been able to lay an eye on her. But my son has. He see's her every year at PRI and she gives him a hug for me but he keeps it. One of these days I will go back there. Everybody say's it's fantastic.
Y'll have a gooden.

ChuckTMornin' all! Mike, you're right as rain about the racing family. It's one of the great parts of drag racing. That's awesome what they did for you, great stuff.
Floyd, I was so excited about going, I forgot your son goes. I would have said hello. It was fantastic. This year even more so with the warm weather. It was high 60s, so on Saturday, after the show ended, we sat on the sidewalk and watched the load out for a little bit. Tina from Street Outlaws drove her Colorado out, so did a few other cool cars.
You all have a great day! 10 days before Christmas!

J178REDGood Morning DRR burrrr.... 29* last nigh going for a high of 47*, dang hand me that coffee will you!!!!! Well some good news for Tucson, we are back with NHRA ..... well good news for some I Liked that fact we had 2 sanction bodies in AZ. Just wished IHRA would have a better handle when they had the track....
Now with Jim Hughes we should start getting back some car counts.... Over night I had some inquirers on a new promoter whose planning on some big buck races at Tucson , they are not racers themselves and are planning the first race at night in the first week of February....Last year the average night time temps in the low 40s at 8:00pm ( wonder how that's going to work) LOL
Mike, Keep making good progress , happy to hear the good news...
Chuck, Funny for me to say this ( send some of that warm weather down here, will you? )
Fern, hoping your wife is making some positive progress...
Everyone make this a Great day , do something fun...

Camaroracer1258Morning folks. Does anyone's wife have trouble saving money? I swear I can't get it through my wife's thick skull on how to save money. We both do very well for ourselves her being 31 and myself being 29. But for the life of me, she can't save a damn penny and it's hard not to think about finances when I'm around it all the time. Anyone ever have that struggle before?

1320racerthis is a conversation that should have happened before you got married.

Camaroracer1258This is true Ed. I guess I was just a little irritated this morning when posted earlier. It is around the time of Christmas.

Camaroracer1258Oh I like Ed. I have no problems with him at all. Miss his Chevelle.

ChuckTMornin' all, over center day!
J, I'm sending you all some warmth, at our own cost. Looks like winter is going to move in for the weekend, at least in temps. It's been a long time since we were NHRA. I am a big fan and supporter of IHRA, love what they do for the sportsman racer.
Fern, good to hear. I hope your parts go back together good and help you print slips.
1258, I'd chalk some of that up to youth. I did the same thing. Sometimes you learn the hard way. Ever look into a Dave Ramsey class, or other personal finance type class? Pay yourself first, 401k, emergency fund, etc.
Ed, nice to see you stopping in.
You all have a great day!

ferndaleflyerWhirl wind trip----Got new trick of the week ATI trans and had a new hub and rebuild done to the balancer, picked up new slicks, and SAW my new motor going together. Saw new grand baby and riots didn't develop in Baltimore. Got home, checked on Mama and found no change. Got to get some sleep now.....Where you hidin Mike?????
Chuck you ever get that flea motor out of there I am developing a lot of good parts that I don't use anymore

ChuckTMornin' all, TGIF! A week before Christmas... time seems to really blink by in the weeks between Thanksgiving and Christmas.
J, that warm weather came at a price here. We're in the 30s today and tomorrow, which is more normal for December than the 50s. I like snow at Christmas, but it doesn't look like it's happening. Sounds like that was a good party!
Fern, not sure if I knew you were a grandpa again, congrats. If I find another 455 block, we'll talk. I have a Torker for sale if you know anyone looking. Otherwise, I'll keep where I'm at with the SBO junk.
You all have a great weekend!

Ice cream time!

Floyd StaggsMornin Y'all!
Michelle, no, he won't. I don't share my hugs with him so he won't share with me. I'm glad the two of you get to see each other every year, it's almost the same thing. Maybe next year I'll break down and go back. I know I would have a ball.
Y'all have gooden!

Floyd StaggsWhat a way to start the day. I wake up and go to get my coffee and there isn't any. It's supposed to start at 3:00. I figured the timer gave up. Turned it to manual and get my first cup. I am ready for my second cup and just saw the clock on the computer, it's only 2:30. Duh!!!!! I'm going back to bed.
