Mornin' all! I need a nap.

1258, aw poor little dude. I hope he isn't too miserable. I like how your dad stays busy.

Fern, you have the same number? I'll text you. Are you using hot sauce? You may have to go with sriracha, get some garlic with the heat.

Mike posted yesterday, got some adjusting to do with Mannie back, but they're working at it.

You all have a great day!

Good evening guys... still at work, working on some reports and setting thing up for tomorrow. Looks like I'll be trying out my new rear disk brake setup at Sunday's team race. First one is Saturday but I'm NOT chasing points. I have 17 team and S/ST races and one or two three day Big Buck events and that should be plenty of racing for me this year, its a hobby not a job...Hahaha

Fern, that cold of yours started a month ago, I hope the doctor did the fix on you. You got me wondering, come on rest and get well will you...

Chuck, I'm with you, I'll be sleeping in Saturday morning till 10:00am , then pack up for Sunday and get back the couch by 2:00pm to sleep and get caught up on a couple "Justified" episodes..... LOL

If I forget to key in Have A Great Weekend....

RED you are one of the few that still believes it's a hobby haha.

Not much for me this weekend, just hanging around the house basically. Maybe some more body work on the wagon making sure it's clean before getting it painted next weekend.

Camaroracer, Sure wish you where here, I have enough left over stuff from painting the Camaro , don't make my mistake I over bought everything. Good Luck how about some photos?

Forgot to say , racers have more sit time , while hobbies have more garage time...Hahaha

Mornin' all! TGIF! Normal winter day feels colder, since it's been pretty mild this winter. I may go work in the cold garage this weekend to get my stuff ready to pull out and taken care of. I guess I'll watch the game Sunday, somewhere. I'm rooting for my pool numbers, the Falcons, and good commercials, in that order.

Nick, good luck this weekend. Let us know how you do. I run points, and I want to do well, but I'm fine with missing days for whatever reasons. I always wanted to catch up with Justified, it's still on the list.

1258, I'm looking forward to how the wagon turns out.

Ice cream time again! You all have a great weekend! Go Falcons!

Spent all day yesterday at DR, tests, etc. Conclusion is sinus infection causing the cough, cough causing pain in back I thought was kidneys......said I will live and gave me something for the nose and some pain pills.....Life is good!.....Piedmont is having a test and tune Sun after noon so I guess I will load it up on the open trailer and go give it a try.....Didn't get your number Chuck and I can't find it here. I'll PM you my new number

Fern , good news on both counts have a great time...

Mornin Y'all!
Chilly out here again today. Rained yesterday and we're supposed to get it again Monday.
Looks like the NHRA pros are knockin 'em dead down at old Firebird in AZ. Some dam good numbers yesterday. I'm waiting for the pro stock numbers from today. Oughta be interesting.
Good luck Fern.
Y'all have a gooden.

Nice, sunny, day in the 60s. Went to Piedmont to test and got in 2 passes before one of those N/T leakers oiled down the place. Guess I am ready. 6.39@106 and 6.40@105.9. The track was working well. Feel better now. Catch you all later

Fern I bet it was great to get back out there.

RED and Chuck, I will post the photos this upcoming weekend when it's done. I'm actually getting some Centerline Telestars soon for the wagon. Swapping a guy tires that I have for the wheels he's selling.

Mornin' all! I hope you all had a good weekend. Good times with friends for me, and helping a buddy swap engines in his Malibu. The Super Bowl was exciting, I'll say that much, even if I didn't like the outcome.

Nick, how did you do yesterday?

Floyd, I saw Leah and Courtney's numbers, didn't catch anything on Pro Stock yet. Anybody lay down some good passes? I hope there is a little more competition this year.

Fern, sounds like you are. I'm glad all was working well. When are you racing next?

You all have a great day!

Mornin Y'all!
Yep, it's raining out here.
Got some pictures of the progress on the truck. Got some bad news too. Rear end housing was so bent it had to be replaced. $$$$$ Hope Marty has plenty of money set aside.

Hey Floyd,
Those pictures remind me of my El Camino days. I did the back-half in my garage putting a set of 32x16x15's under it. I'll bet you will enjoy more meat back there.

I hope so. We went from a 10-5 to a 13-5 wide. Kept them same 29-5 diameter. My boy spoke to the fabricator today and he said he will finish up this weekend. He will get the cage certed first of next week. Marty is paying for the new rear end and the cert so I guess I better dig up a coffee can. I gotta pay for the axles and the spool and the rest of the cage which is just the halo and down bars.

I had a phone interview today with another company. Davita actually. They have a pretty decent size office around me not far. It's for a Supervisor position and sounds like a good company and a lot of growth.

Mornin' all! Warmed up nicely today, mid to high 50s, good thing, because it's raining all day. I don't have to shovel rain, so I'll enjoy the warmth while it lasts. Back to winter tomorrow.

Floyd, looks good! I hope the rear and axles are done in time for the Meet. If you find an extra coffee can, send it east.

1258, those wheels look good, will match the wagon nicely. Good luck with the next steps in the interview process.

You all have a great day!

Chuck, he says it will be done. Marty called in a bunch of favors so the guy busted his butt. Marty helps him out a lot with stuff for the 10-5 cars he builds.

Good Tuesday to all, weekend was a good one! Funny Sunday after racing went out for dinner watching Falcons winning left after halftime , got a little Ice Cream and walk the dog around her favorite digs go home turn the TV on "what the heck" LOL....

Floyd, that's look real good , I like your choice in skins too....

Chuck, Sunday was a great day for racing. Off the trailer went 10.499 with a .019 light next time run 10.511 with a .009 light.First round get a Dragster that runs 7.27 I'm on a 10.53 both our lights in high twenty's .002 apart I kill what I'm hold plus some and go 10.551 He takes way to much stripe and breaks out. Second round I has paired with s S/G car running all out his dial 8.93 mine 10.51 again. His .010 light sealed the deal at the tree , as I was .050 be hide that...hard to win at that point. Saw it, but could not react fast enough to bump down, went another 10.519 and was done... Did a TNT hit trying to go 11.15, that's the adjusted index for S/ST in Tucson. It was the first time shifting on time and shifting on the stop so I thought I would be there taking 3 or 4 hits hunting for it. Went 11.141 first time out so I loaded and went home.

Fern, Sounds like your already to race...

Camaroracer , Wow you have a lot going on, best of luck with the job stuff. Great trade on the wheel deal, paint coming along?

Have a Great Day !!!

Mornin Y'all!
Going to be a nice day today and tomorrow with temperature in the 70's. Rain is forecast for Friday and Saturday. What did you expect? It's Winternationals time. The sportsmanh classes are going to get screwed again. Maybe the wind will come up and clear it up for the boys.
The hay hauler is right on schedule. Axles are due in Tuesday and this will be the first time I've ever heard that a fabricator actually came in on schedule. Now if I could just sell those two pair of 10" wheels and tires I have on racing junk I might be able to pay for this deal.
The wheel tubs came out just awesome.
Y'all have a gooden.

Hey all. Getting some wacky weather this week. Supposed to be low 60s today and then snow tomorrow and about 4-8 inches worth too. Fricking weird.

RED I'll be washing the Malibu tonight to get her cleaned up and make sure she's ready. Give it a couple days to dry up. Saturday is the big day.
