Fern, Floyd, Happy Birthdays to ya both. Next round of drinks on me...

I forgot to mention earlier, We also sold the house we moved out of last year. Have a little breathing room in my wallet now, so the wheels are turning on upgrading the race car next offseason.

I like the thinking ahead of the last sentence!

I'm loaded up and ready to head to CPD tomorrow morning. CCRA race Saturday/Sunday. Private test-n-tune session tomorrow with a handfull of racers that I get to join in. Hopefully I'll confirm that I did ok setting up the clutch this time around, or maybe I'll learn from another mistake... LOL. I'm only entering the Saturday race. Our granddaughter is on stage at church Sunday for her "baby/child dedication", along with a handfull of other kids. Can't miss that. Spent time under the dash of the race car this afternoon, replacing the $300 switch panel. Plastic switch for the lights broke off a few days ago. Just about gotta be a contortionist for this. Next time I'll pull one or both seats, and shifter, so I can get comfy. Wish it woulda happened before I put the transmission back in. Coulda sat in the tranny tunnel and not break a sweat or get lightheaded from being upside down.

Fern, good luck this weekend. Don't worry about the heat,,, yet. Still a couple months to go before it gets bad around here.

Just got home, fed myself and had some fun with the granddaughter. Great race weekend. I'll put details on Brian's racin thread. All in all, had a great weekend with the CCRA crew. I can't make tomorrows race, due to Granddaughter duties. She's on stage at church tomorrow morning for baby/child dedications and I ain't missing that. As far as my racing skills, I still suck, but getting better. Car is great, but has a bug that I need to chase. Doesn't affect 1/8 mile racing, but does affect 1/4 mile.

Fern, hope you took the competition to school at the Farm today. I'm really bummed that I missed the Gear Jammers at CPD and now Farmington. I need to look over their schedule again, but I don't believe there's any more conflicting race dates, so I'm optimistic I'll get to run with them at some point.

Hope all the rest of y'all are doing well and getting quality time doing what y'all enjoy doing out there....

Well I just got home also and it was mostly good except for losing 4th round. I am .024 and he is .004. I run dead on, I think .006, and he gets me .009 at the stripe! Now the good part, I made 6 wide open passes and the car ran the same number every time, slower than I expected but the same. They had a good crowd of racers and spectators. Everyone stay safe.

Mr King I sure hope you don't have to navigate all the mud holes I have to get here. Its been an interesting ride that I hope continues for a lot longer. You younger guys give me inspiration.
