Monday morning. Weather has been beautiful here the past few days. All I do is work but seems like not much gets done. Got to get some help. Sprayed weed killer for 1/2 a day yesterday. Still got limbs down in front yard. Tried to figure out fuel pump-guage-whatever problem with no success. Part came for 4 wheeler Sat but looks like wrong part so thats on hold. I got a lot of junk race car parts that got to go. They keep piling up. BUT, life is good. Everyone be safe.

Fern,
What is your 4 wheeler? My neighbors have some. One of the is a Can am and the other is a Polaris.
Both of them high dollar.

It’s an old Honda 350. Us poor people only have old stuff. a Honda will last forever and I don’t need to impress anyone.

y neighbors is a 4 seater and he takes his family out in it.

Only 65 here today. Getting ready to load up the RV and head for Pigeon Forge, TN Monday and see how Dolly is doing. First time trying since the main road between NC and TN was washed out by the hurricane. Seems like a lot of work to get ready.

At Piedmont last night a new track record was set, 3.600 in the 1/8. Saw one pass where both cars went 3.62 side by side. Pretty impressive....

Life is good

Happy Friday... Managed to get a bit of cleaning up under the back end of the car a couple days ago. Planned on going through the brakes today, but ended up running all over town taking care of stuff and getting irate over traffic. I'm pretty accustomed to the idiocy on our local roads, but today was far worse than it should be. I understand the speed limit is supposed to be the actual "limit", but 10 under pretty much everywhere I went today is aggravating as hell.

Should get a good bit of time to work on the car tomorrow. Gonna rain all day, so I won't have yardwork to get in the way. Haven't talked myself into flushing the brake fluid, but thinking it may be a good idea. Would hate to have a problem at 100+. Experts say it absorbs water over time. Pulling spark plugs to run a borescope inside, check valvetrain, then can prime and fire it up. Only been 20'ish months since I've heard it run. Really looking forward to it.

Hope all is well with you on the Left coast Floyd.

Fern, say hi to Dolly for us. We have our granddaughter on her book mailing list. She's an amazing lady. Was talking to a friend this morning about our last trip to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg in 2018. Had hoped to do it again this year. Looking like that's gonna be next year instead.

Y'all all have a great weekend.

We got here. 50 mi of single lane road & 25 - 30 mph on I-40..I have never seen such devastation. NEVER! Flooding is no joke. Uneventful trip otherwise. Got hooked up in campground a drivers side won’t go out. Worry about it later. Drive around some last night and a lot has changed. More later.

Happy Tuesday y'all. Fern, glad to hear the trip went well. Hope y'all have a good stay out there.

Got a good bit done over the weekend and getting closer firing up the hot rod. Probably going to do that later this week. Decided I didn't want a shop full of heavy exhaust. I'm putting together an exhaust system to run from the collectors, to exit under the bay doors since the only fan in the shop right now is the HVAC. Educating myself on the crank trigger set up as well. Not 100% sure where the timing is set right now, but think it may be a wee bit advanced. Had the distributor out to prime the pump. Marked everything to make it easy to go together as it was and as best I can tell, timing is way too advanced. Before I start moving anything around, gonna re-read the literature I have for it and maybe ask for some tech help from folks who know more than me.

Got a good race happening this weekend at CPD. Regular bracket program, heads up classes, index classes, and Classic Gear Jammers race. Gonna be busy there. I'll be there watching Saturday.

Y'all have a great week.

BTW send me a pm. I can help you with crank trigger. Just rode around today and went to Comedy Barn tonight. Good show for sure. Saw, didn’t go, Buckies. BIG! Got some RV stuff at Camping World, another rip off joint but they have the stuff. More later

Sounds like you guys are staying busy. Glad you guys are enjoying life, that's a good thing.

Fern, keep on being Fern; it's working for you!

Hope all is with everyone!
