Default Strano Performance is open again--back from my trip

Just a quick note to let you all know that I'm back from my trip to to Georgia and am starting to muddle through the huge backlog of e-mails, messages, orders, and requests for setup help.

Getting though those things will take me a while and I plan on working as long and hard as I can to get back to normal as quickly as possible.

Thank you all for your understanding and patience!

Um.... event filled. Not the best trip I've ever had. The day I arrived in GA was to severe weather, including hail. I didn't get any practice in after 4 months off because of the weather. The car I was driving broke at the end of day 1, we managed to band-aid a fix for day 2 competition (no parts available to fix what broke). It worked, but it was noisy and a little concerning to drive fast. But I won on the event, made it back in on piece.

Damn broke a part and still won, that's when you know you're good. Good to hear things went "mostly" good.

Hey what are those funny little decals in the lower corner of the windshield? Oh right... they're (PA?) inspection stickers. Almost forgot what they look like.

We ain't got none a them veehickle inspeckshuns outta this way.




Sidenote - I've seen it before but I've got to admit, that's a pretty car. I guess I'll have to put Mustang on my short list of potential new cars to buy when I graduate (along with the new Camaro, BMW 135, Solstice coupe and a lightly used C6 ZO6)
