Default Cecil again

Well got the car back together tonight with a fresh set of rubber and a smaller blower pulley. Ready to head back down and see if I can get a new PB.

My car is still down or I would go. Hopefully I will be back in the next couple of weeks. I'm hoping to make the track rental. Good luck Dan.

I will be working in Flemmington. Unless something crazy happens doubt I will make it. I still need to button up my fuel rails and fire it up tomarrow. Make sure all my squeels are gone before I bolt the blower back on...

Good Luck!!!

We should have but I wouldn't have been able to lift a wrench. I still have stitches in my head, neck, and stomach. Ask John, he installed my line lock while my skinny *** watched....LMAO

I must say he did a helluva job.

Well I was trying to be more like you. Somehow missed 2nd on 3 of 4 passes. Spun really bad out of the hole on the other pass but it did go in 2nd gear with out fighting me. The track was packed and there was 1 big clean up and multiple Honda's being pushed off the track
