Traffic was hell. It took me an 2 hours to get to work, a 30 minute drive normally. Some people just do not need to be driving.

Anyone know when Hertford opens up?

well, why don't you just build a complete motor for it all at once so you don't have to keep tearing **** apart. Plus you will end up with the car you want.

Well I guess thats just not me. I like to go back to the drawing board and start from scratch and build another nasty bullet for the bird. I am in the process of doing that now. To me it just seems like money wasted especially if it is ultimately what you don't want to keep in the car. Build it bulletproof so you can add power when you get used to the current power level. That's my way of thinking now. That's just my .02.

I didn't know there was a track in the outer banks. I just moved back to the area, I was gone for 3 years. When I left, the closest tracks were Hertford and Dinwiddie. When did the ob track open up? I'm ready to go racing, any hope they will be open before I go to boot camp on March 3? Anyone in the nuclear program on here?
