Chassis shop has been taking a long time. Supposed to be ready today. If it's ready in a timely fashion we'll pick it up and go to RSD at GLD. Don't worry, I've got goals. I got married in July and have also been moving... So I have not had a ton of free time to work on stuff.

I'm working on some new comedy material for you Bob since this stuff is not working. I don't want you to flop when you go to Second City.

Hi Curt... when will the Iroc be done so I can put a big red stripe down the side of it?

No worries on that front, my 10.3 was basically an off idle launch. I'm gonna do at least one footbrake pass just to see how high I can footbrake it.
