Chris If you can make it come on down to the Orlando points meet the week before Gainesville National event There is testing both before the event and the day after the points races they open for testing.
Pomona is an awful long haul. If you have to miss one thats the one that hurts the least. I'm going to miss the Bradenton points meet, because my trailer brakes just cost me $1100. And I've got to draw the line somewhere. It's only one race that is 450 miles oneway for me. So if I have to miss one this is the one. I make it to the Gainesville points meet the following week.

Oh..........you aint seen nothing yet. Our tuner/EFI guys took their wives out to a comedy club while we occupied their shop, my dad said, what a waste of money, I asked why, he said we coulda set up lawn chairs and been tonights entertainment. Well...... Be nice....I promised you a seat in this car , if youre not nice it will be sitting in the pit going vrrrrrrooooooooommmm ![]() ![]() ![]() Cheers |

I have to admit that I was one those members that thought you had set your goals unreasonable with the amount of time you had to finish your car and to make it to Pomona.I also have to give you credit for your 100% effort and determinaton to make it to Pomona.Good Luck to you in the future and I am sure your car will turn out great!

Hell, I just did my trailer brakes....and everyting else....where are you, my truck and trailer are mobile.......
Seattle and Topeka were the only ones I wanted to miss....now I have to make one or both. Depending on how were doing.... Im thinking of just renting a place down here for a couple months and run home to load out for a couple month haul and doing as you and others have suggested, I have now about 4 solid offers of "whatever you need from our shop" I MAY, be careful if you offer, I MAY take yall up on that. Cheers Time to listen to hippie music (Richie Havens) and catch a few hours of sleep after I rememorize the DP manual ..... Quote:

When you get back down here, give me another call. Still want to meet your EFI folks. Sorry I was tied up this weekend and sorry for your misfortune. I have no doubt you will be up and running soon. Later |
