Doing better Gary as you know when they open you up and remove sections of you it takes time to heal. Plus the pain is different too and gets better. Just think it all gets better and when you look back the time that was dragging will be like wow that was short lived.

Get well soon AJ___

They say I can go back to work Oct. 1, so I may as well pull the GN tranny out Saturday. :player:

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

Used my telescoping belly while standing. Otherwise she'd still be in the trailer. No patience, she's out, ready for the rebuilder Monday. I hate to admit, I missed wrenching, I hope that goes away. :player:

No, a customer. I work on a handful of others. That particular one is a TLC in progress.

Actually, I think I finally found a replacement for my 200K '94 Park Ave. Ultra. I'm going to look at it now.

Winding down the 2012 season. Tranny's back in, lost a snap ring in the rear sprag which resulted in a total going over. Had the convertor checked and adjusted. We're running the Foot Brake race at Maple Grove Sat. Thomas is driving so our chances are considerably better. 10K 1st, 2k 2nd means the competition will be fierce. 75$ payout starting 3rd round. The Cecil MAGNA weekend it ran back to back 11.47's. I cut the boost back to get us in the 11.60 slot and keep us legal.
