Glad you are up and running Dave, I was just at the shop dropping mine off, Jason said it is crazy trying to drive yours even regulally, no traction.

Hope to see you at the show.

Are you running it down the 1/4?
Yeah tell me about it. And it was a very cool day for Sac (60 degrees) and not that great of roads I was on.

I plan to run it down the 1/4 as soon as it's tuned and the clutch has a few more break-in miles.

Jody, that would be excellent if you made it. You are the master builder of this almighty motor after all.

Looks like my Saturday hammertime session didnt sit too well with my motor. Blew a head gasket...

With Jason's dedication to keeping our GoodGuys appointment for this weekend we should be good to go.

It's always something!

GoodGuys or bust!
