Speaking of Dick Trickle and Nascar (thanks Todd)....

For those remotely interested in Nascar based builds, here are 2 PHR articles that have inspired me and informed me along my way.

And the evil twin sister (being a Ford makes it my sister) to my SB2.2 -- found in PHR's Project "Max Effort". Nearly identical (minus the water/meth injection) it is within 1 cubic inch and 5-10 horsepower of mine with a nearly identical powerband as well.

Hey...I got one of those also..

The wife asked me the other night at dinner what was in the big plastic bag that has dust all over it in the back of our garage...Oh I said something like a $8500.00 Visa card gone bad.

Dinner was a little better after the third full glass of wine...

I think the yard and house work is stabilized. Moving on to the car.

I have done a lot of research over the past year on fire suppression systems and finally landed on one. I chose this one for the following reasons:

more nozzles (6) than most (2-4 on average)
2 pull cables (many have just 1)
non toxic
cleans up easily with water (supposedly)
SCCA and FIA approved (standard equipment on Ferrari Challenge cars)

Looks like a smart purchase. I think I'll follow your lead on this one.

Dave, glad to hear things are settling down now. A fire suppression system, you're not messin' around man. Incidentally, I heard Soundgarden's new song tonight, have you heard it?
