I understand. Keep them kiddos interested in racing though. Maybe if enough parents keep their kids interested in stuff like racing, one of these days there won't be any little hoodlums left! If I had kids, I couldn't even afford to race! |

| It is almost impossible for any of us to be there before 5 or 5:30 because we all have to work that day. We are just lucky to get off early enough to get there that early with traffic like it is! |

Well, finally got the transmission out. After a 2 hour battle and a lot of help from John, it finally hit the ground last night about 10:00. A friendly word of advice for you guys, if you put a Deadenbear cased glide in your car. Beat the snot out of the firewall first, you'll be glad you did. I got to wrestle it back in tomorrow! See you guys Sunday! |

LOL....most of the time when people put a glide in with the dedenbear case they cut small holes in the tunnel where you can get a socket on the bellhousing bolts from inside the car. Makes it ALOT easier |

| It's good to hear that it looks like Kennedale will the place again this Sunday. Will be able to get some test -n- tune in at the same time. What time are you planning on getting started. You said that you wouldn't be teching weight, but will the scales be available? Would like to know if I finished the winter somewhere in the ballpark with weight. Thanks. |

yES, WE WILL BE A kENNEDALE FOR A WHILE THIS SUNDAY. But, because of their JR. Dragster program, they will not be holding time trials until 4pm. We will be there from about 2pm till 4pm. And NO, I am sorry the scales will not be there. They are having us do our teching on the spectator side and there just isn't a good level solid place to set the scales up. So, everyone, come on and get your car teched early and be ready for 3 days of racing the 18-19-20th....... I will have schedules for the Ennis weekend with me the 18th. Also, the race on the 18th WILL be a points race. But the race at Ennis will NOT be included in our points run... |
