    I am moving to the Wilmington area. Probably in mid august. We already have a house and my wife is leaving this week. I'll be a bachelor again for a while

    O.K....I finished up my thrashing tonight at 5pm. It is ready to go.....I think??

    I picked up my car Thursday from the AC guy. He got the Sanden compressor installed and ready to go. I will be anxious to see if it helps with the mpg.

    Tonight, I installed a new stereo and worked on my rear package tray. The package tray "raddles" at high volume and with a lot of bass. I installed a new "jute" package tray insulation, and it helped some....but still "rattles". I guess I will have to live with it. I did turn the bass down so that will help.

    See you in D.C.!!!!

    Dang it!!! I hate it guys but doesn't look like I will make it. I think I sheared a pinion shaft Saturday nite at the track...damn drag radials. Thought I snapped an axle but both axles are still locked and the drive shaft turns pretty freely. Gotta pull it down tonight. Guess I'll put the 4:30's back in till I get these 3:89's fixed. I wanna keep the 3:89's in for the street.
    Oh yeah...I never got off the start line and still won the race. The goober I was racing against broke out and left me in the money. I won $25.00!!! At least it paid for the 3 gallons of gas I put in it at the track. :bananaman
