Hi Asa,
I doubt I'll be ready. Still working on my house and draining the estrogen. :)

I'm sorry I missed it but it was for a good cause... trying to make SSCC later this year.  Who else is getting ready for an open road race?

My daily driver just went south yesterday and it's looking like it will eat up my SSCC funding.  New clutch, flywheel, timing belt set, water pump and a bunch of gaskets to seal things up.  I worked on it for eight hours today and I'm not even half way there yet.
