    I just got home today and have a lot of work to do to get the car ready. I'll be lucky to have everything done by the first race.

    Casey. Sounds good to me.

    I just need Dave to send me some 2012 stickers and log books and I am good to go.

    Anyone else?

    dang colvin.
    I'll be there barring any mechanical hold-ups.
    correction:
    the address you show is on McPhaul off of Lamar.
    the link shows protech body shop off howard.
    given you posted the addy, i assume the McPhaul address is the correct place?

    i just talked to a fellow at

    he said he's been speaking to Casey. however, he just now mentioned that he has a drop dead time of 11:20. Seems awful limited to me. So, if we have more cars we'll either need to start much earlier or figure a new date. If more than just us three i'm thinking there can be a time crunch esp if anyone needs to adjust to get their numbers dialed in.

    I can be there before 10:00 if they will start early. I will need an extra pull or two to adjust timing.

    Yeah, he called me this morning and said something came up that he has to leave by 11:30. At the time, Morgan and I were the only ones I knew of planning to go so I just said I'd show up at 9:00, get mine done and make sure Morgan had plenty of time. He sounded perfectly willing to start much earlier than 10 though. Sounds like we've got 4 confirmed cars now? I'll call him back tomorrow and see if we can start at 7...

    Yes, Morgan has the right address & phone number above.

    Colvin stopped doing dyno work on Sat. because they don't want to make noise on Sat. mornings that could bother their neighbors. They are right in the middle of the 60's hippie tree hugger area of Austin.

    I don't know if I can even get my car ready in time for the 14th but it does not look like there will be enough time anyway. Looks like four of you without me, so I doubt there are enough hours in his day for all of us.
