Jim, that's GREAT news!!! Better to be safe than sorry...

I just found out Al's transmission has a bad mainshaft and 5/6 gear; apparently the 5/6 gear was wobbling which may have contributed to the shaft, gear, and synchro failure.

Wait, did I say Al's? Sorry, that was my first bad 6 speed. Put the phone down Al, you're still has some fluid in it.

Nice move Glenn. Looks like you laid back from the cluster to get a run onto the stretch. You were back in the gas while they were still brake stompin' each other.

See most of us would have been up there on Dan's bumper and would have not gotten by as a result. Well played.

Does that count as a milestone? I say you call the Keystones instead.

But wouldn't calling them Keystones water down the results?

You have enough time to talk smack, take a few minutes to put that video up. Good thing for you guys I want to go into Hallett with a "relatively clean" record... we'll see what colors the car is for ECR.

No Miss Adrian, that was not a comment about retribution; would you like chocolate, whiskey or jewelry for the next event?

Um... I think she would like you to add 'all of the above' to the list before she decides.

Race 2: Worked my way to 2nd only to overheat and end early.

Nice driving....good job.

Eddie's pretty hard to hold back especially if he is on your tail for more than a lap. I tried like crazy to make my car as wide as I could at Hallett last year and he just kept picking away until I made a mistake. Of course that mistake just had to be on the 2nd last turn of the last lap :(
