If I know to bring it all, it comes with a spare engine (some assy required :)). Just needs a new set of heads ($900) and cleanup/assy.Quote:

Just off the phone with Phil's since I already know the 55 will be on RR's so I figure I will bring a big can of whoop for the rustangs. Tears will be shed like the last event at TWS but not for the same reason. Mosty is going to be driving like a nervous Dad on his first trip home from the hospital with "Baby On Board" so the podium is wide open for anyone who wants it. The Joker won't be scared of Little Wayne below in the 70.
Smitty-I may need some transport of stuff from PST, too.
Paging Steve Mulder... your grid spot track is waiting.Quote:

Greg Hughes.

Is Fernandez in the country?
Is Ben's car fixed?
I thought Chuck told me he would be at TWS. I will contact him tonight. Boudy was looking to rent a ride.Quote:

Last year it was somewhere around 4-6pm. Think it was 6?
Mulder said he checked the date but already had a prior family commitment. I think he will be back sometime and bet he makes TWS in the fall. Be good to get Penny back on track, too. Who knows about Fernandez-I can't remember if he said he was here or not. If he is in Texas then he better be there with his car on track. Really need to find a way to get 20 out for CMC.
Frank-start checking all 30 subforums to find out Thursday gate open and closing time.
They're working on finalizing gate times (Thur, Fri, Sat, etc) last I talked with Will yesterday. When I know (or spot it) I'll drop it here too because I like you guys.
(ps - It'll be dropped in the Texas section, not *that* much to wade through).
Al said he would be there.
Complete times will be posted in the Welcome Letter (only ONE place to look :)), but for those chomping at the bit, we have arranged for the following:Quote:

Of course if anyone knows any off duty night shift acclimated LEO's that would like to work the Midnight to 6AM shift, we can have 24 hour access.
Questionable now.
Fired the car this morning for the first time.
Got on the dyno around 1pm and found an external leak of the head gaskets. leaking down from where the block and heads meet on the driver front.
FEL-1074's will be here in the AM, but I don't know if I have time to fix it as I'll be in Tyler Sunday and Softball all day Sat w/ my girls.
Tight motor.... made 245/295 w/ a 35mm plate. Before MSR-C it made 254/307 w/ the same plate.
I'll be there...but I dont know if my car will be lol
Pulled the valve cover and exhaust manifold and some of the head bolts were not 100% tight. Put it back together and it still leaks. It only leaks if it is at or above 210 degrees. Below that it seems to stop.
I have good gaskets on the way, but I don't feel like massing w/ it.
Think I'm gonna chance it and get through TWS and then blow it apart again sometime in may.
LOL bring that can Pranav
I'm dangerously close to hitting the starter button on mine but based on what I've found out about head and block surface finish and cometic gaskets I'm not very confident...
Planning to tackle mine today after this double header. Gonna work all night and knock it out.
Started the car and almost everything looks normal...even drove it up and down the block a couple of times. Its got a pretty bad leak at the passenger side exhaust manifold to Ypipe connection (where it had been leaking before and as a matter of fact near where the ypipe had cracked). Shouldnt be too big a deal to stop at an exhaust shop on Friday morning and have a new section of ypipe made.
