Anybody else turning wrenches?
Anyhow, it sounds like an amazing experience! Congratulations! I'm jealous.
In reply to ransom:
yea, there are 2 or 3 other guys, but there are maaaaany projects going on that he has other people on. There isn't a whole lot that needs to be done to the other cars. The newest one he just got is a roller from Howe that needs to be put together, but other than that, they are good to go.

For the week I was there, it reminded me a lot of Southern California, just missing the mountains and beach. I liked it a lot.
I leave Monday morning for my day trip out there in the Civic. Gonna drop it off for Anti-Stance to balance up and check the alignment for me.
I'm not quite sure what track Bob is going to use for testing. I think there is a local one to Dallas/Ft. Worth.

Hey now, I have some paper gaskets for $1.00. That's pretty cheap

That should be Motorsport Ranch. It's like 45 mins to an hour from Ft. Worth. It's like 2 hours from me on the way to Ft. Worth. Very nice track. Even has houses built there right on one of the big curves that some extremely wealthy car guys own. There's at least one F40 that lives there...
Duke - I'd love to see random snapshots of what you encounter during your employment. That will make it much easier to live vicariously through you!
