I don't know if I ever told this story, I did to the owner, but here goes.

About two years ago I was down at my condo in FL. and made a trip up to Tracey's shop to check it out. It was an interesting visit. It seemed like the guy had ADD because he was all over the place. The true shocker for me, besides the filthy engine build room, was when he showed me GretchenGotGrowl's car and asked if I wanted to drive it. I was like no, that's ok, but he really insisted. He had to go pick up some parts for his catch cans in another town so I got behind the wheel and drove over. The first thing I noticed was all of the smoke rolling out of the car every time I got into the throttle. It was like a Bradley Fighting Vehicle's smoke generator had been turned on and in that system it dumps oil into the engine to create a smoke screen. I mean you could not see, let alone drive, behind this car. His explanation was they had spilled oil in the mufflers. Really? How do you get oil in the mufflers? Needless to say when we got back I thanked him and got the hell out of there.

I mean who let's strangers off the street drive customers cars? Especially ones they are working on that are not done and potentially dangerous on the street. I would post a monkey facepalm picture here but there is not one big enough.

The next day I went to one of my favorite shops in Sarasota, S&S Motorsports, and mentioned my visit to RX. These guys are top notch and build beautiful 1st gen Camaros and other muscle cars. They just laughed because they knew all about Tracey and his outrageous claims. At that point I was done with them.

When I head down in SEP 18-25 this year I am going to make a point to go see Matt and Co. at FSP. Birm, are you going to be around? And as always I will go see S&S. I can't wait to get some beach time on the best beach in America.

That's f*cked up. I'd turn our company lawyer loose on his dumb ass for something like that. Almost speechless.

The drag strip is like sniffing glue, it's cheap, it's a decent buzz, it doesn't last long and they are all the same.
Road racing is like China White Heroin, the buzz is stronger, the high lasts for hours, it's extremely addictive and they are all different.
I can't wait for my next
Track fix.
