Can't wait to see the install complete.

Merc · 11-06-2011, 10:29 PM

Not a whole lot to see. Installing the micro switch will be a b@$%h.

No problem Bud. Like I said Pumpkin is across the street and that's a mod I can easily do there. I will be spending a bunch of time detailing in the next few months, I'll put it to the top of the list. I'll pull both seats out and vacum and us my Adam's carpet cleaner. Not that the carpets are dirty though.

Good to see pumkin is back and the new race car also. Hope testing goes well.

The Boy's left this morning with the transporter.

I fly in next Tuesday night. We believe we will go faster then we have ever gone before and that's all good. Tuff sandbox to be in, last year 56 cars for 32 spots.

Day one of Sockey Salmon canning went well.

Half a dozen out for tomorrow and brew another batch of Nut Brown on Sunday.

No rest for the wicked.

Merc · 11-11-2011, 10:03 PM

Work for the day is all done now.

Time for a couple of cold ones and do it all over again tomorrow.

Merc · 11-12-2011, 01:43 AM

Just had text comunication from the Boy's, Idaho in the snow.

Thing's are still rolling along though.

Merc · 11-15-2011, 01:28 AM

Got good and bad news from the Boy's down south. It appears the the new car does not fit the Big Guy like we thought it would

even though it was measured six ways to Sunday. Tuff deal to drive if your not comfrotable in it, so it looks like our new hired gun tuner and former owner of the car will drive for this event, no one knows that car like He does.

Merc · 11-15-2011, 02:00 PM

Headed out the door to the airport, stopping at the my US shipping address to pick-up my LPE gear set.

Can't wait for the touchy feelly thing on the gear set. Vegas or bust.

Merc · 11-22-2011, 11:11 AM

Got back last night from Vegas gears in tow.

Merc · 11-22-2011, 11:57 AM

We got thrown a last minute curve ball when the former owner could not wheel the car for us at the SCSN #7. We flew in a very accomplised driver from home to wheel it for us, but the time we got him there and comfortable in the car we were behind the eight ball. We ran a 6.48 @ 224 mph which we thought just might get us into the show, but we got knocked back to the 34 spot on the qualifying list, 2nd alternate spot in the last quifying session.

Again the SCSN's set another world record with a 6.43 bump spot for a 32 car field, (58 cars for 32 spots). It just gets faster and faster every year.

Lot of good cars got sent packing.
