No Don, you're not the only one. I took care of everybody else first , now I'm building new stuff for myself. Finished painting my fleet at 10pm last night. Finishing 3 new chassis's for me today. The my new Retro Pro is pretty wild. I'll try and post pics tonight.

I know i don't count much in this race, but, I gotta say, a lot of you guys are really thrashing to the last minute for the checkpoint. As only a part time racer at best, I really appreciate what you racers do to get ready for this event. It just reminds me of the late 60's when we went NUTS getting ready for our races. To you guys; SALUTE! Race on, and I'll see you there.

Lot's of guys going FAST today!!! 4.0's are CHEAP---LOT'S of 3.9 second Can Am cars!! The track was STUCK thanks to TJ double spraying glue down!! And Debbie turned on "Big Momma" power supply as we were experiencing some severe power fluctuations until then!! She got under the track and dialed the power to 12.8--and it's ROCK solid now through any and all practice sessions!! So GOOD TO GO!! ALL tracks were in use as LOT'S of guys dialing in 1/32 cars along with Coupes for the flat track!! The Kingelman seems to be in great shape--3.8's seem to be the the time to run!! Gonna be BIG FUN TOMORROW!!!! Come on down and check it out!!
