different power plant for current car and busting my rear to get the second car down the track next season with a ra5 motor I should have my head examined and I forgot some minor work on dragster. I hope winter is long enough to finish my list.

new motor for the black 70 and ra5 in the new 70 (no paint yet) black car will only have a mild 455 that my fiancé can have fun with and a little faster than the 400 in it right now so I can enjoy driving it again. hasn't been much fun for me with this little motor.

I enjoy watching also but man when she makes a mistake or loses, look out!!! Especially if it was a result of my dialing, advice or if I go a bunch of rounds when she doesn't! But its been fun this past fall taking both cars and racing together.
She has also become a pretty deadly footbraker, but I made the mistake (again) of saying that to be consistently competitive anymore, you need to get use to the brake. That's hasn't gone so well. I wish I never said anything about it....

Give her advice through your friends, not directly, Intimacy later that evening (or the next week) depends on it...

you probably should have kept your mouth closed on that one! she will remind you of that every chance she gets rob. I have some really good drag racing friends and we talk about stuff then they just throw out suggestions when she is around. it keeps me out of trouble and she actually listens to them.

You are not alone brother.

I finally got mine started on November 8th...the day I promised myself I'd be racing at Atco for the BOP day because I missed the YB Nationals because I missed Norwalk again....

I am not fooling with it anymore. The cage needs an 8.50 cert and I need to license but that is it, I will be racing again come spring.
