I am but the forecast doesn`t look good, broke my trans last week and ended up racing my tow vehicle to get the first round appearance points and actually Won first round after my opponent broke out by 16 hundredths so I got 200 points. Put my old trans back in( after a band adjustment and new filter) ran it in on jack stands, drove it around the neighborhood,it felt good, its in the trailer ready to go.

Did you get the motor fixed, or is this a different one?
Hi Matt! Yes this is the motor that broke when you were here. Major cylinder head damage, 2 broke pistons, 2 broke and 14 bent valves, 1 cylinder sleeve, new rings, bearing and lifters. Started it yesterday for the first time!

We will, some where. Was planning to run at Cherokee (11 miles from my house)but they closed the doors this week. Low car counts and fewer spectators means no money to operate. So they closed the track. May go to Bristol, Crossville, London, Ky or English Mountain. I'll make up my mind in the morning. Brian

Test and Tune for us next weekend.......Damn I wish it were tomorrow. Itchin' to test out a few new things on the car. Kicked out the power steering and went to an electric fan, but had to add mufflers for our small track 'cause the bit$#!n' from the neighbors is taking it's toll. A lot of guys aren't even going to run here so the car count will definitely go down. I can see the writing on the wall. Worse part about it is we live on an Island, so a trip to Mission Raceway in BC is a grand for a two day trip.Motels, Ferries , fuel...etc. Seattle's not a lot more, but the drive is a little long. Don't you just love spending money!

it was a typical soup like race day in the swamp. Got rained on hard 2 times. I am pretty happy with the newly rebuilt 604ci although I had hopes of being .1 faster I will say the motor has good manners, starts and runs great with no hiccups. Prints tickets like a zerox machine!! [click on attachment and zoom in to see] I got lucky first round and not so lucky in second. Raced a friend of mine and we went heads up since we were so close. MPH is off in the right lane, more like 149. I will run the IHRA ProAm next weekend then may put the alky carb back on??
