Monte, I know Eddie appreciates the help. I think the wheelie bars were what was holding him back before. Eddie just don't tear it up till you get to the finish of this deal, then turn it up and see what it will do. I look forward to meeting you in Memphis, so again, don't tear it up before then. Good luck.

Gotta give the guy credit for sticking with it and going on drag week TWICE! Who else here has done anything like that ( besides Fred? ) - not me . I give him respect for a job well done. Hope he makes the whole week and has a great time. I'm Gumby dammit!
