    Now I know you are all composing your letters to leave with the milk (uh, brew) and cookies for Santa and many of you have already sat on Santa's lap ( :P ) and told him what you wanted for the race car or racing.....Now it's countdown time to see what you actually got. Just 7 more days........

    So, what did you ask for? What did you get????

    Asked for: Koni struts & Springs

    Got: Koni struts! (Santa came early to my house)

    Still waiting on: Springs... I don't think Santa knows what to buy, so i might need to help out.

    My wife is pretty good on parts for the car, you just need to tell her you are spending $$ to save your new engine that you spent $$$$$$$$$ on.

    The new shop for the car..., and, of course, the okay from the doctor allowing me to race after the surgery.

    Oh, come on now... let&#39;s be reasonable...

    How about a newer, better, shinier, faster, lighter...

    I need a new window net. I think that&#39;s about it. Oh, well, a roof panel that doesn&#39;t resemble a golf ball would be nice too, but I don&#39;t see that happening.

    Golf balls are dimpled to make &#39;em faster and fly farther...we might have to DeeQ you for some "performs an illegal function" stuff.

    (Actually, I never noticed it in Atlanta, so it caouldn&#39;t be THAT bad.)

    Asked for and received:

    MSD Spark Plug wires
    AN fittings for oil cooler installation
    ARP wheel studs
    Dewalt 18v Cordless Drill/Driver

    Since I got everything I asked for this year, I guess I need to get a little more aggressive with the wish list. Maybe as soon as the H&N fiasco gets resolved that will be next on the list! Keep writing those letters!

    Merry Christmas to all!

    Nothing so much directly for the car, but got a new Craftsman Al racing jack, a fancy Longacre digital tire pressure gauge, and best of all, the very first edition PUB Racing logo sweatshirt!!!



    Gonna put in an order for a whole lot more - gotta cover the rest of the crew!

    I actually was strucken speachless this year. Part of my family wish list was a GC to help me buy a H&N. My parents bought me one!!!! I was seriously left speachless yesterday as I never expected that it was only a wish list item. So now I can turn that money I saved towards my season entry fees.

    I got absolutely nothing even remotely usable or referenced to the racing effort or the race car. However, I got all sorts of fancy food things. What were they thinking! Is this a hint!

    \Way cool. Don&#39;t you just love it when the wish list gets real?

    Well, well. Not all good things arrive via the chimney. Just what we asked for.
