    Anyone want some free 225/50/14 Hankooks? They were from Joe D. about 2 years old, and supposedly about 6 heat cycles. They were on some wheels I bought from him. There are 6 of them. I would be able to bring them to the NARRC Offs.

    Looks like the tires are spoken for, unless someone can make me a better deal than Stephen Blethen....I get naming rights on the baby!

    Good to see that the weather looks like it will be nice this weekend ...

    ...after going out and getting a nice 10x20 tarp set-up. (Dutch luck strikes again)

    As of today, cool temps with sun for the weekend...of course, this is the Northeast and we could get snow tomorrow..

    If it's a boy, I'm thinking "Hans Stuck Blethen"
    If it's a girl, I'll go with "Stephanie Van Why Funk Blethen"

    LOL!!

    Got an update from Matt and he told me I'm driving him CRAZY. LOL The wiring harness fell off and rubbed against the tire, uggg. Wiring harness from Honda new, $750. Salvage yard has one, won't ship it because people have canceled their credit cards and they've gotten screwed in the past. Swapping it would be a major PITA anyway. Matt is going to put the puzzle back together. I owe him big time. Dropped car off Fri evening, found out by Mon morning. Could have easily screwed me on the cost, and instead is absolutely more than fair. Here's my Kessler Engineering plug (only for cars not in ITB of course)!!

    OMG!!! Matt just posted a pic on Facebook of the harness mess and....he's going to really, really, really hate me! Oh man.

    After seeing how you "installed" wires on your trailer, I can see why Matt is annoyed. Your middle name is Lucas, isn't it? You just have no respect for electricity.

    Nope, totally unrelated. These are the factory wires running in a loom from the engine bay to the ECU. There just happen to be a zillion wires that need to be reconnected. Don't think he trusts my rewiring skilz. Okay, so not toally unrelated just preventative Dave damage control.

    The schools out in June of 2009 I had a 1:00.747 which was the track record as it was in the race. Don't know if it's been surpassed in a race yet but don't think so. Need the right conditions like a few weeks ago I did 1:00.25 a few times at a practice session. Sorry about the wrong numbers! Just dream'n. Should be cool and sunny though this weekend!!!!

    Andy,
    We've got a fun Miata race at the Drivers Club at Limerock on October 22nd. Can you rent two cars for myself and my team mate?
    We've got Elivan and Ian driving so we want FAST ones to take it to 'em! Let me know and I'll call you or Nick.
