    Kevin is new. He replaces Jeremy, who has moved up the ladder, I think.

    He's right..we're taking a month or two to do some big picture housecleaning and stabilizing of our foundation.

    ITB is needing lots of attention, and some cars need lots of weight. Torque is a big issue, we're figuring out how to slap them with some major poundage.

    Refresh my memory, Andy - didn't we decide that the Audi engine is basically 5\4ths of a Golf engine, so we were going to multiply the current GTI weight by 1.25 to get the Coupe's new race weight...? 29XX or something like that, right?

    I get so drunk for the ITAC conference calls, I can barely remember what we do each month.

    ----and I suppose that since Greg's Swift Suzuki is half the displacement of the Audis that it will be assigned a weight of 14xx lbs? Yes, yes, I would like another malt beverage!

    It's so nice to have the ITAC calls sponsored by Sam Adams!
