The trailer is loaded (mostly) and I'm relatively confident that the redneck-truck will be able to make the trip all of the way to CMP again. I can't wait to see you guys there. Come see me before the start if you're man (grumpy, old or other) enough to place a wager (aka donation to Jimmy V) that your pitiful American or Japanese made (possibly cheater) crapcan will finish Sunday with more laps than Dieter.

Gauntlent thrown -

With the exception of Bernie, who used to use them as driving gloves, how many of you knew what a gauntlet looked like? :stick:

Let's see how 'grumpy' I can make him. :D

If you think we are cheating, just say so. I assure you we are not. Good luck with that i motor in judging.

Challenge accepted.

I believe that was some O'Connell's smack talk. No real implication of skullduggery.

.... and I wasn't targeted specifically at "Japanese" with the comment either. I sense that I hit close to a nerve, is there something you're not telling us? /smack

Fair enough, I'll admit I was a bit grumpy this morning. I got 2 kids TRYING like hell to get every which way of sick they can.

i must say the Magnum PU car is truly a $500 POS. that being said, all of the gauges, switches, neon, labels, fans, coolers, etc are certainly intellectual skullduggery. :roll:

please remember Ryan we got Jay's A-OK go ahead for the engine swap. documented and all legal. we were given a much lower Residual Value than normal after the last race.

but given what a moody bastard he is known to be, all that might be for nothing. :shock:

Can't say I disagree with ya. You guys got a bit hosed last Spring. I think we get off lighter due to the B series motors not holding up well to Lemons, same with Bernie's SBC. Both are quite baffling
