Rich,
Thanks for filling in. I normally get up at 4:30 AM and am at work by 6:00 AM. We had the 4th & 5th off. When I got into work this morn. and turned on the computer I was met with the "Blue Screen of Death." I got a new computer and monitor (went from 15" to 19")at about 10:00 AM. However, there is problem with the new computer. Isn't always the case when the IT people work on something. It can't seem to find the location of MS Excel spreadsheet files, even when you give it the right path. Since most of our engineering files (~85%) are XL files this is a big pain. The IT people were stumped but they promised to fix it tonight after work. I wonder what new and exciting things await me from my computer at work tomorrow morn. I went to the meet at Ollies in Lancaster, PA last night. I couldn't stay long. The only way to descibe the scene is that it was "Rice Boy Racer City". There must have been 250-300 cars in tha lot. They were mostly souped up Hondas & Mazdas. When I was young and hot rodding, i could answer quetions on Carters , Holleys and triple duce setups. I guess today's kids are just hot rodding Tokyo iron similar to what we did to Detroit iron. The Dayglow orange Mustang was too over the top for my taste. Also, I prefer my flame jobe to be red, orange & yellow in color not blue & silver. But the kids today have their own tastes. Larry III |

Countdown Continues
Hi all you SVXers out there in SVXland,
It's only 11 days until the Big 10th Anniversary Meet in Lafayette. Now that you've sniffed your ATF, pumped 60 puhzigs in the doughnut, and put your wheels on the right way, I ask you to look in your glove box. Look carefully now. Is the slip of paper where you wrote down your meet number from the Sign-Up List in your glove box ? If not, find out what is your correct number and write it down. Put the slip of paper in the glove box. There may be a surprise quiz on this folks (remember high school). This number is important. It is part of the List Incentive Program (LIP) [Didn't you just know that I would work that in somehow]. To paraphrase a saying from the Chinese laundry in NYC where I used to bring my shirts, "No Slipee - No Prizee". Larry III PS: Thank you Rich for yesterday's "countdown" post.

I forget to mention proper adjustment of progressive linkages on the 3 duece carbs. How sweet it was! See you in about a week plus. Larry III |

Hi all you SVXers out there in SVXland,
Can you believe that it's only 10 days until the Big 10th Anniversary Meet in Lafayette. I guess it's time to slide out the little drawer that is under the front passenger seat and see who or what is in it. Also, take that old cup holder out of the bottom of the center console and polish it up. Larry III |

Hi Larry,
I sent you a PM. I'd like to go to the meet. I wasn't sure before if I could go, but I have decided to try to make it. My car has been giving me headaches and finding all kinds of excuses during these past 3 months. It was asking for a new tranny and wheel bearings, and I took care of them. Such an expense! Everything else is working fine as of now. I'd like to see you guys. I'm still fairly new to this 'Boy's Club'.

Hi all you SVXers out there in SVXland,
Can you believe that it's only 9 days until the Big 10th Anniversary Meet in Lafayette. I just thought of someting. Can the people who have laptops and/or digital cameras bring them to the meet. That we we can access this site and post some pictures for the European & Australian SVXers who can't be in Lafayette. Thanks gang. I'd like to thank Vivian (vzSvx) #119 and Chris (casper150) #158 That brings us back to 165 on the Sign-Up List ( my screw-up). We will have approx. 80 SVXes plus a Buick Grand National and a Citron-Maserati. Does anyone want to come in a Facel-Vega (a really rare car) Will Deron please contact me quickly?

Re: Countdown Continues
My laptop's coming with me, and so is my digital camera (not the greatest one).
However, if I recall correctly, I *think* Patrick mentioned that there was complimentary internet access in one of the main areas. VK Quote:

I'll have my laptop also along with my camera. If people want to bring their USB connectors (and software possibly) we can do a daily download for those who are out of room on the camera.
Now....to go find 60 psi for my dount, clean inside/out, wax, buff, remount tranny cooler, install gauge pod, paint bumper, redo brakes, prepare toolkit, clean underhood, and uhhh oh a few other things and I'll be ready to go. I hope 8 days is enough time
