Unhappy

Well, the meet monster decided to throw everything at me this year
1. Diesel truck and trailer for the SVreX II "went away" due to family commitments on the part of my machinist/truck driver

2. BillStock v4.0 developed a "wandering temp gauge" which I've only been able to trace down to either a bad thermostat or a bad water pump

3. My "mission to Mars" is causing me to work waaaay too many hours, thus being in no shape to work on the overheating issue on BillStock v4.0 when I get home extremely late each night

OT has been gracious enough to promise to collect my "Subaru Swag"....he only asked me to make sure at least two people remind him to do it. So, YT, Harry, ChikeBob (2 + backup) - can you make sure to remind OT?

-Bill (thinking he'll just go home and go to sleep....)

Call your insurance agent and put coverage on the Rex!

Baby it out to Aberdean tonight, and Yt and I can fix it for you!

Young Tom has your seat and harness let him know if you're gonna make it or not so he knows to bring it or not.

Guess you still won't have a chance to have the fastest black svx at the event huh.

It sucks that you won't be making it either Bill.

They should be running soon. So what are the odds on either of the Tom's having tires left on their car's by the end of the day???
