9-till the last DTR member gets arrested.

No, no, I gave that crap up, have have recently discovered "drinking beer slowly", and enjoying the taste... I never knew that there was a different way to drink it besides drinking it through a funnel...

Looking forward to getting away. I'm thinking about going the back way heading home just so I can sight see a little. I'm trying to find an old sickle bar mower. I think I need the belt driven model so it will run in the upright position as well as the lowered position.

I'll keep my eye out for an old sicklebar mower in my area this week. All the farmers in our area and including myself have gone to rotary conditioners. We have an old Oliver sicklebar mower in the shed but I'm not wanting to part ways with what is left of my grandfathers equipment. One week boys, I haven't checked the weather yet but one thing is for sure....it will be warmer than earlier this year

Thanks, I've seen a few old equipment /auction yards while traveling to the Occoee on 64/74. I've got a project in mind for my skidsteer so I'll have some fab work to do if I find one.

I'm waiting for my MP-8 to come back from being re-programmed... I'm looking for a nos bottle so I can spray a little in my intake for one of the pulls on the dyno.
Bring the camera and video camera... I need to make sure that I take any incriminating evidence off of it before I go home... like Lary dancing on the tables...

Fixing to go out and complete a little fuel pressure upgrade thing. Got some new (to me) injectors coming the 1st of next week. I hope to put down some decent numbers.
Since last year's event, I've upgraded the transmission so to be sure that will reflect well.

Just this past week I implemented a little tweak that knocked a solid .2 sec off my 1/8th mile times.

Looking forward to it folks.
