    I gota move south, I hate the cold and I love to race!

    Don, I would think that you're right about the motor picking up after breakin and tuning. I'm glad to hear you back running almost as strong as before.

    Good luck, and keep everyone up to date.

    Thats a great start Don...hopefully it will be a good year for us all...track opens here Feb 1 and brackets start 2 weeks later... a month earlier than usual. I havn't had anytime to spend on the plum....Katie's lil' truck is coming along though.
    We are all looking forward to Kentucky too....John has a big bullseye on his back :p
