    I don't know if I should throw in the towel...or thrash around the garage, do some tweaks and then try out a couple more attempts. Was sniffing around the Bremerton site.....July 8 Friday T&T...hhmmmm??????
    I told myself I'd cool off, but when that low et didn't materialize...well, let's just say it stuck in my gall damn, low down, frick'in craw. :banghead: :slap:
    s! ss! sss!

    I'm not sure what they are, but I do know they don't hurt as much if you fall on 'em.

    '72 2d to hold my trailer down with.
    The racing itch has me damn near crawling out of my skin! Last year i had been racing a few times already by this time.
    I was hoping to head up to Mission yesterday, but it rained and I didn't come up with a set of road tires in time anyway.
    grrr!
