    The work load has been crushing this year.

    Although, I must say...last years multiple mechanical problems and near deadly daily driver accident...was worse.

    But perhaps I'm not totally defeated.

    Keep an eye out this summer for a valiant warrior wielding a mighty chariot!

    Too bad we missed ya.
    I'm hoping to hit Monroe for 1/8mi drags a few times this year if you're interested. I'd like to go to Bremerton as well at least once.

    Haven't run any 1/8's yet. My fave is the quarter.

    Bremerton would be a kick. Pricey with the ferry and all, but would be neat.

    Now I just have to chase down what seems like a vacuum leak. Almost stranded today when I brought it out (lots of sputtering and idle won't come back down when the throttle is blipped).

    you guys need to come North. Mission raceway isn't far and it isn't too expensive.
    Best track in the Northwest too!!

    Aye, great track!

    However, you'll remember that some of us had less than desirable accommodations a couple years back.
    Tents offer little protection from the constant trains going by every hour, the incessent owl hoots, and security on quads buzzing around the grounds all night.
    The resulting 129 minutes of sleep don't favor a refreshed driver in the morning.
