Haha Yes she was. The race was great for me until Montoya ran out of gas on the last 1/2 lap! We would have taken 1st and 2nd. Oh well. We still had fun.

Yea those are some pretty spendy injectors.

BTW, what weight of oil do most of you run in the winter? I was going to run a synthetic and a lighter weight but wanted to see what most of you guys do.
Hav fun at Famous Daves. I love their food...

I do run 5W40 year round and change oil every 7500 miles or there about

I went with Rotella synthetic 5W-40. I couldn't tell you if it starts easier in the cold since it is a new truck to me. It did seem to start better when I changed it back in October.

Good evening gents!!! How is everyone tonight?

Just got back from getting everything cleaned up from the parade of lights. We ended up using my truck to pull the float. Luckily it was clean!

Hey Mike! Always nice to add extra power the easy and cheap way!

Evening MN. I'm running Rotella 5w-40 synthetic in my 95 which runs year round. The 97 has Amsoil 15w40 syn. Thinking about putting on a DIY bypass filter on each of them.

Good Troy, just came from a meeting. No class tomorrow but I'll probably just stick around this weekend and catchup on actual schoolwork instead of working back home. Only a three days of class next week before turkey day break. It's almost here already?!?

Sounds like they had a nice float puller!
