Morning Tom. Looks like a nice day out there. Today I need to finish tidying up the garage, and find somewhere in the yard to park my small enclosed trailer for the winter. Maybe I'll also work on the go-kart track if there is time.

Lookin good.

Garage is cleaner, but the car still doesn't quite fit. Go kart track is 90% done for this year. A couple of more fallen trees to clean up and we should be complete. I'll try to get a video next weekend if I remember.

Thanks guys. I was real happy that I was able to drive it onto, and back off of the trailer without any real problems. Well...maybe one problem. While trying to back the truck off, I was reminded the inherent problems with body lifted trucks(and a considerably longer truck). Until you put bigger tires on, it's just as low as ever. Caught the transfer case skid plate on the edge of the trailer. Thankfully, Aaron is super strong as was able to lift up the back of the truck, and disaster was averted. Thanks again Aaron, and Ray, for all your help...again. I'm looking forward to getting it going reliably and having it at a GTG soon.

Nice Josiah. We should probably make a GTG first so you have one to bring it too, lol

That would put a deadline on getting it roadworthy. Part of me likes that, part of me doesn't, haha.

Thanks, Andy!
