I’ve had the transmission out of my truck to replace the output shaft bearing. It’s up and in place, but I have to bolt everything back together again and hook up the driveshaft.

Gears look good and clean Dennis. Now put that in and tear 'em up in that race!

Another year I'm not able to attend. My son graduated high school and my youngest daughter graduated college and we are having a party that weekend. I guess on a good note I won't have to fix anything.........

Kevin, well one of these years we hope you can make it. We’ll be at Sugar Creek the week before, they’re having a T@B teardrop rally.

With all this talk about a drag race and a trans, I'm beginning to wonder if I'm on the Ford truck site. ​​​​​

Maybe I should go. I'm pretty sure I can get the 1/4 mile in under 30 seconds.

Joe, my 1st trip down the track, I think I ran a 21.6. I thought I was flying. There’s so much going on that 1st time you run, you’re so excited. Might have been 62 mph.

I got the truck inspected today and adjusted the clutch free play. I may have to adjust the linkage. I bought gas today, last time I bought gas was 10-4-22 at Truckstock. $3.389. Today $4.969.

We leave for Ohio Monday. Want to drive it a little to check things out.
