I watched the race at a friends house. Honestly? We could not get that beast up onto the shelf with just the two of us. The tv must weigh 250 lbs and the shelf is 6 ft. up in the air. Hopefully tonight I get a third person there to help.

Missed this before Mike but it sounds like the project is coming along nicely. I am goin to have buzz over somttime and check it out. What are you looking for as far as the motor goes?

Jay maybe you can get Tom to come help, remeber he said he can do topside work. This sounds like that to me. LOL What did you think of the race? I was hoping Harvick was gonna get Johnson at the end there. If he wouldn't have touched the wall I think he would have got around him. Pretty good race otherwise. At least there were no potholes for them to deal with.

Not mine, but just incase you ever felt like owning a shopping cart full of injectors. I like how they all worked when pulled, kinda like saying it ran when parked 15 years ago.

Not too bad, couple tests this week. Almost recovered after my 21st last week.

Just finished a frozen pizza, thinking of going to bed before midnight once.

That was pretty funny Troy!! No Tom, I don't think you will live that down for a while.

I liked the race but I always root for Johnson to lose. I was hoping Harvik would get him there at the end. Apparently that was not in the script this week though...

Haven't touched the waterpump yet, not really sure if that is where the leak is coming from yet.
