Sheri,

Please get Willie to post the pictures of his twin engined Side Car stream liner.  :cheers:

Usually I do the "whoops" thing when I am racing...

The off-season is when I try to un-whoops everything. :cheers:

Seriously, we were renting a unit to work on the trucks, but decided to retire it, so we built a garage in the backyard, and we are moving the shop as of Feb. 14 into the garage.  That has been keeping us out of trouble lately.

How about working hard enough to afford to race.

Oh man, do you realize how many Big Mac's I have to grill to buy just one LSR tire!!???   :x

(seriously, when I was out of work, I took a job as a breakfast cook at McDonald's.  This was whatever year they started serving breakfast.  Going from being a machinist at McDonnell Douglas to working at McDonald's was not something I ever put on a resume.  Did you know the McDonald's building you see when you walk in is just half the facility?  Storage, classrooms, softdrink equip, walk-in freezer, office, etc, is all in a huge basement under your feet.)

I love McDonalds! Over 14 billion sold.

Do you realize that represents almost 10 pounds of meat?
Well, it used to be Los Angeles . . . 50 miles north of Fresno now.
Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.
It's bigger than life or death! It's RACING.

Well, at least McD's food is easy on the digestive tract.  It doesn't take much work to turn it into poop since it's already 1/2 way there when you start.

The breakfast menu was pretty good though.  I learned to crack 2 eggs at a time without getting shells in the food; a dozen eggs in 6 seconds.  They actually time you during training.

Here's something to do when you're not racing - or wrenching.  It's a universal clock.  See if you can figure it out (not that difficult, but I thought I'd be disingenuous):

     If   you are not racing you better be getting ready to race.  I heard the Duck Commanders say If we are not Duck Hunting we are getting ready to Duck Hunt.  I understand that completely.

Here's something that'll help you feel like you're racing when you're on the way to the grocery store:
