Dr. Goggles said "Freud and Wayno where-art-thou?" James, look for the P-38 Belly Tank in the back of my pickup at the White Goose Bar.  :cheers: Wayno

James, it was good to meet you.

I'm glad we got to meet but it was kind of a bummer I couldn't seem to find the time to sit and chat when you were around, always something going on.

Have a safe trip home. :)

PS, I think I figured out what the transmission was in the belly tank with "more air" in it than the one discussed here.

I believe it was a Liberty 5 speed 10 solenoids as each actuator needs air in two different directions and 1 for a safety (or at least that's how I read it on their web site, amazing what you find when you are looking for something else.).
Just happy to be here. :-D

This is the worst case of salt fever I have ever seen.
The fellow in the [umm] belly tank was asking for a tow to course #2.

Dr Goggles

I should have known better than have fallen for that one, it was good to meet you Don and  the young fella.

Just had dinner with Freud, Stainless and  the Midget dead tired and starting early AGAIN tmw,leaving for the Rodge Mahal.

I've done 65 interviews,i`ve got lots of writing to do but right now I'm on tablet keyboard that's ultra slow.

Later.

Nice to meet you at the Salt Tal...........I mean Salt Showers! Sharing that IPA was my pleasure. Sitting and listening to Marlo with you was a great time, even with the sand in our eyes! :cheers:

Doc (James),
Great meeting you at Speed Week!! and I really enjoyed your CD, pretty much played it all the way home. (can you wear a CD out???) Great meeting Simon too and the margarita at the starting line was absolutely brilliant!!

We did get the 221 V4FL qualified at 193 and then spun the next morning on the back up run, went to tech for their blessings, went right back to the starting line and re qualified at 196 then ran 193 yesterday morning for the record. Steve Nelson was still smiling when I left!! Truly an epic Speed Week and topped by being able to meet you!!

What a pleasure getting to talk "tank shop" with the GOOD dr G

We are going to explore the racing N words NITROUS & NITRO!

Freud

Australia....the United States of America has fulfilled any obligation we have to Australia when we

let Dr. G step on out land.

Simon is cool and Goggles is ON FIRE.

I think I will remember him whenever I see him.

Freud, I enjoyed having dinner with you at the "2" Club. Dr. Goggles and Simon and Grumm are on their way to my house. Should be fun.  :cheers: Wayno

Dr Goggles

.......still very starved for keyboard time. Chowed down at the Rodge Mahal last night, apricot wood smoked T-Bones, darn good. Couldn't BELIEVE Wayno's bits and pieces.

Tman, we'll talk, Rex , how's your backside after your drive home?

Freud, boy do I ever owe you.

And to the long termers on landracing.com , you all know we had a great understanding with Jack Dolan, he took us under his wing and made us believe that what we were doing was important and that we could could rock it. Well, tomorrow we are going to San Diego and if Jack is well enough I'm going to get to thank him in person, thanks to Freud.


This has been a fairytale.

Speaking of fairy tails - does Simon have that picture of Freud greeting us at the motel?  :wink:

I had the most wonderful, but way too brief, visit with "My" Australian Boys!  It was fantastic getting to meet you in person and it made me a little sad....okay, a little weepy, to have to tell you goodbye! 

Oh yes....CD?  What CD?  How come I didn't get one?  How unfair is that?????  I didn't even make it onto the salt this year it was so crazy busy at Land's End,  but I did get my hugs and kisses!!   :-D 

Have a safe journey home and can't wait to greet you at Land's End when you come back!!

Stay Safe,

Midget, he had the foto but the card dissolved and he lost all of the images.

He should have known better.
