No worries Carl. The new full time job is to finish this house. I am also going to work on the hot rod and race parts business, hoping to develop it into a full time gig. Meet with some top notch web folk tomorrow.

But also hitting the streets looking at other jobs/opportunities. Lots of stuff out there in this area.

Well, there's a huge oil play just north of you-lots of time off, and good pay!

Need to pick your brain about that as well Buddy

Too close to SpeedWeek to look for a job...  hard to tell your new boss that you need a week off just after you start 

Good luck with the quest Trent
See ya on the salt  8-)

Years ago when I had an over the road semi tractor, I leased to an inter-modal company. I told him "I go  to Bonneville every August"  He said, what will you do if I tell you "you haven't been here long enough"?
I said, "No problem, I'll find new work for my truck when I get back".

Thanks, still on the hunt. Lots of jobs up here.

This year on the salt was a huge epiphany for me. 3 seasons of crewing for Tim 2 of which as crewchief/ chase truck driver got me to the point of knowing what to do. We/I have a system and it works. I could not imagine coming to the salt with a car green and no experience!

As for the car, I am taking a break and reorganizing the shop. It got to be a huge mess. Javier is hanging onto my tranny down in Texas, I need to figure out the shipping to get it out of his hair. Their trip to the salt fell apart so I didn't pick it up then. Thanks for your patience JD! Tom is getting settled up the hill and will be ready to work on the engine this winter. It is nice to have a car buddy so close. Him and my folks are 10 minutes from here.

My father got laid off a few times when I was growing up.  It was tough when he was not working.  Each time the new job he got was better than the old one.  In the end, it was a good thing he was laid off.  It gave him new and better opportunities.

Sneak peek. Here is the completed pattern for my 1st product, a full foot hot rod and racecar peddle. It gets sent to the foundry this week. Thicker than most out there, room for a toe loop to bolt on.

Trent, I can think of a use for one of those

Funny, Ironically the PN for this is the WH-1.........................................wafflehouse and the first product!

Looks pretty good to me Trent!  I really like the lip around the bottom to keep your foot from wandering off.

Don't worry about your tranny  Trent ..  It's in a wood crate in my shop.  Its not in my way.  When ever we find a 'inexpensive' way to get it from the very bottom of Texas to SD it'll be ready to go !
