And about the woman being hard on cars, Nicole said that she is going to "take it easy", but I am sure as soon as she gets a couple of passes under her belt in the car we'll see what the real meaning of "taking it easy" is!

Well, I'm back up and running after a week ( hard drive failure ). My mods for this year are an upgrade to a GTK850, 4 wheel Braer disc, and [hopefully within the next week or so], a cage from Jack and Brian. I'm also building a sub box for a Memphis Audio 12" w/ 400w amp. Going to have to wait on the cage to finish the box, as we built it to fit the spare tire location-----and I know it will have to be altered due to the cage location. This all needs to be done in less than 4 weeks. Eeeeeeeekkkkssss

This summer's projects
Jack and the team are taking care of my Cutlass this season.
I am Putting a turbo diesel in the VW, with a 5 speed. I am going to change out the 327 (racing) in the Blue Impala with a street friendly 327 roller that I had built for the Cutlass. That is going in with a Muncie 4 speed with a new overdrive kit. It then needs a little help with the wiring, so hopefuly I'll straighten that out. I am going to wait on installing the 468 untill the Biscayne is ready, so I still have something to drive to some car shows. We (Pat Musi and I) are having a hard time getting the manifold for the injection. Then it's on to the Biscayne. I have all the items for it already, except the interior. 327 EFI, 5 speed Tremec, with 3.08s. I think that I will have to also do some work on my brother's (Doug) car too. He just bought his first classic car, a 1964 Chevelle wagon. Concrats to Doug, just don't ruin it like your other race cars! Hope every one is well, and doing good. Also hope to see some of you guys at E-town. If I can make it.

I would love to say that we are going, but the motorhome will not be ready in time and it's really tight right now. We were supposed to go to Lebanon Valley dragway for Memorial Day weekend and I don't even think were going to be able to do that. If we go out this year it will most likely be local @ Island Dragway. I really would like to make down to the Buick meet again @ E-Town in October. We had an awesome time last year. Hopefully things pick up at my work by then....

Hey Michael. Hope to be able to get together with you and Nicole this summer. Even if you don't bring the GN, maybe we can still meet at the Valley and help Jack with some tuning ( more like be his pit monkeys ). He always seems to have some customers cars he needs to thrash. Then, there is always the after track dinner.
Mark came up Friday and picked up the GN. It's now in very capable hands, and I know I'll be satistfied. Brian
