Well, I'll be raking my lawn in preparation for spring fertilizer but not worrying about getting sunburned... Enjoy your days in the sun!

...Thanks ''Night Train''!...

Yesterday evening, I went with Martin to Palm Beach International Raceway and on the third run he made, the differential went KABOOM!.....So now, he's going to have to find someone to fix it here in South Florida...

Well it wasn't hooking that much...not on that particular run at least...I guess that after more than three years of leaving on the trans-brake, the gears were pretty beat up and sooner or later it was bound to happen...
Martin took the cover off today to check out the damage and he said that at least the third of the ring's teeth were gone!
