Sounds like it's time for a chart plotting productivity vs. telephones and beer.

No time for forum in the last week. Car is not fully done yet, but "done enough to race" for this weekend at Pitt. I'll go back and post a bunch of photos of stuff at a later date.

Better yet, change plans and come here. Peter Zekert has personally guaranteed good weather.

And you will get a ring side seat of a 1.6 kicking Dragos butt.

Don't be fooled, Jim's not even bringing his sharpest knife. Sandbagger. We'll see how he does against Max in his new '99, that should keep him honest.

I think Frank should switch to Gateway, he's clearly bringing the rain with him to all the races he attends!
No desire to go to Gateway. The 99 stands no chance against the 1.6. o.v.e.r.d.o.g.

He's not? Jims car is in classifieds right now.. It is as good as i have, period. We also spent this week removing all but the kitchen sink so I am within 5-10 lbs of "weight"
