    Got me a J O B!

    well, as some of you knew at the track event on Monday my company dissolved last week and i was out of work but i was damned if that was going to screw up my racing day! Had an amazing time and ran my tires bald doing it. So i got home, strapped on my snow tires and went to the mattresses. Made some calls to former customers of my last job and drove all over the state stopping by for visits. Yesterday afternoon after a quick meeting i signed some papers and started work today. I was a little worried that this speed bump would disturb my racing this summer. I still might show up with blizzaks for the 24th points series but I'll sure as hell be there to run. No better group of people to run with and I'd ride my bike down there to hang out if it came down to it. See you all then!

    Thanks, good meeting you as well. You drove the wheels off that thing. I thought you were lying after the first session when you said you had a SXT. You hung with the SRT's like a pro. Rock on!

    Thanks buddy, much appreciated! I've been taking lessons from TTMR!

    The AWD and my better tires helped a lot in the corners, but the "big boys" blew me away down that main straight! I don't mind getting passed by them, the sound is awe-inspiring!

    Well. In honor of the tire selection. "Out Cold" I feel would be an appropriate selection. I think I will goto full winter mode complete with 200lbs of gravel for my snow tire runs!
