Stainless has taken on the job of operating the switches for starting the liner, and Max and I are sitting at the control tower in the chase vehicle. Max is getting antsy waiting for the wind to calm.

Sorry, but the wind has picked up somewhat and that might be what's drivin my Android tethering (sorta like a cellular modem) nuts.  It's been up and down more times than a pump handle.

I guess that'll work, Slim.  It's new to me, so I'll liberate it into the public domain.  :)

okay .... I have returned from tuning duty on Tom's bike ... wish I knew what was doing instead of throwing Subaru at the wall and looking for what sticks ... thanks to Randy (Rchop) I have at least some basic knowledge ...

Impound has a bunch of bikes in different states of teardown ... Aaron Wilson went 194 on the 1650 APG bike ... he is heading to mile 8 for his return run.
