The only thing we ran out of was time and Linda's Deviled Eggs..

Party broke up at 10:30  Rob and crew pulled out of her a little after 8:00 mst headed  for LA. Sorry that I didn't get to say hello to all be t meet several new folks.  Thanks to all who attended Linda and I sure enjoyed being host.

Had an awesome time at Sparky and Linda's! Met a bunch of super nice people. Learned a lot and shared a lot. Talked race cars, race trucks, and politics. Got to see the lakester and all Sparkys tous. Got a fantastic night sleep. Sparky and Linda are just awesome hosts. Thanks to them and everybody that showed up!

Thanks Sparky for hosting!  Good to meet and talk with some of the LSR folks in Arizona, visit your place and see your lakester as well as Rob's Carbinite streamliner.  It would be fun to do again in a few months and I can host down at my shop in Gilbert if needed.

Thanks for the party and all you and Linda did-I didn't expect the streamliner-that was special, See you at the GNSR.

I have been back from Tx for over a week and I still haven't been able to unload the re-geared "El Mirage" axle---have been under the weather with a flu like bug.  Maybe Sunday I will feel up to it.. May's El M meet will be here sooner than we THINK!

He is excited that if all goes well he will be on the dirt in MAY!!  and I had better get real busy if I want to do the same..

Got close enough on my taxes that I spent most of yesterday in the shop putting things up, moving things out, and in general getting ready for a new season.  I have a bunch of Innovate stuff that I will be installing for the NA data logging. Nothing elaborate--- tps, A/F, Fuel Pressure, and maybe one or two more.
