If I don't finish the car I have all kinds of time!!!!
If you don't finish the car, you'll be spending that time explaining why.
If you have a "pit" you must be bringing the Midget. 
Did you happen to catch Randal Sprecher on NPR's "Wait wait don't tell me"?
A sharp wit.

Randy was on the vanguard of the micro-brewery phenomenon we've experienced in the last 30 years, and Milwaukee is ground zero. Between active young guys and retired talent from Blatz, Schlitz, Pabst and Miller, there's more brewing talent within 50 miles of Beerhaven than in some European countries. And not only is Randy funny and a world class brew master, he's a very sharp businessman. His approach to growth never compromised the quality of his product. He'll be gratified to know that in the middle of a dry salt pan in 90+ degree heat, his product has been requested.
You know, one of these days, I might actually be able to swing this thread back around to a race car.
Let's try it now.
I'm still waiting for the spring cups to show up - Dave at Streets Chassis whipped me up a custom set, and they're off for hardening - may have them back tomorrow.
That would be good, because I took the day off.
I also want to give a huge shout out to the customer service folks at Cometic. I'd ordered up a pair of their steel 3 piece head gaskets. They were advertised at .027, measured up at the fire ring at that, but by the time I put the torque to the studs, they crushed down to .0225.
Not only did they exchange the unused spare gasket – which was all I was really asking for, they sent me a replacement for the one that had been installed. They took care of me, and on a custom cut part no less.
To Kelley Salerno at Cometic – Thanks.
I’m also expecting Cameron Olson from the Graphics Company in Lake Villa to stop by. I’m getting an estimate on a vinyl wrap in lieu of paint. I’d like to get it done before the World of Wheels in February.
And it looks like I’ll finally have to service the snow blower, too. We’ve gone a record 290 consecutive days without a measurable snow fall, but our comeuppance is due here Wednesday evening.
