Moxnix, that's very generous of you! :cheers:

John, glad that you are okay! :cheers:

...but I'd really like to wear that shirt on my first run down the salt.

$110

SSS, the check is in the mail (insert joke here).

Mike is out on an all day ride, so I'll call CarQuest in E. Wendover again tomorrow and find out where to send the other shirt.
Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it.

Mr Noonan, you got me! :cheers:

Buddy,

Don't give up now. Just increase your bid very little at a time. You guys are off to the races and there are still 6 days left. LOL. Hasn't Ebay taught you anything, meaning it is the last guy who bids before the deadline who usually gets the prize.

Asking questions is one's only way of getting answers.

The rational person lets verified facts form or modify his opinion.  The ideologue ignores verified facts which don't fit his preconceived opinions.

Haha! I tried to use the 'snipe' program, but it wouldn't work on this site! :-D

Tom, I bid what I could spend- now I better be smart and spend it finishing the build!

John, what the heck?  You made a bid for $150 - and now you've upped it to $160.  Bidding against yourself is fine with me -- but maybe you'll come to your senses and decide to let others get in on the fun.  Or - is this a way to express your happiness with married life?  Whatever reason for the largesse -- thank you very much.

Keep talking to him, Slim.

Maybe he thinks you're bidding!

Jon, I think John may have bumped his head harder than first thought, and the pain meds must be really good and kicking into high gear.  I'm sure when he gets back down on the ground he will bid against other bidders instead of that guy on the keyboard reflecting in his screen  :roll:

No I am fine, I need to send Jon a few bucks for the great site what better than to "raise the bidding".

PS. Don't crash over 270 mph..it really hurts.. :-o
