I read it the same way at first. So compared to that alternative, it's really not so bad! |

TimT has been a non-club member and inspiration to all of us. Today, April 1, 2006, he rolled his race car. I've decided that we should all do what we can, so please send checks, cash, or PayPal - whatever you can manage - to me at your earliest convenience. Together, I'm sure we can all make a huge difference..... |

Umm the car didnt roll over at the track, I rolled it out of the trailer and...
fuel pump failed, cant get one we need anywhere around Atlanta, so we replumb the fuel system and get the car running again, lose a coil, easy autozone has the GM twin tower coils we use..lose one of the injector drives on the ECU. We left the spare brain in NY.... No Haltechs to be had at the track We made stupid mistakes because we rushed to get ready for this race.... |
