Welcome back Chris. It's good to have you around again. Beer

Sorry to hear about the misfortune in the shop & hope everything else is going alright. BTW, did you ever figure out your rear end mystery? I remember something about both tires locking up on a burnout.... but my memory isn't all there today.

car is parked waiting to be disassembled. i did a burnout contest and they did not put down enough water. my RPMs kept dropping and seemed that the tires were grabbing. i drove the car home and did not hear anything from the rear end. but i took it out a couple weeks later and did a 2 wheel burnout but dont have a posi scratch

im affraid to see whats inside the pumpkin,so i might just put in the 3:42 posi i have in the corner and not worry about it. Thumbs up

Welcome back, bucket head.
Glad to see you are stil sucking air.
That bites the biggie about your stuff getting snatched. I hate to hear that.

I can probably account for my wherabouts when your stuff was getting swiped. Wasn't me.
Does Rago have an alibi?

Most of the continuous BS you speak of was banned when Limey got back,.

Glad to see you around, hasn't been the same without you.
