Given my personal history with the car underneath that truck, that's the one I want to win.

The parking lot build team is working on re-plumbing the fuel system to get a full power run in before 4:00.

Man, every time one of these comes around I'm envious that I'm not able to participate. There have to be some (any!) folks in the Phoenix area who would be interested in playing along, right?

And that is a wrap on autocross, unfortunately the parking lot build did not make another run. Drag racing starts at 6:00.

Make sure you have rusty bolt removal, that becomes broken bolt extraction!

I learned today that Kirley seats make extremely good nap chairs and the Baja is a riot in the backseat.

I'm imagining Michael, Stampie, and Rob in the Baja backseat. But perhaps you meant something else?

I'm still opposed to non $2000 cars being eligible for the big prizes like overall drag time and whatever it brings this year
