I just wanted to thank you for helping me with the truck yesterday... finally got done washing it last night around 8pm...took her for a quick ride to the car show last night...all is well... no more exhaust leak...no VEC issue at present.

Amazing how "on" that frickin lugnut is :mad: Was really great to be able to take an easy ride in the truck last night... she has been sitting since our GTG in Feb.

As always it is a pleasure to see everyone, and I am looking forward to seeing everyone in April.

Instead of getting the shoulder done on the 12th... I will be going in this coming Thursday...thank God...I'm over it....and it will give me a bit more "distance" between surgery and the GTG... so I will be better for the GTG.:rock:

Had the pleasure of hooking up with Joe (BigblackQC) last night... he crashed here after an all day meeting with the company....it was great to see him...

Love the Vette Joe....safe travels.

Ken, what are you doing to your nuts?!
 
Never got it to the tire shop... will be a project for later on this week... :dontknow: maybe... Dawn is doing for shit, and I have been moved up with the surgery to this Thursday...so it may be on there for a while.:dontknow:
Family get's in tomorrow to help around here....go from there. I get to pick up "The beater" today. Going to be an interesting week.

Thanks again gang for the help with the truck... nice not having the exhaust leak.:rock:
 
Ken, first off good luck with your surgery this Thursday.

And what's up with Dawn? Last you mentioned she was doing better.

Damn Ken I guess I don't need to ask where the exhaust leak was coming from! Glad you got her all sorted out! How does the tune feel now? Wish I hadn't have had to work Sat a.m. I look forward to seeing you all on the 21st! Rock on!

The truck runs good Chad... pulled some plugs...they were perfect.
Didn't lean hard on it yet.... just love listening to her run... love going under the overpasses... get a little "feedback" ...was getting her over 3K ...checking the Methanol Program.... no lit LED... so I am either not spraying... LED is out and I am spraying... loose connection..ect... ect...:dontknow:
Need new shoes on the truck though...;) :burnout: :burnout:
No working on the truck for me in the interim... I get cut Thursday. we will see how this goes... I bet I'm back to work before the Mrs's :(
I think were almost "there" here. Dawn is doing for shit... We have a consult tomorrow at 07:45 with the MD... I/we have had enough of this:mad:
She could have done nothing for the past two months and been this far.:(
Still bruised up... I can't believe a bruise can be there that long... unreal.

Tomorrow will be an interesting morning... I got a list.:mad:

Sorry to rant...
 
hey ken,hope everything goes well with your shoulder.hope dawn gets better as well..looking forward to seeing ya again.:rock:
 
Ken my thoughts are with you two! You guys have had some unlucky crap to deal with. Not fun I know. Keep your chin up bud and lemee know what I can do.

On another note glad the truck is running good! I know what your saying about loose wires! I just re-wired my NOS, Bottle Heater and Line Lock tonight getting pretty creative....still not right! LED is coming on on the NOS box.....but the selodoids aren't firing so its not getting enough juice or I fried them?? Looks like high 12's till I get her figured out! C-ya on the 21st......and you are going to take me on a ride in your beast....still haven't ridden it it!
 
Me too Ken,hope everything goes well with you and Dawn !!!!Sorr to have to miss the gtg at Earls,but I'm looking forward to the April gtg !!!:rock:
 
Damn Ken, I'm still catching up from being out of town for several days and came across this. Our thoughts and prayers are with you guys...we hope you both get better soon!!!!!!!
 
Ken how did the Dr. Visit go?

We had a little GTG tonight at Moroso in Palm Beach. Good times! We only got 3 runs it but we all had fun. You'll have to come to one over here in the fall....Moroso is closing June-September to re-do the track surface, new towere, stands and concessions. I guess Pinks paid off for them??
