Can't wait to get on the track to see how my new shocks do. Right rear shock started leaking, so I picked up a set of Z06 shocks. Hope the new ones last longer.

BTW...I passed the last couple ASE's I needed. I'm now a certified ASE Master Technician.

I agree! I know which end is up with a wrench, and I tried to take a couple of those tests...and I didn't pass...they are HARD!

Congrats Neil.

"RUMOR" has it the track will be well prepped As long as it stops raining and washing the rubber off the track. They will "HOOK" us up so long as the weather cooperates.
Sooo juice up those motors and head to our local house of HOOK for the Challenge.
