Jason,

Yes, feeling was mutual. Thank you for the kudoos on the '5. You do have a neat '99. Like I said, miles don't hurt 'em (and you are proving that) as long as you maintain 'em. Got a 2nd run around 10 p.m. Thought I had my linkage fixed (secondaries not opening on the holley). ET and MPH were about 2 seconds and 20 mph slower because of those secondaries not opening.

Was kinda' frustrating to only get 2 passes in in 4 hours but EVERYBODY had the same idea I had...take advantage of the mild weather and test and tune. Had to be over 400 + cars there.

Anyhoo, good to have bumped into you. Keep enjoying your ride.

Regards,

Jim
