BTW...I want to do a dyno day soon. Where is the place to go? And please figure out a good deal for about 8-10 of us for about 7-8hrs. That's your homework.

I'm done with homework, except I think I'm going to start grad school in the fall....
It'll come back sometime, I have to make sure I can keep up with all those C6Z's first
PS: I never uploaded any after I got things dialed in (this was the first day shaking down that setup last year), but here's some videos. This should help in my playing the part of a Corvette owner.

Its a part time fun thing for me... for now, would love to go full-time with it one day.
I would be more than happy to have everyone over, fire up the pig smoker, and see who can lay down some decent numbers on the rollers! Just be aware, some of the locals with the fords may show up looking for a little competition.... lol
Hopefully I'll be able to make the March meet and we can figure something out!

Running a shop isn't as much fun as its cracked up to be when you HAVE to do it and you rely on it to pay the bills.

Never turn your hobby into your means of paying bills... It would just be to fill the time between breakfeast and dinner and keep me from being bored in the afternoon! I have few options on the table with several lease componies to pay the bills, just taking the time to let them bid where I want and get my time in at my current job to leave with all my 401k lol

If you can pick and choose the jobs you want to do and do it on your schedule, its a blast. Once I settle into this new job, I'll probably eventually get some shop space and start doing some sidework again.
Its lunch and they haven't run me off yet

Lee -- personally, I'm excited I got promoted from night time stock boy to the day shift. Maybe one day I'll move up to cashier.
