We had a memorial lunch yesterday for my wife's sister, I ordered the fish & chips ... it was Gordon's fish sticks $28- lunch was on the son's tab so I kept my mouth shut. Bonefish grill is another **** hole I can put on the list of places not to go.

Not two things I trust in a mechanic at the same time. Not saying it's possible, but if it's real, it's incredibly rare. And, a stage two really should be dyno tuned, and it's best to keep it all under the same roof.

Good late afternoon all. My team came in second in the scramble today and won $40 bucks each. It cost $20 to enter and I spent $20 on beer so I broke even. Today it was feast or famine. I hit some incredible shots and I hit some real clunkers. It was hard to figure what was causing the bad swings. For one thing in a scramble they usually make me the anchor or 4th to hit. By this time if we have generally have a nice one out there so I am not playing my usual game but trying to do better or longer than the good shot we already have. It is just a different approach when playing best ball.

scrambles are tough. Especially when you’re honest. Not assuming anything Jeff, but I never could figure out how some teams get a birdie on every hole , and the ultimate 1st place team are all beer guzzling pot bellied good ole boys.

He's the best mechanic I've ever met. He built his dad a 700hp 454 in a weekend. His right hand guy used to be an NHRA tech. They did both my bikes for years
