[Re: winter projects]

Heh... I raced too much and blew up the engine. No? You don't believe me?

Actually, it was a half-assed rebuild done last year (they replaced the rod 
bearings, never touched the rods) and claimed that the motor was low mileage 
and b/c I didn't know any better, that sounded good. Turned out when Shawn V 
and I ripped apart the motor at Momentum that the pistons had stress marks, 
the crank was torched, the rods were knocking and the bearing paper thin and 
mostly disintigrated.

Well, lucky me got stuck with the yearly engine and tranny rebuild during
the summer so this winter should be quiet - get the damage fixed from the
two hit and runs mr. scirocco suffered during the spring and replace the
suspension.

What ARE you doing to that pretty car girl? I thought a yearly clutch was 
bad
enough!

My plans?

Same thing as I do every day, try to take over the world...

Seriously,  in order:

Slosh oil around in the engines periodically (and think go fast thoughts)
Build a 2 car garage
Clean the house
Pay off some debts

That should do it. Everything else can wait till spring.
