Its BROKE!!!

It selfdestructed on the way home from Allentown today. I just it towed home and I left at 3:45pm. Don't know what broke, I'm thinking its in the topend. I hope at least. I did miss a shift on my third run but it ran fine for the rest of the day, until I was in South Coventry right by Lowes. Then just MAD tapping. I pulled it off and shut her down. It's *ucked!

On a side note, Chu, Jeff, Ryan, I had a great time today. Getting 8 runs is unheard of. Jeff I heard you ran some crazy time, congrats. Did you wait for your trophy? I have a nice trophy out front... looks great, doesn't drive for *hit.

At first I thought you were talking about the clutch, but your not. That really sucks.

I did take the trophy home 42.162

Petey I wouldn't have the slightest clue how to do that...?

I like Ryan's windshield wipers in that pic. Happen to bump the arm while sawing on the wheel?

I think my last run would have been the fastest, but I slid and took out the whole finish line. Green cones and all

rotate the crank pulley until you are at top dead center, then look at the teeth and timing marks on the cam gears and check to see if it skipped a tooth
