Working on my Firebird right now. I bought some new parts, got all the stuff to have 2 engines ready to go. detailing the engine compartment, and rewiring the car. I'm planning to have Kenny Richard recarpet the interior as well.
I missed all of last year, do to my September wedding and all the planning and saving before. I hope to race most of the Division one schedule, ECSSA races, and Maybe Indy as well. Also plan to run the Wednesday night gamblers at Etown with my friends to practice.

Tough to buy a new car, race it, have problems, and put it away for the year. I'm chopming at the bit, I cant wait untill April...

Got everything working together.
Just some more planning and go !!

However Tore Rotator Cuffs on both shoulders a few year ago.
Now they are really bad and need surgury.

Each will be 6 weeks to heal and 6 months full recovery.
3 month spread in between but have to do it.
Should be ok by August or September..

Looks like less Weight Lifting and more Running to ward off Dun-Lop!

Then there is my older Daughters Wedding ..
OUCH!...They are expensive !!

AND no money for a Dowery :rolleyes:

Well guess I will plan for 2014..got enough time now !

Dan
Dan have had surgery on both shoulders the left three different times good luck. Also a lot of therapy after the surgery.

My goal is to have my car done in August. I'm on a shoe string budget that has broken and been tied back together a few times lol. I'm behind on the project now but will be doing all that I can to get the car out in the 2013 season and make a full season for 2014 and beyond. New to NHRA Stock and Super Stock, and new car. I want to make it to Indy something fierce but it all comes down to money and getting my grade points to be eligible. Ill be there regardless but hopefully not just spectating and helping others in the pits.(no offense)

I think we are really going to see some battles between the new factory Hot Rods with many 8sec players in stock. Several HP bumps, several new guys, return of several great racers, and it will be a fun year. There will certainly be some complaining and drama but that is inevitable because people are involved lol.

Everyone have a great year, be safe, have fun and enjoy all your family and friends. Best of luck to each and every one of you!

Pretty much where we are. After a great year in 2010, which we were grateful for, we suffered two straight years of continual setbacks, mostly bizarre and unpredictable failures. I expect a late start for us this year, and something of a short season, but hopefully we'll be well prepared, have our problems solved, and 2013 will be a year where we get back to where we were.
