Now we all now this is not good but I've learned to understand that few, very few, left-brain creative & very talented constructors are also right-brain solid business men who know how to schedule their time, energy and money on the same level as their craftsmanship in the shop deserve.
Face it, most of us can't afford the shops that are right & left brain operations.

I was going to pay a visit to my race car today as it's in chassis / engine prison. So I called before I made the 75 mile one-way trip. Glad I did. The owner is busy this week helping his son move from his home. Now I won't get into that soap opera, but the bottom line is work for me and everybody else got put back another week because of non-work issues. Excuses get really old but I know this guy is a genius and it's going to be worth the wait.
And I can't say I've had a burning desire to be on the track lately so I'm fine with it all. And it looks like my transition from Stock to SuperStock was well timed...!
Jeff there are talented innovative people who do this work in a timely and efficent manner also.
