I got the best gift ever. My wife took her first steps since she had a stroke 2 weeks ago. It was the most beautiful thing that I have ever seen. I was not sure she would ever be able to move her left side again. It will be a long recovery, but she is already talking about getting to the racetrack this summer! Also I got 5HP

I agree, that would have been the best gift that you could have hoped for. I hope she is able to make a full recovery. My wife wreaked a racecar in 2000 and was in a coma for 5 weeks, so I know what its like for someone to start recovering.

Everyone in my family thinks of me as Mr. Fix-it so they had Santa bring me a nice tool bag to carry my assorted home type fix-it tools. Now there's no excuse for me to turn down fixing anything that breaks at any of their homes.

My most outstanding present was a new Olympus digital camera and a 4GB memory card disc. I hinted around before Christmas that I needed a camera that would take better close up photos of assorted items I run across in S/SS tech and/or teardown. Now I will be able to zoom in on the details......just in case the need ever occurs.

Well I was completely blown away by my wife, for as much complaining as she does about my racing she goes out and gets me a new lap top for the data aquatition she got me last year that I havent hooked up yet , no excuses now ,and a engine diaper as per 2012 new rules, a enclosure that zips on my golf cart to keep the weather off me,and a cart cover to keep the dirt off it. Also she is letting me go to the hangover race with my friend, instead of a Disneyland trip with her cause our grandson is taking her there (she goes to Disneyland easily 6 to 7 times each year) so I bought the Passport for her again this year (saves money ). Now maybe I can convince her to by some new slicks for Valentines Day Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?
