Hmmm....Where should I start...

Long story short (or as short as possible, as I don't want to put poor Mr. Asta & Mr. Haas to sleep, as I'm sure they have more things they'd like to accomplish before day's end), I'm waiting on my engine builder. Originally, I was supposed to have the motor back at the end of April or beginning of May. He wasn't ready with it then, and neither was I, so being the nice guy that I am I told him that a few more weeks wouldn't be any big deal. Well, that was probably the wrong thing to say, but live and learn.

In the end though, it's no big deal. The delay will just give me more time to get other things done on the car that haven't been done in a long time (I'm in the process of re-wiring the car at the moment, and I'm going to take it to the chassis shop for a few minor updates as well).

Even then, when I am done NED "Racer" (I don't know your name so how would I actually know if you're a racer), you may not see me at many LODRS events. They're just too expensive to go to, the payout sucks, and because I primarily run S/St the grade points that I get from going to them don't do me much good (with my grade point of 2 from last year, I could have gone to Chicago if I had wanted, but I would have needed at least a 4 to get into Englishtown, and in the foreseeable future I'm not going to Houston, Atlanta, Phoenix, Denver, or Seattle).

So, why WOULD I go to a LODRS event? To race with my buddies, or to get me another mini-Wally, and that's about it. Otherwise, I'm going to be spending my hard earned money primarily at IHRA national events, which are probably more convenient for me to get to (living in WNY sucks from a racing perspective), and have better payouts as well (though admittedly their trophy isn't as pretty).

And to reply to anyone's request in advance, no I will NOT call my motor guy out on the Internet. Unlike some people on here, I value my personal relationships, and I use my real name when I post my opinion on the Internet.

OK, so that wasn't exactly short, but I had to get digs in there about Mr. NED "Racer" not using his real name...Oh, and one more thing Mr. NED "Racer", didn't anyone ever tell you that opinions are like assholes? And I are one...

Rock, no offense was taken by your comment. My response was a jab at myself, not a sarcastic remark towards you. I know I'm a long poster...I just can't help myself. Do they have a 12-step program for this type of problem???

As for you NED "Racer", maybe people at the track do know who you are, just as I might know who you are. Though, I doubt people at the track know you as NED "Racer", and I doubt on your tech card it says NED "Racer". And until you start signing your real name to your posts, you will have 0 credibility with me, and with many other people on this message board.

This message board is for us to talk with each other about various topics, and there are going to be difference in opinion. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion, and I'm not going to get upset at you because your opinion differs from mine. Not that I think that you couldn't sleep at night if I was upset with you, so I don't quite understand why you have this unwillingness to post your real name along with your posts, even though people at the track supposedly know who you are. Every post I have EVER made on here, whether it was popular opinion or not, and whether I think people at the track know me or not, has had my real name affixed to the bottom of my post.

I'm MAN enough to post my real name, are you?

Sounds like a challenge as i see it Mr. NED Racer, this is def good reading

[Rich67stang]

Does anyone remember what the original topic was? LOL
Gary, How is everything?

[sg1838]

Colorful - Us small block guys need to stick together. Did I tell you about the new ultra-small small block that I'm building? I've always wanted to go through the traps under power at 10,000 rpm, and now I'll be able to. [:-grin-:]

Gary - Glad I could be entertaining.

Rich - I think it was about something called the "staging lanes" and how the procedure used in Division 1 isn't very random. But, quite frankly, I don't remember what staging lanes are or where Division 1 is since I don't race anymore...

I hate these people who do not post their names. The new site will eliminate them, however Jason maybe some things have changed at the tracks since you have been there, so how can you comment on everything!

Just my 2 cents

(probably not worth all that much)
