She'll need to remedy that soon so there will be 3 WDP TLS out there.
So everyone, what's the word about those dates I posted for one last try at Ennis?

WDP TLS on roids . . . . 
The misses gave me the thumbs up on getting both the springs and sways. I'm feeling good naanaanaa
The bad news is my brother has been ordered by the city to move all no operational or non-registered vehicles. That means I've got to move my old 64 SS Malibu.
After a couple of weeks of sleeping on it, and talking to my brother about the overall condition and effort to restore it, . . . . sigh :shakehd: . . so I've decide to get ride of it.
The upside is I can use the cash to pay for the work on my TLS.
I can't believe after 25 years I'm going to get rid of it. :shakehd:
I need a drink . . . no make that a drunk . . .

MAN! -
The irony of that last reply, post #1327.
Specifically the 327 part. The engine that made that car screem was a 327, and happens to be the only thing I'll keep from it.
Make one think about things like this. humm

Heh, I know how ya feel Ruf, I know how ya feel. Parting with cars is hard. I can't imagine having had one for that long, and then deciding to part with it.

Sorry about the SS--that is a bad deal.
October 4--I am in El Paso on business so I can't be there.
November 15 and 22--so far, these look good.
Inferno WPD TLS
Dallas Burn--4 Colorado Rapids--2 (I heard Colorado's coach has a silver ride--or is its his grandmother's walker that is silver?)

Hey folks, considering next weekend is Oct 4th, it may be pushing it to get the word out.
Anyone else thinking the same? :thinking:
It would also allow some of our buddies like Civic and Mantis to get their cars in good running order. :P

As for the races, probably not until November 15th or 22nd.
Oct 12 is a big pro event, and I won't be in any condition until Nov 15th or later.
I've posted an update on the thread requesting a response to either of these dates.

Okay Gang,
We need to lock in a date for the last track meet of the year.
The 10/4 weekend is coming up and only a couple of folks responded. And I have a conflict as it turns out, not to mention lilie is forecasted to bring rain to the area that weekend.
So we really need to decide if 11/15 or 11/22 will work out.

We have springs . . .
Give me a ring and let me know who to call so I can get them to him.
BTW - they are even in the original Comptech Box.

Well, she's history.
My 64 SS that is. The guy hauled her off this weekend. sniff
There wasn't much of an option. The city had lock down on the storage of cars behind shops, and I can't justify renting a storage space.
Oh well, those were fun times.

I probbaly won't have my car for a while. Its going into the shop for about 3 weeks for a top secret project. Don't wanna say too much until its done, but in either case, I won't have it for a while.

Oh yeah, about the 4th. It looked like it was gonna be a good day to go to the track, but then the weather report keeps changing. Today I saw Fri. is supposed to have a high 92, and rain, so lots of humidity. Sounds like Nov. will work out better.
