It's gonna be cold Wednesday night. Will be a great night for the turbo guys. I'm trying to get my schedule worked out to so that I can make it.

+1 for Vince getting some new rubber. Don't break it.

Whatever it takes to get this thing to 60ft as fast as possible will be done. If that requires a 6,000rpm sidestep of the clutch, then it'll be done.
