    Thanks for the info on peter...super nice guy and an excellent driver.

    As far as MSPI goes, every business is gonna have those kind of stories. I mean look at whomever built your car.....that was quite the embarrassment yesterday but I am sure that yours is not the poster car for their shop. You said you knew you were slow yesterday but yet you kept pulling that turd onto the track. Jason DID say something about you running but the starting line guy told him he thought you would be ok so Jason let you run.

    Blake, it was a 10.17 pass @ 7.5psi. 4000 pounds baby!!
    I have had good results with my hv-20 in "tv" mode...manually setting the shutter speed and the white balance to have colors match what i see vs what is on the screen. If you sharpen it some in post processing it looks really good. I do not like the wmv HD codec but it is common and folks can access it to view the videos easily

    Well i cant blame a shop or anyone but myself!! My motor has never seen a shop or was built in a shop. During the winter i put new pistons in the block and i did the rings myself, that was the 1st time ive ever done it, Now i regret it since im getting to much blowby.. This time peter is gonna rebuild it for me. Better safe then sorry!!
