  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Hi Brian,
    Engine got a new one piece pan gasket. Trans got a new second gear and brass rings. Also aligned the bell housing. New stainless lines and body mounts on the frame. Are you coming to Stanton this year?
     
  12. I wish... keep hoping to make it as a spectator. But, life happens...

    My car is partially apart, in the process of undoing someone's mess and repainting the entire car. Work has me very busy, and I have some other irons in the fire - family related.

    I need to look at the schedule and plan at least one of my vacation weeks around a race.

    On a high note, I did purchase an enclosed trailer last month.
