i'll defintely be there tommorow night. think i am gonna knock off work a couple hours early and try to get the car detailed.
even though at this point with all the scratches and chips detailing it is almost pointless, but oh well. she can look good aside from a few of the cosmetic problems.

ah man, i could have kicked myself the other day when i went to meet denny.
i filled up at sunoco on my way out, and when i went to hang up the gas pump, i didn't get it all the way on the base. it fell off and went nozzel first into the bottom of my door.
i am still so pissed at myself. there is a nice dent, and a big chip and scratch outta my paint.
i think i am gonna have the whole car covered in nerf material.

Yes Justin i will be at the car show at the waterfront tonight. I'll give you a call later to try and meet up.
So here is an update on my first hillclimb. this was the most scary, fun thing i've ever done in the car. Really like a short tarmac stage in a rally! I brought home another 2nd place trophey. And i broke the old SM record for the hill. Well i only had it for a few minutes tho. My friend in the flatblack mustang, put down a run that stunned everyone racing. In fact people were so stunned they sent an official over to check for the NOS that they "Knew" he had to have to run that fast. Well guess what he dosnt. LOL. So i'll take my 2nd place.
Now what im starting to realize is. I think it might be time for some more power out of the car this winter. I'm having a hard time getting that extra little bit of time on the mustang. Can we say time for a big turbo.

Is a bigger turbo going to help in a hill climb? I'm sure a 20G or something might be good, but what about a 50 trim? Or a 30R? In hill climbs you want good mid range in addition to top end, right? You aren't really up high revving for very long, right? I'm just trying to understand the whole hill climb thing.
