Now for good news!

As I mentioned in my earlier post I mentioned that I was getting married next August. No, the good news is that I did not dump the woman for the car I really love my car. Alot. I worked for 4 years as a grease monkey changing oil to buy it and I'm not about to give it up without a fight. So.....I did what any man would do to hang onto his woman, I mean car! I got another job. Yes, I'l be putting an extra 20 hours a week(minimun). I figure this will cover me till the wedding and maybe longer. Who knows how long I'll last but "a man's gotta do what a man's gotta". So I may not be able to race but at least I get to keep my car. Hey Easy, if your working on the weekends we can hangout on breaks (PM me!) Thought I'd share this with you guys. I really haven't told anyone else except for my woman and parents. Other than them, you guys/girls are my only friends so I figure I'd share this with you.

You guys can look forward to 2003 track days with good tasting BBQ's and my two tone T/A.

James man...I hear you "doing what you gotta do" I worked 3 part time jobs for 4 years, to get myself thru university man but I did it and I don't regret it one bit looking back cuz it was worth it, and I am sure getting married will be 10,000X better than that!

Hey man, you dont gotta worry about gas etc going to the races etc next year, just show up/give me a call and buy me a coffee man and I will make sure you make it out there next year, I always say the more the merrier....so I say just cuz you are not driving does not mean you can come along, we will make sure you can join us.....especially since I would love to see your face when Rovic and I beat your best time on the strip next year !!!!

Hey James good for you. Once upon a time I used to have 2 or 3 jobs going. I did what I had to do at the time to get what I needed to get what I wanted done.

Thank you for the bbq compliments. Actually, the secret mods consists of swapping fuel tanks and the rear gears. I shot the bearings racing this summer. Can't stand the whinning and can't stand the smell.
