Brett and the guys at Mondello Tech center are some top notch guys with a top notch facility.I really appreciate the use of your facilities and lift.The motor kicked back while starting Friday night and ripped several teeth off of the flywheel and a couple off of the starter.After an early morning wrench session Saturday at Mondello's we had a new flywheel in and were on our way back to the track.Had a new starter brought to the track via a friend and commenced to wrenching again.Got it done right before qualifying.Didn't really know what class to get into so we tried Real street.Talk about bringing a knife to a gun fight!Oh well, I had fun when I did finally get to race.Just wanted everyone that helped to know how much I appreciate it.Thanks,Damien,Bret,Phil(matchstick),Joey,your brother and your wife for holding the starter while doing the hacksaw mods lol and Henry for putting all of us in the bleach box/starting line.Oh,yeah.Thanks to the Howells for letting us stay there Friday night.Gotta put this or I'll be sleeping in my garage.THANKS TO MY PREGNANT WIFE,WHO WAS HAVING CONTRACTIONS SAT. NIGHT FOR PUTTING UP WITH ALL THE RACING BULLSHIT!
P.S.
Damien,your blister is nothing compared to all of the busted knuckles I,ve got from working on that pos.

Thanks Again,Duane

I thought you would get it for sure Duane, i know the feeling well. Couple years ago i was going 6.02-6.02-6.03-6.01 for three months until the better weather came.

Car looks good doing it, sucks about the starter Friday though..
