The Rag finally has legs

I FINALLY got the thing on the ground and the tranny adjusted. And holy crap it actually MOVED Taking it for a quick trip up the road tomorrow just to show the Harley guys who live up there what a real engine sounds like. Then back to the garage to change the oil and load on the trailer. Exhaust shop on monday, alignment shop on tuesday....Speedworks on Friday. With a little street terrorizing in between See you guys REAL soon

Chris...I'll be up there spectating as well around 2:30 or so. I believe his actual appointment is for 1:30. Should be some fun seeing (and HEARING) the red rag lay down some monster numbers.

If I didn't have to work I woulda had my car done a long time ago!

See the thing is that when you get outta work at 8:15 and Auto Masters closes at 8:00 you're kinda screwed getting out there to buy the god damned -6 AN fittings you've been waiting a week to go get.

Why don't I just go in the morning? Well because I work on my car till 1 or 2 in the morning and I get up around 11 or 12. Doesn't give me much time to get ready for work, head out to Kentwood, and get back to Wyoming by the time 1:00 rolls around.

Ahh well, if all goes well, tonight is the night I'll attempt to fire it up.
