Looks like this years Gathering may be the re-appearance of the "Slow Red Car"... 'Zilla has been handing me my azz for over a month, and I got an email this AM that my needed items will not be available for over 3 weeks- Leaving me no time to install and prep the car. Sad I have to make a decision, so I guess the saddest thing is peeps will need to set their alarm clocks for 6 AM to commerate the first Gathering the dubious black T/A won't make it to rattle the ground since G7. I'm beyond upset, but that doesn't change facts. For once, I can roll the Varsity cruise with clear conscience Wink - However, ya'll don't get any ideas, the slow red car will be slower than ever. Wink Bring it. Big Grin
if the red car is that slow, you might as well just give it to me. Woundn't want you to be seen in something that slowwww.Angel
Hate to hear it T. I am right there with ya, I had Zek out today and 2nd Gear is not being friendly these days. I am hoping it is good through G13 and then I will get it looked at.

Synchro, synchro, synchro...not a bad fix, just address it before it becomes more.

I know, I'm seriously bummed- I just shut the garage door and started drinking. I'm breaking valvesprings, and just learned It has at least 2 bent pushrods to boot. I'm pulling the heads back off this week, I have a bad Idea what's wrong... Blackeye
Man- that sux huh?

Well our Yukon just shit a transmission- now it is a real possibility that I could miss the event. Trying to pull some rabbits out of some hats...we'll see.
