I can never remember what gear I run in at which track  Maybe Chris can tell us what gear he runs in with the 4.10. I ran the 4.10 in the past but I have a known pending failure with that gear (half broken pinion tooth) so I am trying to not use it as much as possible. Plus another driver told me he likes the 3.58 better than the 4.10 yet others tell me the opposite. I too saw the .09 difference between 4.10 in 5th and the 3.58 in 4th and didn't think that would amount to much of a difference but who knows. I remember seeing somewhere a calculator to determine engine rpm based on a certain final drive ratio. As an engineer I should be able to do this myself yet I find myself to lazy too  Gerad

I've realized that all I need to do is be the best Semi-Pro out there and I could qualify (you know Andrea Hans qualified at Speedrome because she was the only Semi-Pro to compete)! With Tatman out all I need to worry about is Kyle Baugh, Dustin Sword and you (ok, so maybe I have a lot to worry about)!! You can bet my bag a tricks will be out. I will sick my "step-mother-inlaw" on you before the race.........you will never be the same again...... No, I wouldn't do that to my worst enemy........hahahaha  Gerad

Since this season has become a comedy for me, I figure maybe shaving my # in the back of my 7 year olds head might get the electrical gremlins out of the car! I guess we'll find out tomorrow.

It would be abuse if he waxed it into his son's head.

I never made it to race, held back by a bad summer cold and flu. Minnesota dealer, Tim Brockhouse, won the feature. Andee Beierele, the young lion I have been helping and currently leads the national dirt young lion points, nationally, ran the feature. She finished 2nd in her heat race and they lined her up 20th out of 22 cars for the feature. Must be an invert thing from heat finishes. She finished 13th. The track was like glass after the sprints ran their show. ~ Gimpster ~

But I asked my wifes permission first...does that make it OK?  I have a good lady there...she said OK with no hesitation...I think she's sick of me moping around not being able to fix this thing since it only happens under race conditions
