All through this extended dreary winter, the one thing that kept me positive was the coming track season. So, as soon as weather permitted,out came the trailer, the tools and the car. Ordered tires, replacement parts, spares. Used every free minute to get ready for an April 18/19 event at Summit Point. Resolved the issue about shaved tire balance; found and fixed some worn parts; even found time to add SFCs and heim jointed LCAs. And- finally, I have pneumonia! Will have to cancel the season' first event. Only thing that's not trackworthy is me. *%@!#*^%*$#&@#!

Oh man ... that pneumonia is some bad stuff ...

I had a 6 week bout with it about 10 years ago. I lost about 20% of my lung capacity.

Mitch- Six weeks? I have my second event set for May6th and I'm only 8 days into this thing. Know about the loss of lung capacity- it's the sword's other edge.

The other posts give me a better perspective. I understand Murphology, but I'm inclined to accept mechanical gremlins more easily than my own defects. Guess you can't really discriminate between the two. Here's to Murphy! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/nutkick.gif)
