Forgot the question mark - that was for Brent. Nothing worse than tearing a perfectly good mill apart and putting back together to be disappointed.
Once he plays the voodoo, what am I to think

Hell No - but I did stay in a holiday inn express once. I enjoy autos and enjoy performance tech - I have been studying and playing with vehicle dynamics since the 80's - it really fascinates me. Skiied alot when I was younger and got thousands of miles on slippery surfaces (should have been jailed more than once). I finally got in a position to peruse on a track at some level and I am. My 5th driving event Sunday - can't wait.

The throttle really does not scare me. One of my goals was to try to build to the spirit and balance of the originals (289 FIA USRRC) - the ERA is an advantage (chassis) I realize, but still, I do not want to get too far from the power to weight balance of the originals.

Nah - I've been flogging my Mustang which is a very safe predictable car - we'll be o.k. (or we won't
