Released from the rest home after one month and a day; back to the wild and my hands. Complete recovery, a real engine break-in is in progress, warranty continues ;) Give me a couple weeks and I tell ya if it runs any different. I know the exhaust is a bunch more quiet with new cats.

Yes, and lots of it. Just driving it around now dirty in the heat and getting miles on it. Next week I’ll make it better when I have some time.

Forgot how damn nice those tires and brakes feel when set-up for street driving. It has been about two months since it was dressed like this.

Rest home my ass. I just got out of the hospitital for being diagnoised from a couple of sir geons concerning my neck and back. Surgery for sure. Whom and when??? I got these 2 damn doves, pigioens, in my garage and crap on my clean car. Daily basis is to wipe the crap off the car and keep the door shut. It has been raining here every day and I mean hard rain. 3 and 4 inches at a time. Good for the wax.

Thanks. She is a nice one, it had a little break in action caused by a converter that got blown apart and started an unfortunate sort of mechanical and heat death spiral at a bad time. All is good, but I have a virgin block that was not given a run on the dyno down south to season these next couple of weeks.

Got another repair/upgrade scheduled for myself in about a month. I don’t consider waiting too long after they show me pictures of my bad joints before I approve more work. Another surgeon needs his 401k account increased. How many pieces of hardware do you have so far Hick? I have three lumbar levels tied up with another one or two on deck. This replacement next month is the right shoulder joint. It will be a few months before I can work on the car. Apparently changing the wheels may be a challenge for a few weeks they say.

Keep that garage door closed!

Where did Hick go?

Drove it again today and I am liking it more and more again. Something may have been wrong with the “other” one. It is really smooth running. I have a more quiet supercharger and louder exhaust IMO. The gauge said it is getting up to the correct boost. Very interesting. I’ll keep my mouth shut on performance because I’ll wait until I can lap it at BIR. Then we will know what we have.

Thanks, my friend. Can’t wait to get home and finally drive it when it is not 95 degrees. Oil change coming in the next few days, then maybe we can get a time or two off of it and see what we have.
