I did a red-eye (7pm-5am) trying to get my truck ready for TT and got it running real good, so I took a quick shower, got my new helmet and headed towards the fairy terminal to meet Randy. Luck has it, The truck starts acting up real bad while in route to the fairy, so I turned around (missed the fairy) and headed back to the garage to try and diagnose the bad miss and after another 6 hours of reverse engineering and sleep deprivation, I decided to throw in the towel and look for alternative options, such as, driving it off a cliff or lighting the truck on fire and burning it to the ground. Talk about being pissed.
Sorry for the venting...

I'm going to catch up on some sleep and forget that this ever happend.

For those of you who attended TT, please send me pics.

Thanks

I was looking for ya, Z.....

Kim and Paul took lots of video and said they will post them here at NWSTP. I was only there saturday, but had a great time. Some great racing, good weather, good friends.

SyTy's were present at the event.... Paul, Randy, TT Boise Sean and myself raced, Steve showed up with his Ty and Sam showed up.

BEST RACE OF THE DAY...
Dennis in his T Type against Sean in his TT V8 Syclone. Dennis had Sean off the line, but Sean managed to catch him on the top end... Dennis ran 9:20's, Sean ran 9:10's

SIDE NOTE....
Paul has new 18's on his truck, looks sweet!

OTHER BS..
I ran a 11:47 (no roll bar) and NEVER got yelled at by track officials. Maybe their gonna send me a letter????? Also, in my first elimination run, I posted an 11:60 and ran an 11:52, and still won! Someone had to explain to me that the other lane who posted a 12:43 and ran a 12:43 had red lighted. DOOOHHH! On my second elim. pass, I redlighted waiting on a posted 14.x et....... evidently my left foot holding the brake got tired of letting the other car get such a lead, and I crept thru the lites. Damn, beat by a turbo buick station wagon!

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY....
Hit the cash machine the day before, instead of trying to find one in an area you are unfamiliar with. Thanks to Kim, Randy and Steve for keeping me covered. I DID see some pretty countryside though.

Ok J Kelly V.......... where the hell were you bud?

Can't wait to see the Videos.
Congrads on the stellar times Roland.

So I figured out why my truck was acting up.
My ecm harness wasn't plugged into my ecm securely. What gives...

I'll be at the next gathering in August.
