He is supposed to call me on Friday to take a look at the building. From the sounds of it he is still going through the lease details. He says it is like buying a house so putting it in those terms it sounds like the building is in escrow!

I think we are at least a month away! It sounds like he has to build the track and all the pit tables. He is in talks with So Cal's building owner to get the dirt but he is going to leave the pit tables behind and build his own.

Trust me I can't wait. The track will only be 2.7 miles away from my house! If I move closer to the kids school (hopefully in the next year or two) It will still be that close!

He is pointing to his shirt and raising his hand to say I want one of these fast motors too!

I was going to get one of those but it was MY bed time before I was able to get him in the shirt and the pictures posted. I will get dressed up and get a pic of the two of us soon.

I always hated to go to SoCal because the freeways to

get there from here are so bad, except on Sundays.

Will we have to take the same freeways??

Yes, guys, after 30yrs. living in California, I still can't

get around! Have to get directions to Hot Rod's everytime

I go up by myself! Got lost once in Glendora!!

Naw. He has to beat me first! Once he gets faster then me we will see if I turn into a full time car tuner. I actually like racing more the wrenching though. I got my oldest daughter driving my old truck. She has become an expert tire washer! She actually likes doing it! Last time I took her to the track she washed 170+ tires. She went around the pits asking to wash peoples tires!

From your place take the 210 east to the 57 south. Take that all the way down into the OC and exit Katella and make a left (east). It will be down Katella about 3-4 miles on the right.

That should be easier then getting to So Cal.

My sis is about to start racing some again. She is 22... she ran alot in her late teens then got too cool for it. Now that she is older and bored, she wants to race again. She ran once at an oval race in 2005. She had not raced in 2 years, made the A in 19t truck oval. Then last year she ran my old truck one club night and swept sportsman. Won every heat and the main. So, im excited that she wants to run more.
