Haven't spoken with her in a while. Long story, but I'll tell her to come on over and say heya!

Life is crazy busy, but that's because sales are way up. Trying to hire more people for the construction company as well.
Ran off to St. Thomas and St. Croix to get married.
Shopping for a new home for us is time consuming.

All nice problems to have; just time consumers, but they keep me movin'

Oh wow congrats Scott!!
Staying the ABE area?
I'm putting some resumes out in the Philly and Boston area.
I was down your neck of the woods last weekend visiting some racing friends.
Are you still running your car?

Thank you

Moving South but in stages. Looking in the Bucks County area North of Philly.

Haven't been to the drags since Fall of '09. Had oil blow by issues and had to abort the 2nd run.
1st run was killer. I was trying to take it easy and get a feel for the new setup:
Small burnout, granny launched at 3500 rpm and short shifted at 5500rpm and still went 10.9 at 131.

Got the bugs worked out, but had a few issues over time so I'm having a new motor put in.
Just went to Anger Mgmt Racing for a LS3 conversion 416 cid with TEA 235 heads, 11.6:1 compression etc.

I just finished up my MBA (Finance & Management) so I took a couple weeks off to get some much needed down time. And you know this area...I'll be moving, all I know is I don't want to go to the city. Boston was very nice, clean and was told its a relatively safe city...so I plan on going up to that area again to do some background homework

I heard AMR does good work too, but for some reason I thought you would have gone to Chris and Doug. Mojo speaks highly of Tommy so I just assumed he worked primarily on C4s.

Congrats on the degree!!
That one in particular requires a lot of work/discipline.

I'll have to talk to you about Mojo one of these days. Got some really odd comments from him at a meet 4 years ago that completely puzzled me.

Tommy is a certified Master GM tech and works on all Vettes. ECS hired him when his regular gig fell through. Long story.
Doug will be tuning it like he did with the last one. Those guys rock!
