Not slowing down

I thought maybe since we aren't racing every weekend life would slow down a bit. Nope, it keeps going faster! I'm still trying to figure out what all I'm going to do with my car. Lots of nights at the shop and then home to get on the trainer. Add in the normal Christmas activities and the weeks really fly by. Kylie was the star in her school Christmas program, appearing as The Littlest Christmas tree. She enjoyed the spotlight. I would have done all I could to be in the back row hiding when I was in those programs. Anyway, I'm anxious to get up to the Peariso's and get my brand spankin' new Epic!
Is it March yet?

So much goin' on

So I delivered my car to The Ring Brothers shop in Spring Green.

Those guys are so awesome. I told Mike I had never ridden in a '65 or '66 Mustang before. So he had his brother Jim give me a ride in their shop car. It's a '66, full frame, fully caged, 650 hp Fastback built for autocrossing. I was in it for all of about 5 minutes but I'm pretty sure we topped 100 mph in their industrial park road twice in that time. Jim drives 'em like he stole 'em for sure! Thanks, Jim!

So they're going to start on my car maybe next week already. Things are moving so fast now! I've had the car for 24 years, this new pace is going to take some getting used to. This is what they did to the car whose chassis I'm getting for mine.

So that leads us to last night. It was a full on Redneck event for sure!! We had guns, sweet potato pie, green bean casserole AND a full on roasted pig!!! It was a magical evening. Never one to not go all in our Co-Host went that extra mile for the Team. He got in a drunken brawl (well, kinda')


and ended up with 5 cracked ribs and a partially collapsed lung! Now that is what I'm talkin' about! It's almost enough to bring a tear to this Ol' Boys eye that he thinks enough of us to put forth the extra effort and make it a true Redneck event. My only fear is that we have reached a level we may not be able to achieve again! Only one way to find out I guess, more on that in December of 2011!
Thanks for a great party, Peariso's. Heal up fast Little Buddy!
