    It's not even the machine shop that's screwing me. i just called to check on the pistons, and was told they will ship the 23rd, they had to make them, when i was told they were sitting on the shelf they didnt' realize they were a mismatched set, two different weights.

    I went through that with pistons... Semi custom, just their normal shelf piston with different ring grooves ... Except they screwed one up cutting the ring grooves and it would be 8 more weeks for new forgings. Said screw them and bought CP, more expensive, but they was spot on and came in a presentation box :)

    I thought you were going to test on the 24th. Did your work schedule change? It doesn't matter what time we go as long as I get to park by 2 time.:D

    I originally planned on it... Work kept me there until 11pm that night. Headed to PRP right now actually.

    :( yeah, it's not looking good for me to test that weekend at all now. I will get out of here on schedule but have to make another quick trip. I "could" test at PRP the Thrusday before we leave, but at that point if I broke it I would be out of luck and would rather go to Columbus and have it happen there and keep my string of failures in tact ;)

    For anyone interested in going and running out with us ....

    We are going to meet Friday AM up at the Eat N Park in New Stanton with intent to be on the way around 6:30. That should get us out there before 10:00 with enough time to get registered and through tech for TnT at 11:00

    If you want to meet, post up or PM for my cell phone number.

    Just got back from the Firebird Nationals in Dayton. Mid-way between Wheeling and Zanesville there is bridge construction and it's down to one lane in each direction. Going out Friday we sat in traffic for an hour and a half.
    Coming home today there was no traffic or delay.
