Wow... Figure forums were mostly dead now with the amount of traffic and stupid posts that the Facebook groups have

It's not like it was in the [way back] machine but the bookface forums [never] saw that level of activity. I see folks come here after spinning their wheels inside bookface channels, tired of "Boy Racer" answers that get them nowhere.

A lot of the activity we lost is general chit-chat. The options for that sort of thing are wide and varied these days.
 
For those curious about the weight with me in it...

Going to try and pull another 50-60lbs out soon

Welp... 10.04@138 on motor to make sure everything was good. Back in the lanes with fresh plugs to make the first nitrous pass and the sky opened up. First time we have had rain in a month. And it rained just long enough to shut it down for the night.
