Oh and it's been driven to the track everytime this year. Probably have almost 1500 miles on it this year. One of the factory subs blew up today so now the radio sounds like shit. Between the exhaust, transmission, and rearend it makes it's own sound track.


Brothers mustang went 12.7@108 today but broke a bolt off on the manual alternator tensioner. We cobbled it with some zip ties to get him home. I tuned his GTP yesterday and it dropped 2 more tenths and gain 1.5mph. Pretty sure it was 14.6@95. Tuning, a filter and catless downpipe has dropped over a half second off this car. The tune was set pretty safe, just forgot the laptop to upload the track tune

Got my new tire pressure gauge. It's pretty damn nice for $20. Pretty much my old one read 5lbs low. So my slicks were always 20lbs instead of 15. Sunday is our last test and tune and it looks like it might get rained out.


Next year I'll have a good base line to start from.

Car is done for the season. Slicks are in the basement for safe storage.


Got some more news from .gov - my case has been moved to the board of appeals, so probably another year or so before someone actually looks at it.

Tuned my brothers 04 rcsb 2wd Silverado. Went from barely turning over the tire, to a one tire fire. Couldn't get the 60e to hit the 1-2 As I'd like, but he has an 80e waiting for it.

Too soon or too late?

It just hangs on the shift, delayed and soft. 2-3 is nice and crisp. Every other one I've tuned has been good. The truck has 240k miles on it and we don't know what has been done.

My wife and I attended a burn survivor workshop yesterday. It's always nice to be surrounded by people that just get everything that you've been thru, and not only for me as a survivor but my wife as a caregiver/spouse.


I met David Bowers for the first time. Him and his wife Carly are truly amazing people. He survived a explosion that left him with 94% of his body burned. They even gave out a copy of their book to everyone that attended. http://www.bowersministry.com/the-book/


The doctors put me @ 80% - and when I sit and think about things, it reminds me that - I'm damn lucky, and someone up stairs was looking out for me.
