I was sitting on the edge of my seat here reading about your fire-up, Billy...hoping for the best and it came through! Iron Pegasus is ready! It's been a saga, and it sure isn't over by a long shot! I still lament your trip to Eddyville having to be turned around. You were running good enough to seriously contend, and the car is still 100% ready to rock 'n roll. You've handled this car judiciously and with great care and concern. I hope you can get out this Spring and make some passes and really start shaking 'er down. As you've told me, the car is still pretty much brand-new and fresh out of the box yet. Once you're able to tweak it here and there, run it through part of a full season, I believe you'll be shooting from the hip later this year. Good luck and stay safe. Cheers, WC1

Thanks, Y'all.

I have a ton of plans in my head....it just remains to be seen whether they fall out of one of my ears or not :roll: ...for the time being though...those ideas just bounce around in there like a bb in a boxcar.... :oops:

I snuck off and took Peggy to my local track Friday and Saturday of Easter weekend. Peggy pretty much ran what Peggy normally runs in the heat (Mid to high 5.80's) I entered a 5.70 index race on Saturday...In a field of 8 cars, I qualified 5th, with a 5.84. Unfortunately, for me, I had to run the #2 qualifier (5.709) in the first round. It didn't take long for me to get my backside handed to me...at the hit I was knawin' on the hind teet...his .4461 easily bested my .4839. At the top end he was woofin' the loud pedal on me to the tune of a 5.7958 to my skating around 5.8843. I "could" try to blame the track conditions (slippery to "iffy" from half track on) but I'll just man-up and say I got whooped and let it go at that. Its not like the guy got a virgin in that endeavor. As has become the norm with Peggy (knock wood) I loaded 'er up under power and am ready to do it again sometime soon....'possibly' this weekend (but I ain't holdin my breath :( ).
