Don't worry Stimpy,,,the Iowa boys aint scared to put it away oily. We know how to install new pistons as required!!

Nitro pistons are like Hookers,,,ya buy them, use them, but don't get attached to them as they aren't going to be around long!!!!! :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

ghee and you appear so innocent ..... so the Charlie Shean method applies to nitro pistons is what your saying . and the oil is not what worrys me it when you try to make the car a rolling easy bake oven ... :shock:

Trying to remember all the stuff we took to the starting line when I crewed.
Small tool tray.
Fuel jug in case we got shut off and had to top the tank off.
Batteries and cable. We did have them in a milk case back then.
Several rags.
Air tank and tire gauge.
Driver-He insisted on it.
Ear Muffs
Rubber bungee straps, so the body would not jump off the pole on the return road.
Flashlight
That's all I can remember now, after 23 years.

I thought that maybe Santa would bring us a name for Norm's current money pit ...
Randy's built like Santa , maybe we can get "the Name" from him ... :?

I'm just wondering if we're going to have to use a port-a-power to resize the cage after the holidays. :D

Can one of you guy's let me know, when you know, when your taking the chassis to Indy?

If I have the cart together by then, my thoughts are to meet you somewhere there, then you guy's could take the cart back with you. Sound's like a plan???
Of course, on my end, it would all depend on if there's any snow in the forcast! :roll:

Talked to Roo on Thursday afternoon. It looks like things are getting close for us to take the chassis out to him. He is going to call me early next week to give me another update. 8)
