Budget racing the old nuts & bolts

Both actually and since we both live our lives on the theory that if we didn't have bad luck I'd have no luck at all my wife goes in for surgery tomorrow on her toe next to the little pinky toe. We've tried to get it to heal for the last 6 weeks maybe 10 weeks or so and it just will not heal so we need to take it in and have it splint or plate put in to stop it and just get on. this after two complete knee Replacements last year and was just starting to walk the dogs around the block and kick that damn bed post going to bed I heard it "snap!" Life so the doc said 6 weeks back on her feet. Life goes on she's not a boo hoo'er. She was enthused and was enjoying herself a lot and was talking of being able to see herself giving it a try and using words like that and that was Cool! I still got a few more projects to do with the two-step and other things like I need some Street drag radials so we can just drive it there and drive it home and some other stuff to make it completely comfortable for her to drive. It was very well behaved off the starting line and quite Snappy on the shift and fun. I think I was running like 17 pounds of air in the back.
but she could tell it got a little floaty towards the top end. I've already been discussing the ideas of the Eighth Mile on Wednesday it's a little more expensive and it's kind of more organized for the purse but she still will hit 3rd gear just before the 8th mile.

That's a bummer. Having a a bad wheel is never fun. Hope the surgery goes well.
