Damn, I wish one day I can retire so I can spend the day visiting hot rod shops, hanging out with friends and drinking beer. :toothy10: Just kidding with you Mike. :cheers:

I'm glad to hear that carb set-up worked out so well for you. Is that the one you got from Billy?

JOE!!!!! I bought that for Mike 2 years ago for his 50th birthday present. HOW COULD YOU FORGOT THAT!!!!!:yawinkle: Just had to give you a hard time, just kidding. He did send it to Billy to set it up for him and did a great job. I wish you could retire some day soon, (me too) but Mike deserves his retirement and I'm glad he has some good days out. He hasn't open a beer yet but we are heading to APA league night at the bar, and he'll be opening up one reallllllllllllll soon. Have a great evening. Treva

Treva,

I did forget. :clock: I'm not all that much younger than you all and CRS get's the best of me now and again (CRS=Can't Remember S***). :-D I think we should all be able to retire dang it. :cheers:

Have fun tonight Treva and Mike! I'll have to crack one open in your guy's honor tonight. It's early here still (5:15) and I want to take the Jeep for a little cruise and test out the stereo I put in last night. 8)
 
Looks like Treva caught me in the shower last night before we took off to our league night Joe :happy10:

I sure had a full day yesterday :-D and stopping by to see some ol friends and talking a bit and telling some cool stories about our day being young gun's :rock::drinkers::burnout:
We have to be at the location to shoot APA pool at about 6pm to 6;30 and it's about a 15 minute drive, I was shooting my last game to win and made a great kick shot and everyone went crazy, I looked over at Treva and guess who was standing there applauding me on :tongue9: It was Tim "dusterforever" and watched my last game and I did not know it 8) I was on my game to say the least last night :-D our team captain called me up to play this guy me being ranked a 5 and him being ranked a 6 but shoot's like an 8
the crowd was quite and watching our game Treva said, I was to focused on my game to notice :sign7: I won and my team and looked like everyone there was watching was applauding me as I shook hands with this 6'5'' shooter 8)
Tim sure surprised me when I was walking to Treva and he was watching
So I will say that yesterday was a Five Stare Day :cheers:

My wife is from arkansas so we go to jonesboro area twice yearly. MeMike came over in Victoria and we drove to breakfast. I was really surprised how peppy that slant six is! He is gonna have to get a Tach on it...really winds up quick! Victoria rides really smooth and is a very clean car. Anyone would be proud to own it. I also went to his pool tournament that night and watched him play. He made a great comeback and final shot and win for his team. Also got to do a little karaoke that night...was another great trip to arkansas and the friendly people who live there...can't get any nicer than memike! We also drove out to George Ray's Dragstrip. I had met him just shortly before he passed away.



Looking forward to seeing dusterforever again tomorrow :happy10:
