Made it through airport security in about 5 minutes. Accidentally walked through priority boarding…
 
Deoxit didn't do the trick on my integrated amp, should pull the board but pretty sure it's just wiped out (pun intended). Sooo, found a whole bunch of parts on fleabay being sold as a group, put in an offer, kinda dangerous cause the volume pot could be in just as bad of shape but there's a lot of parts (basically all the switches and leds the amp has) so think it's worth it anyway if offer accepted. Did the same thing yesterday on parts for a Motorola 8 track, working on the one Wolfie gave me, that guy ghosted me, sheesh! (people are proud of their "not tested" stuff)
You work on electronics?
 
SpaceX/DOGEE postponed their Falcon 9 launch until Sunday. Sunday will be twice as noisy now. SpaceX at South VSFB and Firefly at North VSFB. I gotta find a map with a scale to find out just how close SLC2 is to my front porch :lol: . SLC2 is in the same area as the Minute Man silos. It's weird, all the security the USAF has out there, AMTRAK runs right through the base :realcrazy:
 
I sent those photos to a old customer of mine. They have a repair shop, mostly diesels and turbochargers. They truck and tractor pull and they have put those 4BT Cummins in a lot of vehicles. They were the "go to guys" for the old 5.7 and then the 6.2 and 6.5 GM diesels. Dean was a wizz at rebuilding the Roosa-Master injection pumps. Great family business and always a fun shop to step into.

was going to get a element 50 extinguisher but watched reviews and think i will get a 2.5lb dry one and pray for the best...
 
Just saw on facebook... Milan (my home track) is grinding and resurfacing the entire track... IHRA isn't messing around there...
 
I suppose you could grind off some of the weight or may be try spacers. I didn't notice much imbalance after I knocked the weights off.
going back to the aluminum slots. cragars will go on the shelf until I replace drums from being worn out or whatever is next. Maybe 5 years from now........................... :lol:
 
Was Milan NHRA?

yeah... not sure when they stopped being NHRA but they are IHRA now.... the owner is doing millions in upgrades.. track is supposed to be 100% smooth now without any dips or issues.. it was always a super nice track though.. new grandstands and other stuff too
