I haven't started the Escort yet today, may have to later on to make sure it doesn't go dead. It is still 5 below here, doesn't look like it will get much warmer than near zero today.

I found out today from Oscar of HID Guy that I got yet another wrong harness. He is sending me the right one and then I will swap the wiring again, that should correct the problem. He called me today and we straightened it all out, no problem. Great guy to deal with, I still would buy from him again.

Hey Justin,

Went to dinner with some friends this evening - car thermometer showed 1 degree. Colder than a well digger's hiney.

I watched it Darrell. They sure were tearing up some sheet metal. Doesn't look like the stock brakes are much good at all at least on the track. Failed very easily.

Man it's a balmy 74 degrees here. Yea Scott lots of bad drivers with too much money in that series. Little boys with their little toys. Hell I could crash as good or better than some of them.
