This Week's Progress

Traci and I have been focussing on getting the trailer ready for racing season. We have been sewing a new awning for the trailer. We are about half way done and it is looking nice. The one that came with the trailer is a funky green and color and when combined with Clifford (The Big Red Truck) it looks like a bad Christmas decoration, ha!

The awning is 50 foot long and 14 feet wide so it is a lot of cloth to sew. We hope we can get it ready in time for the bracket race on February 23 in Baytown.

Progress on "The Black Hole" is still happening but has slowed a bit to get ready to race the "Blue Banana".

Parts that I have been waiting for have been slowly arriving. I have been waiting on the carbon fiber brakes for over two months. They are amazingly light weight. Each rear rotor only weighs about 1 1/2 pounds. It is amazing that something this light weight and fragile looking can stop a 260 mph car in several hundred feet without destroying themselves.

We are still waiting on some cabinets for the trailer so we can finish it up.

Still lots of stuff to do. Who said pursuing dreams was easy? If it were easy, everyone would be doing it! Traci and I are truly blessed!
