Good news.  We've been blessed with warm weather this month.  I think that's all about to change.  When do they shut down for the year?......Cliff

Cliff that was their last Wed and the Halloween Classic was last weekend. I think I'm gonna run the Camino down at pacemakers on the 28th and that will be it for this year. I think I'm gonna pull the motor this winter and look it over and do some head work. I built it 12 yrs ago and haven't even pulled a rocker cover since lol.

I didn't make it to Pacemakers this season, or anywhere else.  Need to pull the engine in the Ventura for a freshen-up first.....Cliff
