After helping Jason get the top end back together on the #69 GT6, I finished
the prints for a few parts on the #27 GT6 and sent them out for laser cutting.
Today I am finishing the prep list for the Cheetah and loading it for Road
America next week while watching Jason kick butt on Race Monitor. Tonight I'm
installing a new differential in the Barracuda to begin prepping for The Long
Race at Blackhawk next month. This week we start working on the #27 GT6 for
the same. Think I need a few more projects....
