Keith; ...but if theres say maybe 10-15 different msgs on a given
subject over a period of quite a few days, that's when it gets
confusing-even if the "subject line" remains the same que-pasa? I.E. "WHO
came first"?
In regard to printing the stuff out; why it just seems natural to me to be
able to put it in a file in my shop to be consulted at any time (during a
late nite brain bash with others for example) ...and to give copies to
other racers who for one reason or another have not joined the list.
My pal in Maine, "Sam the Original Hot Rod Junkie" comes to mind as he is
computer illerate and is starting a '34 Bonneville 'Coupe and could readily
use this most current info on cooling!
BTW Keith, your name came up in conversation last Sat. with him regarding
race tires.... I've a brand new set of 28" x 15 Goodyear frontrunners that
he thought he could use, but decided against because of special "wide five"
wheel requirements for his specific application with a stockcar type
quickchange and body clearance. (he did'nt think he could get "wide fives"
made in a 5" width.....)
-Still got the tires if anyone is interested.... they're brand new.
