Good morning, Gris. Pretty day here to start, will head up to 80 for the rest of the week. They're supposed to get my office moved (again) this week, but at this point I think it's all a scam. Nothing has been touched. More peaceful here anyway.

Press Release:


CORVETTE RACING AT PETIT LE MANS: Titles and Podiums!

GTD PRO championships and podiums plus Akin Award for AWA in IMSA finale

 
BRASELTON, Ga. (October 11, 2025) – Corvette Racing by Pratt Miller Motorsports capped an incredible day at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta with a pair of podium finishes to go along with a GTD PRO championship sweep at the 10-hour Petit Le Mans on Saturday.

Tommy Milner, Nicky Catsburg and Nico Varrone placed second in class with their No. 4 Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R, just ahead of the GTD PRO Drivers Championship pairing of Antonio Garcia and Alexander Sims plus Daniel Juncadella in the No. 3 Corvette.


It marked the first double-podium for the Pratt Miller Corvette squad since 2008. The result didn’t just secure the class Drivers Championship but also the Manufacturers Championship for Chevrolet and the Teams’ title for the No. 3 Corvette Racing by Pratt Miller Motorsports group.


The No. 4 Corvette raced back into contention following an early-race bad break when Catsburg had to stop for a splash of fuel when the pits were closed under a full-course yellow. He stopped a couple of laps later still under yellow and handed off to Milner, who stopped again a lap later behind the safety car for a top-off and what the team hoped would be a fuel advantage later in the race.


It came to fruition after Milner’s stint as Varrone cycled through to the lead during a long green-flag run past the halfway point. More caution-free laps helped the No. 4 Corvette’s cause as Catsburg drove the final two hours to the finish.


On the No. 3 Corvette side, the focus was to finish ahead of the No. 81 Ferrari – the closest competitor for the class championship. Garcia began eighth but couldn’t gain much ground on the No. 81 given nearly 30 minutes of full-course yellow in the race.
 

Garcia drove the first three hours and handed over to Sims with the Corvette in the top-five but still behind the Ferrari. That changed just after the four-hour mark when the No. 3 Corvette team got Sims in and out of the pitlane quicker than their championship rivals. The two cars ran close together for the next two-and-a-half hours before the Corvette moved ahead for good with three hours to go.


In GTD, AWA celebrated winning both the season-long Bob Akin Award and taking the race’s Akin trophy with the No. 13 Corvette Z06 GT3.R as the highest-finishing GTD car with a Bronze-rated driver. Orey Fidani, who teamed with Matt Bell and Lars Kern, won his second straight Akin championship and a return trip to next year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans.
 

The trio finished ninth in class after starting 19th to cap a season that began with a class victory in the Rolex 24 At Daytona.
 

DXDT Racing’s trio of Charlie Eastwood, Alec Udell and Salih Yoluc likewise raced through the field to finish seventh in GTD. Their No. 36 Corvette began 17th but Yoluc drove a triple-stint at the front – same as Fidani – to open up the strategy options. Udell and Eastwood split the mid-race driving before Eastwood went to the end and wrapped up the team’s first season in IMSA.


CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R POST-RACE DRIVER QUOTES

ANTONIO GARCIA, NO. 3 CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "This was really tight. I would have liked a more relaxed fight with not around 10 points between us! It was a very tight race. We turned things around between qualifying and now. I knew the car was there since Lap One. We just needed to stay focused and keep getting places. We didn't have the pace to pass people on track, but we did a fantastic job... saving fuel, doing everything right, gaining positions and taking every opportunity where we could. So six championships! It's a group effort. That doesn't happen without Corvette Racing and all the teammates I've had over the past 16 years."


ALEXANDER SIMS, NO. 3 CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "It's incredibly intense here at Petit Le Mans every single time I do it. But it's so thrilling. The track is just amazing... such a nice sequence of corners and so many cars means that all the traffic keeps you on your toes. Our Corvette was working well all day and all season. We've had a phenomenal year. Pratt Miller has executed a fantastic championship.  

We optimized pretty much everything we could every single time. Full credit to the whole team. Amazing to do it with Antonio and Dani. We had a good year last year finishing third in the championship. To go to first place this year is absolutely phenomenal."


DANIEL JUNCADELLA, NO. 3 CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "This is mega. I've only been a small part of this season. But it's nice to play a role in the last race. It's a big race for everybody. Finishing on the podium and helping these guys clinch a championship was the big goal. It's been great to be a part of that."


TOMMY MILNER, NO. 4 CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "It's a great day for Corvette Racing, Pratt Miller and Chevy. It went about as well as it could have for us. I'm super happy for Antonio and Alex, and Dani as well helping with that. Those guys were basically perfect all year long. That's what it takes in this championship. Congrats to those guys. It's a whole team effort, though. You look at it and all the 4 car guys celebrate it just as much as the 3 car guys. It's a great morale booster for everyone. For us, the race today was good. P2 was about as good as it was going to get for us. The BMW had a little too much pace on us. But overall a really great day."


NICKY CATSBURG, NO. 4 CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "We achieved everything we wanted to achieve. It would have been great to finally have a Petit win but the BMW was one size too big for us today. I had some really cool and clean fights with Dan Harper. I'm very pleased with the job that the team did. We had a cool season. We won everything we wanted as a team. So I'm looking forward to next year already."


NICO VARRONE, NO. 4 CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "This was a great weekend for everyone. I was really looking forward to coming here and racing again with Corvette. This is like a family for me. Finishing with both cars on the podium is great. We had a great race for P2 and had great pace. Not enough to fight with the BMW, but we executed well and maximized our potential. A big thank you to all the team and all the crew. Our Corvette was really flying. Tommy and Nicky did a great job as always in setting up the car. It was super-fast in the race. Overall this is a great day for Corvette, Chevy and the team. Sure we wanted to win the race but today it wasn't possible so we're happy to finish second. Hopefully next year we can finish in a better spot."


MATT BELL, NO. 13 CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "Fantastic end of the season for AWA. I’m really proud to be heading back to France. That was our goal coming into this year and this race. It was a shame for the No. 70 that they were taken out of contention the way they were; they’ve been great competitors all season and we have huge respect for each other, and we wanted to go toe to toe all the way to the end. But of course we wanted to go back to France, so I’m super happy about achieving that. It was a really good race and we had really good pace. It was a nice way to finish with the top-10 and now I guess I need to learn a bit of French!”


OREY FIDANI, NO. 13 CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: “I couldn’t be happier or more proud of the way we performed this season. We knew from the get-go that we wanted to go back to Le Mans, and we knew we would have to work incredibly hard to achieve it, but that’s exactly what we set out to do. We all have an immense amount of respect for everyone at Inception Racing, and we had a great time going up against them this season. I’m thrilled that we’re going back to France, and now with some extra knowledge and experience on our side, we’ll be ready to put up a good fight with Chevy.”


LARS KERN, NO. 13 CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "Winning the Bob Akin Award is a great way to end the season. We worked for this all year. Though it’s not the way we wanted to win it. We always said we wanted to win it on track. I feel really sorry for the No. 70 car and the whole Inception Racing group.

"We went all-in in the race and had a great time. We needed a full-course yellow within the last five hours, but there wasn't any, which was a testament to the clean racing. It was good racing, but in the end, we were just always running behind the gap. I am really happy for Orey and the team. We are going back to Le Mans, which was the target of the season. We’ll finish on the podium of this race next year!

Morning guys... cooler this morning. Highs today of the low 60s.

I might try to install the vanities at the church today, depending on whether the other workers are done or not.

Not much more on the agenda.

Good morning. We are nearing the end of rainy season here in the tropics. Got my new Windows 11 computer up and running but I have to load all my old favorites and make some personal adjustments like screen saver application. PITA. Had to pull the plug to start it up this morning. Seems faster than my old Windows 10 computer but it's 10 years newer so I expect it should be faster. This new computer is more than I need but better to have too much than too little. At least, that's what she said.

I’m just now getting in some .i keep getting the “invalid submission/exceeded session time” message otherwise and it won’t post. Hope everyone had a good day. Was beautiful out today, ran some errands and were out back with a fire and drinks, moon and stars are beautiful.moon meets the seven sisters tonight

Hey guys, I'm guessing the site has been down today as there's no chat started until now 10:20pm? Tried a couple times yesterday but kept getting error messages.

Today is Leos' birthday.

We went to the high school football game this evening, well, that's what they were calling it. We left at half time with the local boys behind 58-0. I'd seen enough.

Didn't do a lot today, went out and pedaled Knights of Columbus Tootsie Rolls. An annual fundraiser for handicapped citizens.

Tomorrow is our home Cross Country meet. I volunteered to help out, so will be out there by 8:15am... should be done by noon.

Next time you need something like that, let me know. I can have Arron look up the part for you and see if there are options, lower pricing and so on.

these are good days to drive a Vette here also... I have just went to get the last small hose that goes from the PS reserve to the PS pump. it is a small rubber hose with a 45 degree angle in it and 2 clamps. Probably 4 or 5" long.... got it from GM and went to pick it up and they said $49.99... I said that cannot be... look at this part....that maybe $20 to 25 dollars worth... but I will do something else....I had no idea..... So I finally beat them down to $37 bucks which was barely tolerable.... the whole thing has gone nuts...they are taking all the fun out of it.

sunshine and breezy.... better go put on that rubber hose that thinks its made out of gold..... put on some parts Guru's

Good morning Gris, yes, slow for me also. Wouldn't let me in, even with login, then I backed out and came back and then I didn't need to log in. Then I posted and got "site unavailable, come back soon" , then invalid submission etc. Keep getting security issues and site unsafe warnings. Beautiful day here today, 80 for the high but it was actually jacket weather when I left the house earlier. Got some store branding stuff to work on for us here today, for her here in Tint and and get a game plan together for me when I get moved into new office across street. I'm redoing her outside windows here, and possibly inside for her. I have some plans up my sleeve for over at my new shop as well if owner will stay out of my business lol . He needs to stay in work bay, run printer and worry about that. I'll handle the image stuff lol Would've been a good day to drive the vette but it's of course, out of gas and dusty. Maybe if I get out tomorrow I'll take the top off and cruise.

Weather perfect here also.... I'm soaking it up because you know..... I have been cleaning up and starting to clean out... so much stuff we have accumulated over the years... rooms full of stuff.... its important stuff though, stuff from my family and her family.... the kids might want some of it.... I don't really know what to do with it..... Like my Dad's old WWII uniform.... how can I throw that away.... I guess we have to leave those things to the next gen they will not have the emotional attachment that we do....

time to clean out Guru's

Hey guys, I got the vanities finished up as bob, the builder, (sounds like that could be a good childrens show name) finished painting at the sherriffs dept, then went over there and spent the rest of the day installing the last of the cabinets there. I'll go back tomorrow and do the Library ladder system hardware.

I love that Change the World song.
The tint shop will remain here, we were leasing three suites. One was a garage stall only, previously used as wrap bay. The middle was office front with tint back, there as a "pass through room" near the middle, then my suite over here which was a lobby, three offices, kichen/bath and one more open room in the back. We had half the building. The coffee guy next to us has done well and expanded and franchised now and he bought the entire building earlier this year. He will make his half his corporate offices and merch location. Tint will stay here another couple years then not sure where they will go as I think Larry wants to end up with the whole building. He tried to get the owner, John to go in halfs on a new shop next door so he could have all this, prob half a mil worth and he wouldn't do it. Which was dumb, he could have tripled his money in no time here. He ended up leasing two high bay shops across the street, kinda in a weird, hard to find spot, then gutted,tore out a wall for install bay, made me an office, etc. He also was leasing one unit on the opposite end of it, and there's a body guy working out of the other two in the middle. John eventually wants all five, till he's 62 then he will sell out to his partner, Ron who also has a body shop around the corner from here. I may go back to school and get out of it alltogether. Sick of it and ready for something new.

So VB are they going to keep the old building also? Heck just stay where you are if they do.... then you can hide out if you want to.... Tommy with some fairly meaningful music today... a lot more than the surf and drag hits I was going to put up....

big rain yesterday....2 1/2" here. Today is a perfect 65 degree day with blue sky and sunshine... I am always happier when the sun shines.... why is that?

keep the fire burning Guru's

Press Release:

CORVETTE RACING AT PETIT LE MANS: Title Time!

GTD PRO, GTD honors on the line in IMSA season-finale at Road Atlanta
 

DETROIT (October 7, 2025) – It’s Championship Weekend for Corvette Racing and its Chevrolet Corvette Z06 GT3.R teams. The Corvette GT3 program has plenty to race for Saturday in both the GTD PRO and GTD classes at the 10-hour Petit Le Mans at Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta.


This year’s running is the 28th annual race and again serves as the finale for the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship. Four Corvette Z06 GT3.Rs dot the 53-car entry list with two each in the GT classes.

As a program, Corvette Racing has raced at the 2.54-mile, 12-turn Road Atlanta circuit every year since 1999 with eight Petit Le Mans victories.. but none since 2010.


Part of that is down to Corvettes routinely being in championship contention whenever the race rolls around.


This year could prove different with narrow points leads for Corvette Racing by Pratt Miller Motorsports in GTD PRO and AWA in the GTD Akin Award standings…


Corvette Racing by Pratt Miller Motorsports (GTD PRO)

·     No. 3 Corvette Z06 GT3.R: Antonio Garcia/Alexander Sims/Daniel Juncadella

·     No. 4 Corvette Z06 GT3.R: Tommy Milner/Nicky Catsburg/Nico Varrone


A positive result at Petit Le Mans will add to the already-impressive Corvette Racing honor roll in IMSA GT competition: a 15th Manufacturers Championship for Chevrolet, a 15th Drivers Championship and a 16th Teams Championship for Corvette Racing by Pratt Miller Motorsports.


The scenario is pretty simple. Garcia and Sims – who will team with Juncadella – lead the GTD PRO Drivers standings by 18 points with 385 total points available; the points difference between first and second is 30 points, it’s 20 points per position from second place to fifth place and 10 points between the remaining spots. The most likely scenario is that the highest-finishing entry between the No. 3 Corvette Z06 GT3.R and the No. 81 Ferrari will take the Drivers and Teams titles.
 

In the Manufacturers race, Chevrolet enjoys a 46-point lead heading into Petit Le Mans. Both Pratt Miller-run Corvettes can contribute to the points haul at Road Atlanta, so stakes also are high for the No. 4 Corvette of Milner, Catsburg and Varrone. A second podium finish would go a long way toward securing Team Chevy another full-season championship.


AWA (GTD)

·     No. 13 Corvette Z06 GT3.R: Matt Bell/Orey Fidani/Lars Kern


The AWA team’s situation is even more straight-forward than the No. 3 Corvette. At stake for Fidani and the No. 13 Z06 GT3.R is a second straight Bob Akin Award championship and the return trip to the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2026.


Fidani is tied for the lead in the Akin Award standings, which rewards the highest points-scoring Bronze driver in the GTD class. AWA seized the lead at the start of this season thanks to a victory at the Rolex 24 At Daytona for Fidani, Bell and Kern, and the lead has gone back and forth in the second half of the year.


Long-distance races have been a strong point for the AWA trio as the No. 13 Corvette has contended for wins and podium finishes in the other four endurance races on the IMSA calendar.


DXDT Racing (GTD)

·     No. 36 Corvette Z06 GT3.R: Charlie Eastwood/Alec Udell/Salih Yoluc


DXDT Racing has high hopes entering the final race of its debut season in the WeatherTech Championship. Like the AWA lineup, the trio of Charlie Eastwood, Alec Udell and Salih Yoluc tested at Road Atlanta in mid-September to gear up for DXDT’s first crack at Petit Le Mans.


Between the three drivers, both Udell and Yoluc have one start each in Petit Le Mans while Eastwood will make his Road Atlanta debut. Despite that and in their first season as a trio, they have contended for multiple race wins in the long-distance events this year including leading in GTD late at both Sebring and Watkins Glen.


Petit Le Mans is the first of two consecutive season finales for DXDT Racing with the Corvette Z06 GT3.R. It will race for the GT World Challenge America Pro-Am title next week in the Indianapolis Eight Hours.
 

The 10-hour Petit Le Mans is scheduled for 12:10 p.m. ET on Saturday, October 11. The race will air live on NBC from noon to 3 p.m. ET and with live streaming on Peacock in the United States and IMSA.com outside the U.S. from noon to 10:10 p.m. ET. IMSA Radio will provide the audio call at IMSA.com, XM 206 and SiriusXM Online 996



CORVETTE RACING BY PRATT MILLER MOTORSPORTS PRE-EVENT DRIVER QUOTES

ANTONIO GARCIA, NO. 3 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: “We know what we need to do now to win the championship for us, Corvette Racing and Chevrolet. We definitely will have to race our Corvette hard as there won’t be an opportunity for us to ease off with such a small points gap. We just need to continue doing the same things we have been doing for many years now – execute, make no mistakes and be on top of the strategy. That’s been the key to many of the race wins and championships that Corvette Racing has achieved. While I still really want to finally win this race, I want to win my sixth championship more!”


ALEXANDER SIMS, NO. 3 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "It feels like the entire championship happens in this one race. Lots and lots of things go on that throw the championship battles in one direction or the other throughout. It's a phenomenal track to drive. It's got some great undulation and quick flowing corners. There are parts of the track where the speed differential is quite great, so the GTPs are always chomping at the bit to overtake on the outside. That creates some sketchy race moments, to be honest.

"This is going to be a crazy race. It always is at Petit Le Mans. All sorts of mayhem can happen. We want to try to optimize our package as absolutely as best as we possibly can to see if we can extract a bit more pace than what we had at Indianapolis.”


DANIEL JUNCADELLA, NO. 3 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "Road Atlanta is a big highlight to finish off the IMSA season. It's been awhile for me not to be in that championship and with Pratt Miller. I'm excited for that one. It's an amazing racetrack and one of my favorites in the U.S. I got to win that race back in 2023 and will be back with Antonio and Alex. Antonio, even though he's a legend in the States, hasn't won that race yet so hopefully we can finish the season on a high with a win there."


TOMMY MILNER, NO. 4 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "Ultimately for the 3 Corvette guys and for us in the 4, championships are the talk. While the Drivers Championship for us is out of reach, we can certainly help Antonio and Alexander, but obviously the Manufacturers Championship is the No. 1 goal. Whether the 3 car guys have a good race or a bad race, we also need to be performing at the highest level we can so we are as far forward as possible. I'd love to be able to take as many points away from the other manufacturers. The more Corvettes we have up front, the better that is for the championship. As we know at Petit Le Mans, anything can happen the later it gets so it's about ultimately executing as well as we possibly can. As drivers, we lean on our experience to guide us through challenging situations. The same goes for the crew and the team. We're in a good position. We just need to continue to execute at a high level."


NICKY CATSBURG, NO. 4 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: “Petit Le Mans is a very big and very important race every year and this year is no different. We saw a little bit at Indianapolis how crazy the traffic can be and how easy it is to have contact that can alter your race. So we need to be mindful of that as there is still a lot to race for – my first Petit Le Mans win, the first for the team in many years and the Manufacturers Championship as well as helping Antonio and Alex in the Drivers Championship. It’s going to be a busy and hectic race. I can’t wait for it.”


NICO VARRONE, NO. 4 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: “I’m super happy to be back in the No. 4 Corvette for Petit Le Mans. For me it’s an honor. I feel really at home with the team. It’s exciting for us to be able to fight for the Manufacturers Championship. The guys have done a great job during the year to be in this position. We also have the possibility for the No. 3 Corvette to win the Drivers and Teams championships. For sure those are the two most important things that we will try to achieve in this last race.

“I’m excited to be back with Tommy and Nicky and Tyler (Neff, race engineer). I think we make a super lineup. We will try to achieve all our goals and do our best to win the race. This is such a unique race with a lot of history and everyone wants to win. I can’t wait to be back in it and start working with the team again.”


AWA PRE-EVENT DRIVER QUOTES

MATT BELL, NO. 13 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: “It's a slightly different picture to last year where we just had to start the race in order to get our ticket to Le Mans. This year we've got to finish ahead of the No. 70. It's been a real back and forth competition all season. Some races definitely have gone in our favor, some in theirs, and it's ended up where we are tied going into the last race. We enjoy competing against each other. I think there's a good relationship between the two teams, but both of us want to go to Le Mans, and only one of us can win the invite.

"This is always a fascinating race with multiple championship battles up for grabs, which probably makes this, in my opinion, the hardest sports car race in the world when you throw in the traffic, the length of the track and the amount of cars out there with everything on the line. So we'll have our little battle in the middle of it all, and see how we get on.”


OREY FIDANI, NO. 13 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "The Bob Akin Award has been a goal for us all year. Heading into Petit Le Mans tied at the top of the standings shows how strong our program has been, but the job isn’t done yet. Matt, Lars and the entire AWA crew have worked tirelessly to put us in this position, and now it’s about executing one last time. Winning the award and earning a return to Le Mans would be an incredible way to finish the season."


LARS KERN, NO. 13 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "Last race of the year, full send! I can’t wait to wrap up this amazing season on a high note and give both AWA and Team Chevy what they deserve. We haven’t had a single team penalty or car failure all season long, which is magnificent and rare in endurance racing. It's a testament to the top-tier work everyone has been putting in all year, and I know we have the potential to do something big and achieve what we're setting out to accomplish."


DXDT RACING PRE-EVENT DRIVER QUOTES

CHARLIE EASTWOOD, NO. 36 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: “I’ve never done Petit Le Mans and did my first two-day test at Road Atlanta about a month ago. It was a really cool experience. The track is unbelievable. I’ve done a fair bit on the sim in the past but when you are there you realize how steep the undulations are on the track. It’s a great circuit to drive in the Corvette, especially that first sector through Turn Five. It’s very fast and right on the edge. I’m looking forward to it. This is always a race I’ve wanted to do for quite a few years now. It looks like a really tricky race going into the night with almost 60 cars on a pretty short lap. Things will be really packed up but it’s just another element to the race.

“We’ve been super unlucky this year not getting the results we’ve wanted this year. For the whole DXDT Racing team, I hope we can get a solid result to finish out the year on a high. All the team have put in some much work but haven’t had the trophies to show for it. We’ll be going hard to make sure we finish the season getting them a trophy.”


ALEC UDELL, NO. 36 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: “Coming into the last IMSA race of the season, it’s a bittersweet feeling. On one hand, we’ve had a very strong team, great performances and execution. For a first-year team, I’m extremely proud of everyone’s efforts. On the other, we are missing that result and one of our team members still. As we go into Road Atlanta, it’s the last opportunity to bring everything together. We’re all gunning for that podium and that breakthrough result to give the hard-working guys and gals at DXDT Racing the satisfaction for all the effort through the year. Our hearts are still with Colten and it’s good to see him making progress in his recovery. I’m excited to get on-track with our Z06 GT3.R and show what we can do.”


SALIH YOLUC, NO. 36 CHEVROLET CORVETTE Z06 GT3.R: "Testing at Road Atlanta was beneficial. This is going to be a really busy race as we saw at Indianapolis. The biggest challenge that everyone will face is getting to the final two or three hours and in the dark. I think we have a good chance to do that based on the testing we did there last month. There was a lot we can take from that and Indianapolis to give us the best chance of success at Petit Le Mans.”

The more things change the more they remain the same till the solar system gets sucked into the big black hole, it explodes, and we start all over again.

If you could would you like to live 1000 years?

Good morning,
still raining here, might off and on all day, rained quite a bit yesterday and last night. We needed it, but it would be more helpful spread out over the summer instead of a 3 month drought. Guys still haven't moved my office stuff across the street, so I'm still over here in the old building with the tint crew. Kinda thinking I'd just as soon stay here, it's more peaceful and less drama, sans the occasional day, like this morning when there's folks in the lobby on my side with a screaming ass kid. 3.2 hours of sleep all together last night is already making for me an irritable self. Make it a great day yall

Hey guys, Left early to take GGD back. We will not get her again until November 3. Will be tough for us.

Got home and hauled the last of the cabinets up to the sheriffs office. Hopefully tomorrow I will get those installed. I then picked up Father Peter and we went over to the church. the next town over, to do some tear out of some paneling so so repair work can be done.

I don't know what kind of fuel was put in it last. But I thing getting it out is the best way. Then put in some fresh top tier 91 and try to get it started. appreciate the info...

Good morning, raining and cool here, have the doors open for some fresh air, will get some housework done and that will be it for me. Nothing done here this weekend, we were both still tired from vaca and the drive home plus work I think and we just really sat around all weekend. We did get out some Saturday to hit a couple junk stores and what not and that was it. Rain might give way to a nap for me later after Arron comes home for lunch and goes back to work.
For the C5 draining, figure out which end you want the old fuel to come from, up from the rails or out back below. Also, does the fuel contain Ethanol? That makes a difference. If you don't mind driving it, inspect best you can and determine if there's no contamination, then top off and go. If you are unsure, either connect at fuel rail, then let fuel pumps do the work for you. Again, if there is contamination you may need to tend to filters and injectors.

I often wonder how much I could get done if I could work uninterupted. The 8th wonder of the world.

Howdy there.....kinda cloudy kinda sunny.... warm though... got a lot done on the C5.... starting to look like a real engine bay.... got one more hose coming and get the PS pulley back on and then..... then what?

So here is my dilemma, there is a half tank of fuel that has been there for 7 years..... my idea is put fresh in on top and some Sea Foam and try and get it running. It probably needs drained but how would that work on these dual tank cars? I am open for suggestions.....

be open to suggestions Guru's

Morning guys... Was up early yesterday and off to the 'city', as Rosie, #2 and Leo were running/walking in the local Cancer centers 5k. 900 runners/joggers/walkers. Leo finished 4th, #2 finished 375-Jogging/walking and Rosie finished 415, walking all the way. I got a new camera lens on Tuesday, so I took it with me to try it out at the 5K...Love it.

Take GGD back tomorrow, will miss her.

Yeah I like that song also.... got some parts in from Chevy ...good old AC Delco... belts and bolts and a radiator hose.... it's stupid money for those things these days.... half of what I paid would have been to much... I always like AC Delco parts though..... probably still made in China though....

Harvest in full swing as I see some corn starting to come out.... late season Southern Rust moved in late again this year and shut the plant down early. That will take some off the top end of the yields.

Keep moving Guru's
