Nope...I finished schooling and went into Engine Modification and Building..to fully learn those you need some racing back ground..so I pit crewed for a while...

The person who tutored me on my engine ways was an ex-racer who set all kinds of records and has had all kinds of engines outlawed from circle tracks all around and has held several drag titles...he taught another guy as well who actually went into business of building and thats who I pit crewed with...

My teacher made me learn about the full understanding of engines...and fuels and chassis...

When I get into something I have a vast yearning to learn everything about it...I do that with everything in life...

I havent stayed into the mechanic back ground even though I own an auto shop that currently does very little mechanic work...when I want a fix I go to my buddies race shop and build engines...

I do general construction now...I lost interest in cars a while back when one of the guys I sub'd from died after I built his last car...

Ok, to derail the train a bit more- anyone else find it funny to see a gas station running 87 and 89/90 at the same price?
And to re-rail this train a bit- ymeski56, where do you get your fuel? It would seem adding acetone to ~10%ethanol gas would be less than ideal as opposed to regular gasoline. I'm sure that was covered in the article.
