Feb 15, 16th.......Uuuuugggghhhhhh

Sick as a dog for the last 2 days.

The old man is making monster progress on getting items ironed out, bulkhead fittings overflow plumbing etc. The stupid little stuff that got put off, but is no longer stupid little stuff but rather "showstoppers" for having us trackside.

Im feeling like Howard Hughes, stuck in a dark hotel room.......ugh. But I escaped for a few minutes to see the old mans progress he had his phone on silent and forgot to turn it back. So I ran down to let him know something.

A BIG item, BIG, Pain in the arse....couldnt find a good option for. The master cyclinder shipped with these use a 1/2-20 inverted flare fitting to come off to go to 3/16 brake line, well.....nasty. Even a call to strange yielded an answer, well to -3 AN, NO that wasnt what I wanted, but I could adapt, but I didnt like it, yesterday another call to Strange yielded the RIGHT answer.

Part number B3359C Summit couldnt "find" the right answer, but you can get it from Jegs , OR for all of like 2.29 (1/2 jegs price) direct from Strange......stupid little part......that SHOULD have come with the damm thing.

So until tommorow.......more feeling like crap, then tommorow.....get the last things ironed out and load the trailer out for Gainesville.
