I did have the second hour. It was scrambled in the titles. The Dish controls do not hold a candle to the AT&T cable system but the picture is a lot better.

I saw here have to drive through the tires. JJ is a nut of the highest order.

I am amazed that Mustang Mike did not shut his car down about 100 ft into that insanity. Totally froze. And who parks there car mid track at a street race....

I looked up the new Murder Nova last night. He may have something for the chief.

We will be making one for the rear I think if he gets all the stuff figured out to space the torque converter. I figured we would just make the spacers but he wants to research it 1st.
Cool. Gives me a break.
