Well i took 5 days off work to go to the shootout, but i kinda lost the drive to go and money to boot, Doing work on the house sounded more pleasing.
I epoxyshield coated the floor tan with chips and layed a clear coat on it for extra protection.
Sam should hopefully be painting the downstairs Bathroom on sunday.

Also should make the track tomorrow, just need to put on new air filter and new set of tires 235/45/17 pirelli P6 all seasons instead of 205/50/17 BFG KDWs.

Also make the hooters meet, bday party, RKC BBQ/party.

Pics of the floor.

Now i just have to wait for it to cure, says 24 hours before light foot traffic and 5 days for a full cure, i am gonna wait till next saturday to move everything back inside, hopefully minus the pop machine.
I am also gonna try and patch the walls this week after work and put some primer on the walls, but i have to get more money to get materials to do the edges of the drywall.

I thought the shootout was this weekend?

Anyway, my car would outclass everything else there, so I didn't want to break anymore hearts than I already have.

Or I just can't afford it, don't care enough, don't even have a running car, etc. lol. pick your choice.

G54B for life! 2.6 liters of forklift and truck driving torque.

More of the same, wasn't going to the shootout anyways.

Might put my light battery in my car. Defiantly going to fix the coolant leak that popped up.
