It's a grueling three way speed contest between Doug's car, Blykins' FE engine, and peace in the Middle East. Personally, I'm betting on peace in the Middle East to come in first.

I feel bad since I was the one who started this whole effort, but it is out of my hands now and I have said too much already in earlier posts in my normal blunt manner.

I think you would feel better if you continued to speak candidly about your concerns over the timeliness of this build. Now is not the time to "hold your tongue."

If I felt that running my mouth at the expense of being the bad guy/asshole would help, I would do it gladely but my words or anyones words are just that, . . . words with no ownership or authority over the core aspects of the holdup.

My wife said that I was too young to retire (WTF!!!!) so I am working again and can't go work on Doug's car. But here is an idea. Maybe there is a group of us here who 1) have the time and 2) have the means to go where the car is for a week to pull together and GET IT DONE for Doug. Just a thought. Easy to say, not as easy to do.

We all donated MONEY and PARTS. For those who have the time and ability to go where the car is, it could be a fun, rewarding activity if they could donate TIME all in the interest of helping a fellow Cobra enthusiast. It could be a good time meeting fellow Club Cobra members all working together for a great cause!


Thoughts????

As I understand it, Pentwater Michigan. Just south of the North Pole.
