a sticky...
hey, Bernie! a "sticky" is a thread meant to "stay at the top" of the forum. Like an upcoming show needs to be a "sticky" so people will remember about it. If you look at TCC, there are several stickies at the top, kinda like advertisements for events.
about the pipes. After trip to Europe, have been getting ready for school, and getting 4 kids prepared is a full time job! So, school started last week, and I can finally breathe for a minute. The dilemma is this: KC racing (where serviced car in June) is recommending re-coating pipes. But probably needs all new pipes, which is double cost of recoating. Quick job using high heat paint will cover unsightly stains from battery acid leaking back at Tulsa, in June. Messy looking. So, need to either repaint for quick, cheap job, recoat for nice look, not as cheap, or bite the big one and get new pipes, as there are some minor wear holes on the underside of one pipe. I know I will get a variety of opinions now that I've posted the situation, but that's good.... so, after next weeks big event I will decide what to do. So, Colleen's show is Sunday, and hopefully I can go without any trouble, but the pipes still look cruddy. Quick fix with paint, then recoat or new ones later. My caretaker has painted them before, and has hooks in garage for the job, but honestly, I just haven't had time to really look into this. And see what I'll owe him for doing it...
