      Country Corners Discount Tires and Exhaust, it's about 1.5 miles away from the back gate of Eglin, on John Sims Parkway. 850-678-1762. Real nice older gentleman runs the place, I gave him all my exhaust business. Good for tires too!

        Well the brakes started dragging again. So I broke down and bought new cali's. So I figured if I was changing those I'd might as well put new rotors&pads on too. Then I figured if I was going to have off the disks I would put new bearings on too. About $100 later I have a bunch of new fun parts to play with.

                      I'm Back! Well not that anyone probably noticed but my computer was down for a couple weeks (power cord broke). Its ok though gave me sometime to do some organizing of my chaos. Now I just need to clean and shine which I hope to do with this weekend. Its still running good did a little more carb and timing tuning and its making pretty good power now. It will roast the tires though second at about 3/4 throttle. I have yet to stomp on it.
