There are. I looked at a plain old white spoke for the trailer and they wanted $75. I remember you could get them things for like $40 all day long new.

I didn't do a whole lot myself. Connected up a wireless doorbell since somewhere along the line it was all pulled out. Button at the front door was still there with a piece of tape with KNOCK on it. Â Â Had a meeting to make sure we have a game plane for next weekend. Going to be a cluster!!!! Last Saturday's Super Chevy day and all the events was moved to this next Saturday due to all the rain. Right now as it looks we are looking at 9 programs running Saturday. Â Â Â Sunday should be a normal day. Â We hope. Â This morning on channel 3 they were saying 30% chance of rain for here both Saturday and Sunday.

Weather looks to be a little iffy but we will get in what we can and go from there. We will be heading out about 11:30 this morning to get there and drop the trailer when the gates open at 3 this afternoon to get our spot. We got the run order and there are 14 different class's running with the Wester Fuel Alterd's running through out the day. Have a feeling it's going to be a late night Saturday.

MAN!!!! What a weekend we had. There were 15 categories that ran on Saturday alone. Plus Western Fuel Alterds. The pits were full to say the least. Winds were out of control all day!!!!! But everyone ran 1/4 mile. Buddy with the Vega just had to qualify and locked the point series down. And he did. We had 20 cars in our .05 light class and 8 in our .05 light class. Winner in the .05 group was a new comer that was all over the tree and on his index all day. Our .04 group was the owner of the '58 Deltray. But he was running his 10:50 '70 Chevelle Last pair ran about 11pm Saturday night and we got about 3 hours sleep and back at the track Early Sunday morning. We combined everyone and let them pick their own index's then we paired them up. Got first round of eliminations in, about to get second in and the rain started about 3pm. there was no sign of it stopping so the track shut everyone down. We packed up and headed home. Stopped to warm up, dry off and get something to eat first.
All in All it was a good time. I can do with out the wind for a few days as we were wind and sun burn. Our first race for next season is Jan 5th at Wild Pony Pass. Not sure who all will be there. We do know ADRA will not be there.

Got home yesterday afternoon and needed to hit the yard with the mower. Went to get the mower and it was raining. went back in and hit the couch. Few minutes later the power went out. SO hung out in the garage and watched it rain and the lightning. 2 hours later the power came back on and the rain was finally letting up. To late to mow and to wet. I can hear the grass growing and it's WAAAYYY out of control!!! In just the last 3 weeks with all this weather, The front yard is just about all filled in exept were the stump is. Back yard is filling as well. I wasn't going to do much until next spring in the back. I guess Ma Nature has different plans.

The side area where I don't want anything to grow is totally green with weeds and grass coming back. This is where I want to concrete for boat parking.

Other than digging the place up, I don't think there's anything you can do to get rid of weeds and $hit, anything you put on them just puts them dormant until first rain, then they're straight up at attention.

Got the boat back yesterday, it now has 4 stringers and the bottom is 5/8" thick, tanks are mounted and sub floors are done, and dash and transom are plugged up, almost looks like a brand new boat. Now the fun begins. Biggest challenge now will be to flip it over.
