Sometimes I feel like all I do is change engines on these Jr's! We got Amanda's Huddleston Performance engine back last night, with the fancy billet cylinder head [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]



Now that it is punched out, has a new piston &amp; rod, along with the new head - the clutch setup will be a bit different. So, it's back to dialing in another combo, you would think I would eventually get good at this..... maybe, some day.. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/eek.gif[/img]

The new powerplant:

Planning to have Amanda's first run on her 8th birthday, July 6th. So, we have commenced 'The Training'! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img]

We got her suited up, situated on a pillow with another pillow behind her:



All belted in, ready for the Safety Drills: main switch, override switch, seat belt release and steering wheel release - blindfolded! She was a very quick study, even with Benjamin 'helping'!



A sibling effort:

Heard a great quote this past week, seems to fit perfectly:

&quot; The days are long, but years fly by &quot;

[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] Isn't that the truth, Benjamin graduated this morning, and is headed to Middle School - where did it go?



Back to Amanda - she wants to the next Training Session to be with the car running, instead of me pushing it (so she can learn brake pedal pressure...) [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
