Okay, it's been about a year since people got together to talk smack and punt each other off the track. What's the deal? Let's get this going!

I'd love to, now that I got my new computer up and running... but I'll be flagging ALMS at Sears this weekend.

Perhaps sometime next week?

That may be a nice distraction. However, the power supply went to hell on my home 'puter last week. The new one's supposed to arrive today, so if I get it runnin before Friday I'll let ya know.

You know... just so I can kick yer ***! :D

Hmph. And, right on cue, in chimes Mr. "Since I got my arse handed to me the last time and my computer was broken for every race after that, I won't be able to play with the Big Boyz".

I just wish it had been me that was handing out the arses...

Um... lessee.

This sounds quite a bit like a cop-out on my part, but it's true. Got the home 'puter back home, hooked it up, and booted it up. It works! This is my first post from home since mid-last week. After chillin a bit, I decide to start up GPL... then I look at my wheel. No LED lights whatsoever. I gots no wheelpower! Whatever knocked out my power supply evidently did in my wheel as well.

Luckily I have an old wheel with the same powerpack converter up in the attic. I'll see if I can dig it up later tonight, and hopefully she'll fly. If not, I may be screwed for a while, since the upcoming races didn't leave money for a new wheel in their budget. Guess I'll letcha know tomorry...

Dood, you should spend $70 on an Uninterrupted Power Supply, it regulates the voltage and is better than a standard surge protector. That absolutely SUCKS that you have to dip into the beer money for a new wheel.

Sorry. I was at the local drag races Friday. Most of this week is good for me to run GPL. Don't let this thread die.

OK! I saved up my $$$$, and as soon as I ain't homeless, (Aug. 15th I get my new digs), I am ready, willing, and able to punt all and sundry into the tall grass.

Call it JT and Warlock! Pt.II :D

Fox, I'm lookin' forward to getting dusted by you guys, and believe it or no, I haven't been in GPL since the last time we was all online, which has to be a year or so ago now. :eek:

Good news is, my new 'puter has a mild cam and an NOS button, so if I can keep the car on track, I should be fast! :D
