Thanks man, it is a total blast. Real freedom.

I've been working on getting my Proffessional Products EFI setup. Been a real PITA. I think my top end needs to be rebuilt. So, when I get off the slope, I'll be tearing into it. I have a head bolt stripped (I think I have a warped head), and an engine mount boss stripped out on the driver side. I may end up needing to pull the engine back out altogether. Not happy lol. But, this engine has seen serious abuse. I basically float the valves as my rev limiter. It's been overheated past 300 degrees more times than I can count. I may just buy a new engine for it. Lol

Also, there is a chance that I may move to the Las Vegas area. So, ya never know. I get 2 to 3 weeks off at a time. Maybe I'll haul Pocket Rocket out to wheel with you. Lol

Man I couldn't ever make that move! I want to move to Alaska in the worst way but that would require losing a wife lol! I'd love to have to if you ever had the opportunity tho. I'd get some people together and do a camping /wheeling trip if you ever made it here.

I know man, it sucks. But, life is what it is. Gotta do what's best for my kiddo. Lol. Maybe someday I'll make it that way.
