We got into a thing yesterday, Red needs two new racing tires to go to the track. They wear out. They're not cheap. And that brand, that style, they've been discontinued. We're living in the past again, outdated tires. I ordered the last one available in North America (Minnesota distribution center) from Tire Rack. Unit surfed the net for an hour and found another one somewhere. We've got two tires coming from two different directions. For going 140 mph down the long back straight with the blower at Road Atlanta next month.
We've got no kids, our bills are paid, we can race. Until I retire. One year four months. Then, I don't know, I don't think so. Or just keep working, and I don't want to keep working. I've already got 41 years with the company as of today. I think that's enough.
Dan Stokes is my retirement idol, he still does it all. Land speed and such. I can't get my head around it. A car, a race car especially, is a money pit. You have to feed it. But you have to eat, too. It's....dang we're gonna have fun for a year for sure.
