- It was decided after sleep that we fix it and try to goto Maryland after we decided not to take Rosaline
- putting a new head and intake manifold on
- Getting the bugs worked out and dyno pulls in.. Popped head gasket on last pull. We flipped a coin. Ended up loading up Rosaline and fix her at the race track when we get there.
- Stopped for gas in Ferguson, MO
- We got stuck broke down here. Never trust GPS when you hauling a 20,000lbs. The transmission fluid got hot, we lost engine braking, over worked the brakes. It was scary.
- this guy right here drove me down the mountain to get transmission fluid! Life saver!
- 4quarts of new fluid and babied it the rest of the way
- made it for tech inspection

- Trucks brake pad cracked and discolored got soo hot!

It was a long week this trip. I literally drove over 13hrs to Kansas City stayed up a couple nights took a power nap and we hit the road to Maryland then stayed up all night getting the car ready. Then stayed up a night or two.. With naps in between. LOL It was crazy!!! The experience has always been memorable traveling cross country and going racing with great friends.
