    I don't miss that kind of nonsense at all! I really hate to wade through pages of nothing wanting to find more info in what was once an interesting thread.

    Traffic here will pick up after the holidays. Everyone will be looking towards Spring and get busy on their new projects and updates.

      I'm being partially smart-ass and partially not with that comment. I'm not a big drama fan, but sometimes, in the midst of all the nonsense, there are some sound ideas.

      It seems to get this way when there aren't a lot of builds getting posted. I'd love to contribute more but I don't think anyone really cares about uprooting trees with a tractor - my current build is more of an un-build.

        I'm not a drama fan either... I like the facts and figures of
        different builds... I'm not really a engine guy, more of a
        chassis guy and the chassis seems to get the back seat
        when it comes to most any builds... I've always tried to
        make it lite VS big power... hell, my Rampage is 2900#
        with a full interior and a moly tube chassis... when I started
        this project I didnt really want to go with the tube chassis..
        BUT there wasnt anything left to the truck under it.. it had
        rusted BAD Click image for larger version

          I've just been driving the Skylark daily to work and made a few minor repairs. I should have the digital screen up and running again in the next day or two. The solid state hard drive died. I've got a new one, software installed, etc. Just a bit of fine tuning of the software settings and I'll install it back into the trunk.

          And slowly making progress on my Drag Week 2017 plan.

                That puts him firmly in the "Power Adder" category - no?

                    I see that its injected so at least the runners wont end up with puddled
                    fuel in them and waiting for a back fire on start up
