Does anyone think this car has a vacuum booster on the master cylinder? https://youtu.be/nqmvMIZCkZ4

OH, New Format.
I need a cherry picker to pull the motor out of the Uhaul; it's going in the F250. I've been shopping for one for a couple weeks but didn't see anything that really floated my boat. So I called a friend to see if he had one I could borrow; since He did an engine swap on his Toyota. He tells me "come and get it and don't bring it back!" I guess that means he won't be helping me with the 460. Once I get the engine out I can start fitting up the transmission and see what needs to be done to get the clutch to work. Once the F250 is on the road, I can start swapping the 4wd drivetrain into the Uhaul. So anxious to get these projects back on track.

The story I wrote on the Mint 400 for Fuelcurve got posted. It was a lot of work but had a great time at the race. https://www.fuelcurve.com/mint-400-race/
A friend of mine was launching his new magazine there; Dusty Times. The kickoff party had The Eagles of Death Metal playing. It was amazing to see them live at such an intimate venue.

Time trials today in Jean, NV. Going to be up near Caliente, one of my favorite places.

That Kodiak pits for a BITD team. He was in the same pit I was at the Mint. Pretty sweet setup, 4x4 on 22.5s.

The camper fits the truck well. Looks real capable.

I went to an event at Glen Helen yesterday; the Jump Champs. It rained all morning so it turned into a mud pit. No problem for me since I always travel prepared for truck camping. I had boots, warm clothing, protective gear, tools, food, drinks, etc. I talked to other people at the event who were expecting warm, dry weather and were caught off guard. I don't know about all of you, but I get a real feeling of peace when I travel from knowing that I am prepared for whatever comes my way. I've learned that you can't always rely on modern conveniences, and you can get yourself in a bad situation by taking things for granted. Anyways, the event was fun despite the mud. There were mostly street driven vehicles out on the short course competing for the lowest elapsed time in each class. I especially liked this brick nose Ford, complete with awning and camper shell on back. The interior had a nice carpeted insert for sleeping. It makes we want to get my brick nose on the road.
