Happy Easter and let's hope that this crisis ends soon and we can get our cars out again :)

Right back at you. Happy Easter!

Fortunately, I live in a somewhat rural area and can get the car out for a drive without risking anyone's health or violating any State orders. My wife wants to go for a drive today which we might do if I can get the car started.

Although I live in Connecticut, I will follow the State of Ohio law. Ohio has enacted a set of rules for social distancing that Jack Barush calles the "Chuck Berry Law"; You're only supposed to be riding along in your automobile if you have no particular place to go.

In the meanwhile, I was trying to get my race car buttoned up and with a little burst, could finish it today or tomorrow. But I just received notice this morning that my event for May 1-2 has been cancelled.

Arcturus, I know your engine is under the knife. Your work is stimulating me to get my spare B-16 onto the operating table - at least for exploratory surgery. To be honest, I want to see if the head could be ported for better engine breathing. My spare B-16 came out of an MGTD! In any event, keep up the good work.

And then, if you have absolutely nothing to do and need to kill some time before cocktail hour, here are a couple of dull, but short videos - of my engine's catastrophic failure and then of it's rebirth just last weekend.
