	As many of you know i inherited my dads 97 Grand prix. anyways it has been parked since dec 1 and i did the usual. Filled the cylinders with fogging oil, stabilizer in the tank. Anyways, last night i put the battery back in, which had been sitting on a cold garage floor all winter, and it started better than my sunfire. It felt so good hearing the 3.8 roar to life after a long winters rest!

	It SHOULD start! My '73 Bug convertible started up after sitting all winter... I totally forgot to take the battery out too.

	hahaha oh. Actually, for the first time in the 200,000 km I've owned my Tercel, it didn't start today. I've been at work since 8am monday (seriously! we've got a race in Oregon next weekend, and the car JUST came back from the body shop, so I had to reassemble everything, as well as rebuild the engine and tranny) I've had about 6 hours of sleep since then, and it's all been in the team winnebago! ANYHOW, I guess I casually left my lights on when I parked my car on monday, so the battery was rather discharged.

	ACTUALLY... I'm gonna try my absolute best to make it to the Maine Forest rally this year! I'm pretty sure ACP is competing in that one, so I'll offer my services. I'll also be at the X-Games... which I REALLY can't wait for! (Oddly enough, I've been complaining about getting 6 hours of sleep this entire week... and I'm posting on UER at 3:15am. Duh...)
