Which Nick is that? I have not, but I need to call him anyway. If the crank is ready to send, go ahead and ship it over to him.

Bump, Brock still needs parts! It would be great if we could finish this sled up during the summer so we have all fall and next winter to promote it.

Matt's right!! You can't promote ticket sales without actually having the sled done. We learned that with the last one.

Been searching around for a new track. I will keep on it.

Nick at the HOF is picking the skis up from me and will get them to Brock. They are solid skis, not NOS. They do have some rust pits. I had them powder coated, so they look pretty good.
