		<description><![CDATA[This weekend saw the completion of two critical projects: the installation of replacement shift cables and the fabrication of a new radiator saver bar. Both efforts seem to have been met with success.

		<description><![CDATA[At the behest of Herr Doktor Stevenson, I did some further radio testing with the new GP68 radios, just to make certain that they are fully cross-compatible with the HP10&#8217;s and SP50&#8217;s, as well as with our used Nextel Cup headsets. Fortunately for us, the GP68 uses the same plug style as the headsets and [...]]]></description>

As some of you know, we will be able to amplify and play music from the car while on the track. I had a very old Rio [...]]]></description>

We&#8217;ll once again be very, very glad that we have the cool suit system running, as the high temps will likely be in the mid- to upper-80&#8217;s and the humidity high [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Bill got his heavily-modified Renault Dauphine to the race on Saturday; unfortunately, it never left the trailer. Seems he blew out his right-side custom half-shaft earlier in the week on its maiden voyage and couldn&#8217;t get it back together for the race. The car was incredible in every way. One example: it&#8217;s painted in 5 [...]]]></description>
