Well it's been a while since I've updated the list on my car and everything, so here goes.

About 3 months ago my father decided to close his shop of 24 years in Delray Beach, Florida and move with a friend to Charlotte, NC and start a new shop. I don't like Charlotte, Florida is too expensive to live in, and I had a job offer in Winston-Salem, NC so I packed up about a month ago now and moved to Kernersville, NC. I actually only worked with the place that made the original offer for about 2 weeks then got a better offer in Greensboro which I took. I still have a *large* ammount of Audi stuff in Florida, most of which I am going to be going to pick up actually tomorrow. I've got 2 cars in the marketplace right now that I need to get rid of quickly, plus I'm going to be posting alot of stuff soon so keep your eyes peeled. More importantly then all of that my better half is pregant http://www.jcforbes.com/family/baby/ , so tons of new and exciting stuff going on these days even though it could have come at a slightly better time. 

Because of all the moving not much has been done on my car recently, but I have updated my website quite a bit. http://www.5000tq.com of course. I end ballanced my connecting rods right before I left on a custom made end ballancer, which Ben Swann asked me to post pictures of for him, so here they are: http://jcforbes.com/jcfpics/rodballancer

A little while ago Ben came down to vistit me and I snapped some pictures of his car, you can check them out at http://jcforbes.com/jcfpics/benswann

For tons more great picture you can check out http://jcforbes.com/jcfpics/albums.php . Theres a few I took last time I was down at the Champion race shop under the "Other Audi Stuff" album, plus lots of Trans Am stuff, tons of Porsche racing stuff (hundreds from Rennsport Reunion 2 in Daytona - TONS of 917 pictures), and other stuff that most of you guys would like for sure.
