Chicagoland Trip

[Paul.J.Timmerman@jpl.nasa.gov]

I had the pleasure of staying in Chicago's north suburbs 
last weekend, and hookup up with a couple of listers and
quattro nuts.  Mark Maslowski has been wanting to turn up
the wick on his winter drive, a hearty 5KTQ.  I had gotten
a call from his mechanic, an IMSA race mechanic who owns mark's 
UrQ and is fitting it out for this years Qfest a road america.
All I can say is that if Ed Cowbel's 300HP Volvo wagon is
antything to judge by LOOK OUT!  Don't feel bad if your Q gets
dusted by a gold coloured Volvo 760 on the loop, its just Ed!
He really can build a super race motors, and is doing quite a
number to this 83 Ur-Q.  I got to install a Knob in Marks car
and it runs very much happier now.  Ed may be running a bit
more boost by track time as well ;-)  I just wanted to publicaly
acnowledge a good time and hope the midwesterners get a chance
to all run up at Road America.
