or perhaps irony would be the fact that a friend of mine, a VW mastertech came over to help me reassemble the motor tonite, and broke a crucial thermostat housing piece.... at this point i have little to no motivation to work on the motor tonite to have it back in the car

and my codriver doesn't have a car to drive on the rally... looks like more last minute stuff
i can only hope i get some motivation to do this, and we get it done by tomorrow night
