<VV> Carb Sync and Linkage Adjusting / Tech session

Wed Oct 18 00:27:36 EDT 2006

Now here is a new Corvair who needs assistance and who is more than willing
to pay a fee. That alone is reason enough that he should be helped and NOT
charged when he attends the Charlotte show. This is tech session material
and an impromptu session can hopefully solve the carb problem and maybe
teach a few old members something in the process. Let's make sure that Danny
is helped and no fees are involved. We need new members and Danny is 
a rookie :-)
