Much like that 231J with a hack and tap, 250k miles, and a beer cans worth of atf we get a bit off the rails. Talking about how stuff can just spiral on builds to the point of absurdity.

We had an audio file issue with episode 215 getting messed up and sounding like a robot fighting the tin man. So we are releasing episode 216 early. The boys get together to catch back up after 215 with Richie, Luke, and the walts plus Hiesenburg. We are trying to save the old episode but this was a great time and while we work on it.

Much to Frankie's disapproval Grembo, Richie, and Cody wheeled FNF. Flops, bad driving, minor mechanical stuff, and shenanigans ensue. Luke's 4.0 hatred carries on. 

We sit down with just the 4 of us, a somewhat coherent plan, and just get into it. Grems working on cummins stuff, Luke goes to ohio, and we end up arguing over roll cage tubing size.
