TERCEL1: Ironic ain't it?

Isn't it ironic, cold weather is better for increasing engine power
but, not for increasing traction... So that's what was the situation
tonight at Capitol Raceway. With temperatures hovering around
freezing, there was very little traction to handle all that new
found cold weather power...

Fixing the manifold leaks helped immeasurably PLUS the boost
pressure was held a bit more constant thanks to the HKS
actuator... had the track been a bit faster and TERCEL1 may
have realized a sub 14 second pass... Perhaps next time!

Seeing that a few weeks ago I was unceremoniously
terminated from my 12 year gig with Smooth Jazz, 105.9 by
Citadel Brodcasting, TERCEL1 no longer sports the number
1059... instead, now its number is 1945

Anyone know the significance of the number?
