….. and my gas mileage on track days drops to 5 mpg. Big Deal. Many tracks have gas pumps where they will gladly sell you more premium fuel for $ 6.50 ( or more ) a gallon. Same “deal” will be expected for charging stations. but I do get 4- 20 minute sessions per tank per day.  

I’m also one of those people who are making double to triple what I was making doing the same sort of work as I was as an employee. I write SQL code as a contract developer on a project by project basis. once the code is done and working as required, I can move on to a different project.

I just checked the car. Two of my wheels centers are almost 7 degrees out of alignment. I made the needed adjustment, but now I’m going to need the wheels rebalanced. ……. but to do that I need to remove the center caps...……. oh I can see this is going to get very complicated. There must be a “ special Tool “ …

“Temp’s in the mid 2000's …. “ I think you added a 0 . Mid 200's I can believe. Mid 2,000 you’d better think about deploying the Fire suppression system because any second now you’re going to see the flames from the fire.  

Love the Drawing of the “Attack Plan”. I didn’t think one of Napoleon’s Generals were still around.

There was a long line of Iraq citizen that fled out of Kuwait that had the same idea. “They can’t stop us all —- “ They were also very wrong.  

In the 80's we invited the local Camaro/Trans-am /Mustang contingent to a PCA track day event at Continental  Divide Raceway south of Colorado Springs . About 15 cars showed they all broke / overheated / ran out of brakes in about 3 laps. My 914/6 was turning faster laps. the 911's and the turbo’s were all going…

Citizenship is membership in a common society with the purpose of establishing common rules for order. It has nothing to do with white privilege or whatever garbage is coming from those pretending to educate people. Go back and read some Roman history or research Egyptian or Chinese Citizenship for yourself.    

Ok ....... but somebody still has to pay for the health care.

I have no problem with senior immigrants receiving health care, my wife is a “senior immigrant.” ( and we pay for our own health care ) What I do have a problem with is people who don’t follow the rules and want to jump to the front of the line and expect to get everything at no cost or consequence. Why should…

Most of the photos used in this story are of the OTHER Plywood boat that Higgins Built for WWII … that would be the PT Boat —- a fast boat powered by 3 Packard 12 cylinder engine that was capable of 45 Knots or so. they carried depth charges and torpedoes and were fast attack boats and sub killers. Oh and the…

. “A 997.2 C2 S probably. That has rear seats.”  

First that looks like he’s parked in front of Museum of History Central Park and Fifth Ave. I parked there once 10 years ago visiting an Aunt The parking Garage had a sign that said Exotic Cars pay triple the daily rate ( at that time $75 / day  )     so that’s why he’s parking on the street    

He said “ write out the numbers” as in One , two, three.... not 1 2 3 ... ok but takes longer the further you get...… — one hundred twenty three thousand four hundred thirty six —- he can keep his Corvette.

...... and the engine used in the dune buggy was a Corvair Monza Turbo with added boost for 250 + HP 

Want to see one in action? That’s the Dune Buggy they built for McQueeen to Drive in The Tomas Crown Affair. Never saw one in a mid sixes autocross, closest was a tricked out 427 Vette with race tires driven by some guy with a strange name..... oh yes I remember now ....his name was John Paul and he apparently had…

Not a problem for Air India. WE flew AI ( also Businees Class) and sat on the tarmack in Delhi for 4 Hours with NO AC .. It was easily 120 in the Cabin ...... no Bed bug Problems........ but their was a Strong under current of MUTINY aboard that flight........ no sign of bed bugs.

Good ---     but now you need to explain what a “Newspaper” is .

“. Walking and biking are, of course, already carbon-free forms of transport “

In order to homologate the 917, Porsche built 50 cars and famously sent the FIA photos of all 50 lined up in the factory court yard to prove it...... OK... so many were just thrown together at the last minute ( legend has it that some were assembled by office staff ) and they were later disassembled to fill the…
