find some cool hubcaps for those wheels

chevy chevette 4 door auto, bought used out of desperation for something to drive to work. no power, from day one it was stop at the auto parts store almost every day. then the tranny quit. paid $250 for that ‘cause I had a buddy that had a shop. pretty soon it started adding up and that cheap car was costing me a car…

unless you have tried to live with an automatic chevette  you have no idea, 6 days a week, an hour each way to work, the home trek was usually longer for the stop at the the parts store for whatever had failed that day, not even kidding

in a matter of days we found out about how the transmission on our 2016 Focus was crap because of the dual clutch transmission. I have to admit though, the factory replaced them with an upgraded version free of charge and it recently passed 100k. so fingers crossed

If you can see most of the action, as in an oval, it’s great, but at a road course where you might be able to see 2 corners if your lucky, not for me. at any race you are not getting all the info on what’s going on in strategy etc. of course in today’s world you can come home and re-watch your DVR version and get…

I started following Mark Donohue when he was driving in the trans am series. the more I found out about him the more I liked him. In the 70's I stumbled on his book, “Unfair Advantage”. this is a must read for any fan of any era. my favorite story was when Penske decided to run Porsches in the Can Am series. they had…

simple, run ‘em at the Indy road course they used to run on, they removed the part that caused the tire debacle and stuck some more twisties in there, solved!

great, an 80,000 pound projectile with as yet unproven technology all ready to squash some poor unsuspecting motorists

so ironic that Penske ended up running tony george’s kingdom. roger was the final straw drinking tony’s milkshake. go back and watch the winner’s circle when al jr won with the mercedes engine you could cut the tension with a knife. insiders say that was the moment he made the decision to start what would become the…

I say, do you have some grey poop on you now?

welcome to the world of kia, it was a long time ago but my hyundai experience was great, trouble was we didn’t like the car as much when we test drove it. ended up buying a focus. my friend that lives around the corner that comes over to tell me what i’m doing wrong, he bought the car that we turned down and his…

i have been watching all kinds of racing for at least 60 years, I’m kinda confused as to why I am just now hearing about this rule

he started in the 2001 season of Cart and won the Nazareth race, 20 years later he is on the pole for Indy, he’s really an Aussie, born in Brisbane Australia. his family was from New Zealand and they moved back there when he was very young. Ganassi snapped him up and been with same team since 03, pretty smart move.

Iv’e always heard to prime the lifters by soaking in oil for a specified amount of time before installing. maybe you could pull the push rods and pour a few cc’s of oil on top of each one to get them primed. if it looks like it’s working keep that up till they look full by having a little on top that is no longer…

I had a 84 diesel rabbit, my father in law wore it out and had the engine rebuilt and wore it out again. I got it and rebuilt the engine and wore it out, it had almost 300k on it and everything else was still fine but I could afford to replace it so I parked it. I decided to build a trailer ‘cause i was never going to…

i listened to them every week forever, they got me through some tough saturdays at work, a lot of the advice was to folks who were not used to fixing cars and I already knew a few of the answers but that really didn’t matter I would have listened regardless

chevettes

$6500 I might, I always had a yearning for an Opel, especially the GT, for 10k more, u-uh
