Years ago, driving from London Ontario up north for Christmas. We usually avoided the big highways, taking a slightly slower route through Central Ontario, through Mitchell, Listowel, into Barrie and then onto the highway. Unfortunately we were hit with a notorious “North of Hwy7 Snow Dump,” easily a couple feet…

My Ridgeline does it with the keyfob.

Wake boats should be banned from existing. They destroy lakes, kill most life in them, and destroy shorelines.  All to make rich assholes giggle for a few minutes.

eeeeeeevery now and then, the OPP here will do a little blitz and ticket people for leaving snow on their roofs.

I can’t speak for pickle brine but the beet juice brine is horrific and absolutely DESTROYS cars, I don’t care what the MTO says. Signed: a guy who lives in Northern Ontario and has to use a torch on every single fastener under every vehicle he owns. Most people around here just lease trucks for 5-7 years and then…

For what it’s worth, Van Gisbergen has raced sprint cars on dirt.

I would say the right way would be weatherpack connectors.  Or the OE version of such.  Solder isn’t bad either but it definitely has a habit of shaking apart. Always used weatherpack for connections on my circle track cars just for that reason.

I’m on my second Ridgeline and love it. I live in cottage country with shitty backroads, rough terrain and awful snow removal—I’ve spent my life driving big pickups, F150s, K1500s, you name it, and NOTHING goes through snow like a Ridgeline. It’s like magic. And I’ve pulled both a Silverado and an F150 out of the…

EK Civic Hatchback, with a manual. Anything from the CX base model to the SI really, but I think the simpler the better. CX, rollup windows, no AC, that kinda thing.  Perfection.

This.  And WAS the 1990 Winston Cup champion.  His supposedly “illegal” carb spacer actually made LESS power than the approved one, but they had to give ol’ Dale another Cup.

*cough*Autopian*ahem*

Front squat is a move I love to hate. It’s my primary squat movement due to some lingering lower back issues. I’ll take a relatively low weight for high reps on the front squat for true quad punishment any day.

First off, unless you are training for a specific sport (ie. powerlifting), nothing is cheating. So feel free to use straps, unless you specifically want to CHALLENGE yourself to improve your grip.

Sure, it is.

Yeah, they just all-around suck. I’d go to a better gym.

I really hope Cara is coming back though (and Greef, even), they were really starting to have some chemistry and she’s just a badass.  It’d be a shame to keep this ENTIRELY the “lone cowboy and kid wandering the desert” thing.

Truth. Reality is, if you’re not planning on competition, what you do with your hands is irrelevant. Whatever you need to maintain a good rack position without pain, do it.

In my case it’s chin-ups, but the same ideas apply. I went from not being able to do any, to getting three sets of ten pretty consistently now.

I use the strap method as well. Can’t live without it now.  Front squats are my primary squat.

Uncle Dana sure seems to love him. He often likes to bring in guys “who bang” (which Hardy does, if nothing else), and also likes crossover “stars”f. For some reason, he seems to enjoy making a POINT of “giving a guy a job because he deserves a shot and no I don’t care what he did in the past” ... (Even though he…
