So every Tuesday night...

The torque thing is totally true. In higher gears I can idle along getting decent mileage, and don’t have enough torque available to put down the pedal without lugging the motor. If I want to speed up I need to downshift (conscious decision).

Good tip. Your local garbage dump/transfer station can also be a cheap way to get weighed, or even free.

I’ve heard that term before in America and Canada, not sure how common it is. Also seemingly related, “Ate his lunch” meaning a severe beating (i.e. not even a close contest). “You absolutely ate that guy’s lunch in the first heat!”

That’s awesome. I had always thought that the dash board was so named because that is where your head would be dashed in, in the event of a front-end collision.

Please DO IT. I genuinely want to read this article.

Autocross can be a great option, and much lower cost than going to a dedicated racetrack. “Take it to the track” doesn’t necessarily have to mean Laguna SECA.

Right, it’s “Earlene”.

Check out your local credit unions. This was Washington State Employees Credit Union, but now the rules have changed so that anyone in the geographic area can join, you don’t need to be a state employee anymore.

Depends on the institution. When applying for my last car loan (credit union), it was 10 years or 100k miles for the best interest rate, you could finance a “classic” auto for higher rates and only up to 80% of book value.

True, but do you think Trump considers second- or third-order consequences of his actions?

Details, details. A few minutes each with a cutting torch in a few key spots and those frames can be weakened as needed.

Agreed. That’s just it, keep it under 500, cool it properly, make sure all your ducks are in a row. Fuel pump, injectors, BOV, waste gates, oil cooler, most importantly a good tune from someone who knows what they are doing. 550 is asking for trouble unless you build the bottom-end.

With a head in my lap like that, I’d be tempted to just stick my finger in their ear. Or lean over and say “oh hello there” upside down...
