Is that the moto of the Rowdy Mouse Racing Team?

Seeing how you and your lover/master/clone Harry just LOVE to correct
people's spelling and grammatical errors, that would be MOTTO, dummy.

Yeah, if you want to see racin' like that, you have to go to your
local track on Friday Night, but it's still better than Basketball

I hear ya... growing up, I had two uncles that built and raced dirt
track cars. One was in my home town, and my Dad did most of the
fabricating on his car. While my Dad was (and is) a machinist by
trade, he was also a good bodyman and mechanic. He'll be 82 this
June, and while he's slowed a bit, he's still doing well.

Here's a pic of one of my uncle's car:

He was pretty famous in the area, always placing in the top 3, and
winning most races. Pretty cool... I hadn't thought about him in a
while. He's been dead for about ten years now. Great guy.

You mean "Rainbow Boy"?

He likes getting rear-ended?

Yep - loves the old "exhaust" pipe if you get my drift. :)

It's endemic in all motor sports. Hell, even F1 got caught up in it
when they obviously knew that Schumacher was running rocket fuel until
word got out, then all of a sudden - whoops - naughty, naughty.

Ferrari owns F1 like GM owns NASCAR.

I hate the COT and I blame Jeff Burton for that - he caterwauled about
driver safety, driver safety and too expensive, too expensive, too
expensive and look what we got - crappy looking cars that don't handle
for squat on any type of track and you get lousy races like last
night.

on Sunday, sell on Monday. :-)

Damn straight. :)

They run those up at Darlington on Saturday nights?

Or is that Lowes up in Charlotte?

Is Smokey Yunick still alive? He may not have invented cheating, but
he held most of the basic patents.

LOL!! I won a trivia contest with old Smokey Yunick's name - the
questions was who was Marvin Panch's crew chief.

Heh, heh, heh...

He died a few years back I believe.

You guys are watching racing while there's a James Bond weekend
marathon going on TV?

?????

It's not even a road race.- Hide quoted text -

No ****, idiot.

Actually it is a road race. Sort of like driving in Boston and trying to
get out of a round-a-bout. Or whatever those things is called.

They used to be called a "rotary". But, as the liberals have become more
influential over the years, they are now called "round-a-bouts".

Ian Fleming died in 1964, and he never saw any of the movies. The
exotic **** he has in the books was stuff like shoes with hidden
daggers, with the heels for handles. Hidden compartment for a large
handgun in the dash of his car, stuff like that. Simple, cheap, easily
fabricated stuff that would work in real life.

It's possible he may have never seen any of the movies, but I'm sure
he saw the original which hardly anybody remembers which starred an
American (Barry Nelson) in the original US production (Television) of
Casino Royale in 1954.
