"Quality" means different things to different people.

They'll always find something wrong with the "American" product.

Cars have always been a thing for me. *First car was a '61 VW with a
blown engine. *$100. *Rebuilt the engine for a couple hundred more in
parts and had a car. *Ended up working on cars for a living for a few
years between stints at college.
I've been through 20 cars in 35 years. *I have an appreciation for
well-built vehicles and a distain for poor engineering/execution. *My
weakness for badly executed vehilcles were the MGs and Austins.
Still do all our maintenance (for what's not factory covered). *It's
the same bliss I feel working on a boat. *"Cruising is working on your
boat in exotic locations" fits perfectly.
I had an MGA. Lovely looking car, really. Fabulous lines. Nice to drive,
but a real p.o.s. *Of course, it had a kazillion millions on it when I
bought it.
I've been looking for a new "road car," and so far, I've not found
anything that compete with some of the Japanese brands. Took a look at a
new "5" series BMW and a couple of Audis, but they didn't do much for me.
I've been watching a bit of the Indy 500 today (speaking of cars), and I
was delighted to see how far Danica Patrick has come. Next year may be
*her* year at Indy.
Would she be the first woman to win?
That sure would drive the good 'ole boys crazy.
Well, the Indy has a slightly different audience than redneck racing,
but, yes, if she won (she would be the first woman to do so), it would
cause apoplexy among some men.- Hide quoted text -

Poor dumb Harry. Everyone here that knows about racing, understands
that as usual, Harry is sticking his nose where it doesn't belong. Gee
being an alleged mechanical engineer, you'd think he'd know that
Sprint cup racing attracts some of the best engineers, scientists and
craftsmen in the U.S. Every part has gone through thorough and
meticulous design and testing. Comparing Sprint series owners builders
and drivers to "rednecks" (Harry's bigoted term) is just plain stupid.
It's akin to comparing aerospace engineers to janitors.

I am a NASCAR fan, but I have been to Indy for the 500 more than any
other track I have visited.. Indy is great, everyone should experience
it at least once. Go a couple days early, camp in the field next to
the facility or in the yard of any one of hundreds who rent space out,
watch your car, provide utilities etc for a price... Then go see one
of the local State Troopers (very cool in the bear hats and brown
uniforms) and have them point you to the best scalpers. Scalping is
legal, we have never paid more than 65 dollars for the 45 dollar
tickets in the paddock area where we like to sit.. *Anyway, Happy
Memorial day guys, The Mouse took a fifth place the first day and an
eigth on Sunday at Winchester Speed Park in Winchester NH, see you all
later, pics to follow..

Rowdy Mouse Racing, we race for cheese!

Dumber-than-an-idiot Loogy thinks I am a mechanical engineer?

Nope, not for a second. I always KNEW it was a lie.

That's
hilarious. I did take a couple of engineering courses while we lived in
Florida, but I'm not an engineer and I don't play one on usenet, as
dumber-than-an-idiot tries to do.

Liar. Let's have an in depth discussion about engineering then.

There are many here that know exactly what I do. You apparently aren't
one!

I use Japanese ceramic stones for my knives and lathe tools. 120 grit
for cutting a new edge and depending on the finish I want, 1000,3000.
5000 grit for polishing. I have 3000/8000 grit combo stone when I
really want a fine edge on my lathe tools for really tricky turning on
soft woods.

The trick is to get a wide stone so you can swipe the whole blade.

Was someone talking to you?
No one ever talks to Dingy Dan.
Best he can do is try to butt in when the men are talkin'.
His life is spent ****ing with people. Sad fool.
How is that different than what Donny and Harry do? The only
difference I can see is he limits his post to about an hour a day, vs.
Donny and Harry limit theirs to about 18 hrs a day.

Not to interject, or anything, but going back to the title of this
thread...I wonder if Scott ever figured out what he got blamed for.

You don't know what a hot engine is. Sprint car headers glow in the
dark, hotter than red not.

So did the new tubular exhaust headers of my TR4A and Lotus Cortina way
back in the 1960s when we strapped the cars on the dyno to see how much
the horsepower was boosted by new Webers, intake manifolds, headers,
exhausts, cams, et cetera. The shop had big floor fans to help dissipate
the heat. The TR4 was a great little sports car, by the way. The Lotus
Cortina had reliability problems. Both were bought new.

Working below decks on a hot boat engine is mechanical hell. At least
the auto engines are transmitting their heat to either the outdoors or a
large indoor space such as a service bay.

I blame Scot...

Yup, have a scar on my wrist from hitting the exhaust on our sprint
car while trying to put a plug wire back on in the pits.
