First job that the IRS cared about ... Working at an Army PX (Post Exchange [store]) ... Men's Clothing Dept. I was horrible! I was suppose to sell suits. I had to take these army guys addresses down for their alteration. With my dyslexia I couldn't for the life of me get their weird organizational ...

Yuki in Control:

I think JK felt it was a lot of work for him ... but of course it is ... taking care of three kids and their individual karts! Now that we've seen how to do it, I think it could be done faster and easier with more sharing. They used a pretty big portion of track. I think they could make a shorter tr...

something like CSP. Not mentioning any names here *cough*me*cough.

... or my "SM" WRX.

I didn't realize where low riding pants came from, and what it meant (in prison). Makes sense that gang attire would come from where they spend a lot of time ... but I'm sure that if the kids who propagate that "inviting" look knew what it meant ... they wouldn't be stylin like that ... or...

Notice how fast Greg Peng has gotten?

Check him out driving a F3000 at the GP course in Turkey. 2nd one show an external view with his Ghost car from I believe the previous lap ... after a few seconds:

I believe GTR helped me to be smoother with my inputs

Times are a changing ...

Easy to criticizes. Any of you valedictorians or near valedictorians have anything constructive to suggest vis a vis making our sport more economical while we see our attendance dropping ...

Then there is the issue of more leverage putting more pressure on the bearings. 10 mm is probably OK though?

Doesn't widening the stance = lowering the car as far a geometry is concerned? ... Marshall!

And here they talk about producing large amounts of HHO from miniscule amounts of electricity ... perhaps making HHO a viable "fuel/air addative."

btw. you don't have to work again when doing X Runs. Last time we also had Fun Runs. But that's never guaranteed, and requires working again. X runs are a sure thing.

Just tanked up. Really disappointed! This week I really dawdled along to work ... keeping it around 65 on the fwy, following trucks, coasting, often and early, easy acceleration. 19.4 mpg with my egg shaped Previa. Highest bill ever ... $77+ at ARCO ... but that's with 89 octane. Going to try the mi...

I don't think it matters for your list, but if I can make it out on Saturday, I will be sharing with Karen Zaterman. Testing our newly rebuilt Penske's ... assuming I can get the car put together before Sat ...

HHO is not H20 ... water vapor into the intake doesn't work because it displaces oxygen. Water vapor/spray added after air is mixed with fuel helps by cooling the mixture and perhaps by adding to the "compression" once in the cylinder ... if I recall correctly. Water or Alcohol or a mixtur...

Note that synthetics in the tranny can mean harder downshifts, since the synchros need some friction. In fact you can buy friction plus tranny fluids to make easier shifting, ie. GM Synchromesh, Redline MT-90. You can run a percentage of those fluids in your gearbox.

A german study a few years ago said that the most fuel efficient method of driving was fairly brisk, 3/4 acceleration to speed, then coasting back down again. Not very practical. If you've ever had a car with an instant mileage gauge, you KNOW that acceleration is the big gulper of fuel, and that co...

The electricity is already there ... the HHO would just supplement, like NOS but not for added power. Thinking back to the old HS Chemistry demo, I didn't think enough HHO could be produced to have a noticeable effect, but there have been "improvements" in the anode/cathodes along with mor...

A colleague was involved in filming up in the Andies while they discovered freeze dried remains of semi ancient indigenous peoples. He got a severe case of Montezuma's revenge ... three days from a doctor/civilization. Went out of his tent at night to relieve himself. When he was finished he looked ...

What does our Scientific Advisory Board think of using our cars electrical energy to create HHO from water ... plumb it into the air intake system, for getting added MPG?

Lots of youTube clips on the subject ... like:

First Job ... probably Caddying at the local golf course. I vividly remember this dude chasing me with his club through the parking lot when I decided after 9 holes it wasn't worth it doing the last 9 holes!

Curt would probably LOVE the Deep Fried hot dogs that I saw on the Food Channel show Dives, Dumps and Drive-Ins (?) from some shack back in New Jersey. They DID look ... very interesting ... especially when the split open and virtually turned themselves inside out.

Rear brake rotors and calipers?
