Listen to this guy. Autocross is my least favorite but still fun. You should definitely run the speed stop challenge. That's a blast.

I figured you would at least have a big flat screen TV instead of that boat anchor up in the corner.

When Charley is driving it - it's a "fun car" -- when I'm driving it - it's a helicopter rotor.

Accelerating is optional...........stopping is mandatory. Your car WILL stop one way or another.

Flat screen is upstairs -- can't have that kind of crap down on the working floor! That "thing" you're looking at is an aluminum radiator "on end" that is a leaker... ( I don't do business with BeCool after the third times a charm routine). The boat anchor is outside the shop (for real)... I figured I might need a big heavy chunk of galvanized steel for something one day. Anything that doesn't rust - is outside "da shed".

I'm pretty sure Todd's trying to reel Greg in on this one.

Nothing rolls better than a flat spotted Hoosier

Those tires are probably good for about 10 heat cycles before its time for a new set. It will take at least two laps before they've got enough heat in them to do their job.

You don't think G'dub will get electric blankies to keep them cozy and warm?
