@Linda's Hell Cat - I agree the cold temps benefit making horsepower, but as Jim’s story makes clear, it wreaks havoc on the track. The DA and water grains control the power more than mildly colder temps during his last PB. The reduced knock sensitivity and extra 200rpm is probably where the...

I love that a factory car on a 315 radial smokes the tires from a roll... good times

What can you attribute the new PB to? Changes in the offseason?

That’s why I never bothered. They change the rules, you pull out your checkbook or you can’t play. Write more checks or you’re not competitive. Can’t just build a fast car anymore.

So will you still be able to run that class you like? I’m not understanding what you’re doing vs what’s outlawed.

I owned a 42’ toy hauler with a 14’ garage. It could hold a Jeep or a sXs no problem, but you’ll never get a challenger in one, and you’d be close to it exceeding the weight. I think mine was 4500lbs payload in a trailer that was already 20k. I don’t think renting a toterhome is viable, not...

Forget it then. Good luck with your battery. lol If you need a hand let me know. The other hand will have a bourbon though.

Still some strap left on a couple of those, a few more degrees of timing should handle that.

@1971demon - I’ve told my wife countless times, the next time I marry it’s for money. I was full on Florida man while I was down there. You’d never catch me in a stupid hat and glasses like that with anyone I know (until 4th of July)… but they’re perfect to beat back that Florida sun. I don’t...

You could make some. The hellcat stuff is less mainstream now and I’d imagine those people that got in early are still doing OK, but even the 170 isn’t drawing attention like a 2015 Hellcat back in the day. The 2018 did well for Demonology, but who else got that kind of attention based on that...

No guarantees for YouTube, but nothing stopping anyone from trying. The guys I watch are just like me, they just took it more seriously while I pursued a career. Everyone has a phone with a camera, contributing to it is free, no cost of admission… Just not everyone makes it big. I have a...

2 outta 3 ain’t bad! Not in this day and age.

@Speedy! - you nailed it. My sentiment exactly, if they aren’t making the dough, they don’t want to.

The quickest route to net worth would be to take up a trade and tell the universities to shove it. After a few years learning the ropes, go out on your own. You'll have more work than you know what to do with. This applies to all trades... I included retirement in my post because anyone with...

As someone that doesn’t identify as a millennial, but was born within the accepted range, they can buy $90k cars. Not saying that they can afford them, but buying and living responsibly are 2 very different things. FWIW - if a millennial you know that’s in their 30s or 40s isn’t making 6...

More pics pls

Being in FL for the partial and watching my security cameras at home was interesting. In FL you wouldn’t have noticed a difference, barely if at all darker, probably not darker at all really. At home, it was pretty dramatic and all of the auto lights turned on in the hood and it stayed that way...

Rubbish. I can record a welder and this pic of the sun turned out fine… I don’t really watch the news. If “my sensors fry” I’ll let you know. Sensors aside, they lack the contrast required to capture the partial.

Sky is clear in Orlando

Should be able to watch it through my phone.
