    I fell asleep in 3rd Q of bears game, and woke up just after half of Detroit game, so I missed Carrie, dangit. 2nd half of this one has been interesting.

    Jebar's 2015 Nascar Thread

    I was cutting grass and listening to the PRN broadcast, Harvick declined their interview. Probably did the same to the TV guys.

    The Real P5 ?

    Not correct. An electric unit uses the same style rotary compressor, just with an electric drive motor mounted to it. Bearing and seal wear might be reduced by not having the side load of a belt, but I'd bet a purpose built electric unit would use smaller bearings to save cost.

    2nd best car won today. That's gonna leave a mark on Harvick.

    The first sentence, correct. However, Da Packers have never been accused of having deflated balls. Surely you have them confused with some east coast expansion team? :D Sent from 45°20'N latitude.

    This Just Can't Last!

    It's necessary in diesels to keep them from gelling up in winter, with gasoline it's just an emissions mandate. So I burn more fuel to pollute less? "Does Not Compute".

    This Just Can't Last!

    Similar jump here in MSP area yesterday. Also, the 2mpg drop I've had on the last 3 tanks suggests "Winter blend" fuel is here already.

    Say It Ain't So... Volkswagen. Fahrvegnugen (sp?)!

    This is nothing new, just a new player in the same game. When the emissions laws started to tighten, Cummins, Caterpillar, Detroit Diesel, and Mack (maybe some minor players as well) got busted doing the same exact thing. It cost them dearly, even forced Cat out of the on highway engine market...

    Thoughts from the track. .. Congrats to John Hunter Nemechek on his first truck win, here's to a long career in the sport. JGR is Superman in the Xfininty series. Really, it matters none who's driving, those Toyotas are stout. See above for a probable synopsis of tomorrow, but there are...

    What's Your First Major Destination After Getting Your Elio?

    Home. After that, depends if it's football season, racing season, or go visit the rellies in SoCal season (aka Winter with a capital W). If I have time, I'd love to head south out of Shreveport and run the length of the Great River Road past home to Itasca State Park up in Minnesota, then...

    Bradford and co making things interesting. It's a fun game to watch without a dog in the fight. (Subliminal Vick reference intentional)

    As a near Minnesotan (geographically speaking) I agree. MN is kinda a one man show offensively until they can prove otherwise. But when AP is on his game, that's plenty. We shall see...if I don't fall asleep before it starts...

    Pack wins 31-23, still scratching my head over Chicago's decision to pass 4 straight downs at the goal line???

    Matters none to me, it will be Mobil1 and Wix in mine after the break in oil drains out. That combo has been good to me. Probably whatever PepBoys house favorite is will be what they recommend.
