    The Cure for NASCAR

    Return to truly stock cars with a minimum build homologation rule. Imagine Challengers, Camaros and Mustangs racing at Daytona. Here are the simple rules: 1. No engine rules. If it's sold in the dealer's showroom, you can use it. No displacement limit, no horsepower limit. Must use street 93...

    Will this be the end of the Brickyard 400?

    Moved from the end of July to September supposedly to avoid the heat, this new date competes against NFL opening weekend and has been cursed by the remnants of the ironically named Hurricane Gordon.

    Any Taylor Guitar fans here?

    I just bought a 2018 K24ce V-Class. After being a “Martin-Centric” player for decades, Taylor finally got my attention with the V-Class. Had to try it. Since I have the iconic Rosewood and mahogany bases covered with great Martins, I wanted something different— different size, different...

    Charlie Kimball gets the “Elliott Sadler Knucklehead of the Day” Award. Interesting how Honda dominates after being behind at Indy. Another great drive by Dixon.

    IndyCar on NBC

    Excellent show at Long Beach, great coverage on NBC. So glad they got the contract for 2019. Looks like Leigh Diffey has found a home as the full time lead announcer. He definitely adds gravitas to the crew. Love the combo of T-Bell and PT. And I love Robin Miller but it was a plus for the...

    When to do first OC on NOS with low miles

    So I helped my daughter buy a new “2017” Mazda CX-7 last September. The car was built in 2016 in their Hiroshima plant then put on a boat, then a train, then sat at the dealer for a while. The car was on top of a lift in the showroom and kind of forgotten about. The good news is it was inside...

    Daytona

    I think the ARCA race sets the standard....tune in for the last five laps and you’ve seen the race. Quali is a major snooze. Is anyone watching “The Clash”?

    Who knows about dog’s ACL repair?

    So our beloved 11.5 yo Golden Retriever blew out her ACL. We have a very good vet that we have a lot of confidence in but I’m wondering how your dog did and which path of treatment you chose. We were told there were three options: medical, surgical suturing and TPLO (Tibial Plateau Leveling)...
