Good work there!

Reminds me of an old joke about the word dictate:

In school, the teacher asks Stymie to use dictate in a sentence. And Stymie replies:

Hey Darla, how my ..... last night?

(Hope that's not over the line here).

Haha...I thought they didn't like him because he was looking for some potato-head.

the airbag isn't that sensative. Remove the fuse.

I would also get into the DIC and remove the bulb for the SIR warning light.

Finally, be aware that the steering column on an airbag equipped car is much different than a non-airbag column. Mostly, they don't collapse the same way, in fact, they are designed to support the airbag and the occupant.

So in a wreck, the aftermarket wheel could become a deadly thing.

Just so you know.

Also, your insurance company may be giving you a bit of a break because of your airbag (though, as my insurance agent said, if the airbag goes off, they're already writing checks). So they may not be happy with you if you remove it.

Ya' think? I'd guess that's the airline that's owned by Connie Kalitta, the retired drag racer. He was also married to Shirley Muldowney at one time, another retired dragster driver. It's a miracle no one was seriously hurt. I think they just haul cargo but I'm not entirely sure.

Have you ever seen a World of Outlaws or other good sprint car show on dirt? (TV is good but doesn't do it justice) That shit is balls to the wall and will likely make you a fan of (at least) all-American style open wheel racing in it's purest essence. Bring goggles and lots of beer. Eating dust and dodging dirt clods is thirsty work!

open wheels? Rice burners? Say what?

The IRL engine may be a Honda design, but it's a 3.5 litre V8, spinning to about 10k RPM, made right here in SoCal. Personally, I wish they would open them up a bit, they sound a bit restricted.

Oh, and these cars do run open headers. The IRL uses Ethanol.

F1 is the same deal... 2.4 litre V8, spinning to 19k RPM, made mostly in Europe, regardless of name on the car. England is the home to most all European motorsports, and that is where the various engines are made. Except Toyota (Germany) and Ferrari (Italy). F1 cars run on some form of pump gas.

I don't see rice being burned anywhere.

I am more of a Champ Car fan and was never in love with Tony George and his IRL dream. Apparently, I am stuck with IRL. I am a huge ALMS fan and an equally huge F1 fan. I will watch Grand Am.

I love the precision of these forms of racing, where one mistake = epic disaster.

I guess what I am saying is that "rice burner" is not the right term... and I have never liked it much, either.

Look, I'm a big Nascar fan too. But the 600 is almost always one boring-assed race, as are all too many other races at Charlotte as well.

Congrats to Dixon on his first Indy win. Those guys did a good job and really had them covered.
