    'The lowest lap record chase'

    I haven't heard yet, but I am assuming that Neil Shelton took top honors at ORP in the 'drop the lap record the most' contest. He lowered it by about 30 seconds in FF, which would have been really hard to beat?

    More interest checking...

    I have grown very tired of trying to sell my 87' Chev R20 crew cab, and I'm thinking about parting him out. I have a virtually brand new 350 with an RV cam and Hedman headers in there, with maybe a 1000 miles since the install. With labor it all added up to $3500.00, but I figure $1900.00 would...

    WSP chat

    I had a long and encouraging talk with a female WSP lieutenant earlier today in response to a complaint I filed with them back in March. I witnessed a trooper go around a large 4x4 that was cruising in the left lane on I-5 at about 55 while blocking a number of cars behind him. The trooper...

    Rule change question

    I just reviewed again the rule change proposals before the IRDC voting later this week, and something caught my eye that I had not seen previously. Proposal #7, by IRDC, changes the point structure for any cars finishing below 18th, giving all cars below that 4 points. But, the line item for...

    Good news

    Some good news today from Italy. Massa has completed his test after the fractured skull incident back in July in Hungary, and says he is back and ready to drive. That won't be until next year, but it is very good news for sure. All he has to worry about now is his new teammate Alonso!

    PR ultimate lap?

    I was asked today if I knew the fastest lap ever turned at Pacifc. I recall Scheckter running an F500 car there in the early 70's (?) at around 1:06 or 7 but naturally I'm probably wrong. Rich, Rob, anyone?
