    Dodge EV Day 2021

    I gotta hand it to the Asian car companies. Sticking with the hybrid power train seems to be the better business move. The big three, which I hate to talk **** about, but they just make the worst decisions. They are like a 5 year old, they can't figure out how to compete. Then walk away from the...

    Dodge EV Day 2021

    You can buy rods aluminum or steel that can drive 1000+ miles and make multiple passes in drag and drive racecars making 3500-4500 HP and a major manufacturer has their engineers castrated so bad their rods can't make 10,000 miles. Excellent plan! Ruin any reputation to make EVs look better...

    Atco Dragway Closes

    I'm going to get you a innocent bystander T-shirt.

    Atco Dragway Closes

    No, but you have very little chance of being hit by one. I'll take those odds any day, over normal traffic. You are in greater danger just driving down the road on a average day. I never thought much about not having a horn on my classic car, it's missing from who knows when. Then I took a...

    Atco Dragway Closes

    I know. I hate seeing a track close also, especially one with as much history as ATCO. I get a little "invested when people just start repeating crap they see on the news. First of all if you are standing on the side of a road, any road at 3:30 in the morning, you are not a innocent bystander...

    Atco Dragway Closes

    Street racing sells copy, and ratings for news cast. Someone wrecks while texting no one will ever know because accident is long forgotten about by the time phone records are introduced in court. I have multiple people per day that almost run right into the side of my semi-truck because of their...

    Atco Dragway Closes

    Re Really, because I see dipshits all day long way more interested in their phone than my 40 ton truck 3 feet to their right. Don't believe the government hype. Inattentive driving will always kill the most people. Remember speed does not kill, it the stop that kills you.

    Atco Dragway Closes

    Stand in one spot on any given road and see how long it takes you to die. Wrecks happen every day that involve no racing at all, mainly due to phone handling. I will take two cars racing on a uncrowded road with both drivers intently focused on driving rather than some twit with a phone and a...

    Back to the streets. Makes for better racing anyway.

    I bought the only NHRA Stock Eliminator Imperial today

    Stock eliminator, that's some real science there, way beyond my pay grade. Good luck. I would love to try it.

    Dodge EV Day 2021

    That marketing idea should come back to bite them in the ***. Like every comedy/satire writer should be making fun of such a silly idea to promote a car who's purpose is to eliminate engines. Like I have said before I'm not against EV, but this hard deadline BS is ridiculous. Bring them online...

    Dodge EV Day 2021

    Will be interesting to see how NASCAR handles this electrification. We all know the Nhra will f.... It up, just doing whatever Chevrolet wants. NASCAR has to deal with Ford and Toyota, both of which have very different views on their products. Ford was first to ditch cars in general, throw their...

    I bought an old Slingshot dragster

    And there goes my driving career.

    Looks like fun Bob. I'll drive it if your desperate.

    Dodge Dart GTS 440

    That is a lot of words, just to admit that the author is a wee man. Seriously if you can't stop a 10" manual brake, 3500# car you need to buy a gym membership. I'm not saying it will haul down like Bob's Redeye, but in 1969 it is adequate. Manual verses power steering is apples and oranges. They...

    1968 Hemi Road Runner Test

    There is a pretty famous/documented XP29 Charger. It was the press release car in numerous pictures introducing the new Charger body style. It had the door Hemi badge, but not the R/T badge on the headlight door, just the Charger arrow. I do not know if that is the car in the picture. Stands to...

    1968 Hemi Road Runner Test

    There was no such thing as a R/T trim level package in the previous years. The "S" for special (not the model). Thus the use of a "regular" Charger in a preproduction test/press car, so that it could have a title and be registered to e lent out to auto journalist and such.

    1968 Hemi Road Runner Test

    1968 XP29 car. Still not a Roadrunner Be warned: don't read the comments, you will truly realize how stupid people are and there really is no hope for the human race.

    Dodge EV Day 2021

    I think you are right. I like the Airflow. I would buy one of those gas or electric. Too much windshield, I'm not sure why the windshield needs to come all the way back to above the steering wheel, but they all seem to be going that way. Dash is too Cadillac, with a big Tesla billboard in the...

    Dodge EV Day 2021

    That is God awful. The wheels look incredibly childish, probably would look better in crayon. The grill/front looks nothing like a 70 which is the ugliest Charger ever made. Looks like a 1989 Escort with a 80s Ferrari bumper put on. Why is there such a need by designer's to make a weird car look...
