Re: Total Solar Eclipse

There was one that went through Nashville like 5-6 years ago I was able to catch as I was headed there for work. Plane landed about 30-40 minutes before the eclipse - people were already finding their place in the airport (skylights) to see it. I didn't quite make it to the office so I just pulled o...

Re: 2017 Dodge Challenger SXT - Mostmint #45

On one of the early pulls I manage to break one of the new clamps. This gave me a chance to see what happens when the chain snaps back, and in this case the blanket did a great job containing the chain - nothing went flying. Still couldn't convince me to stand behind the thing when under load, and t...

Re: 2017 Dodge Challenger SXT - Mostmint #45

Left side frame structure • The bottom of the side structure at the base of the A pillar is pushed in about 1.5”. I made several attempts to grab onto this and just pull it back but I could not get any significant movement out of it. Most of them ended making an imprint on the back side which is no...

Re: iRacing broadcasts

With only 4 competitors Crandon had more action that I was expecting. Racing trucks on dirt is a fun challenge, and I managed to not finish last and grab another post race interview. Up next is race 1 of 2024 ChampCar iRacing Series at Road Atlanta on Wednesday evening: https://www.youtube.com/watch...

Re: iRacing broadcasts

Hockenheimring seemed quite familiar to me though I just bought it in iRacing. Must have been on it at some point in the past. Only 6 cars. Was able to hang with the lead pack for a while but eventually lost the draft. Still managed to hold my P4 spot so it was a decent result. Up next is Crandon (d...

Re: 2023 iRacing - Other

XSLR is like a decathlon running races on dirt and paved both oval and road course. This was race 3 of the road course part of the season. The league is lightly attended so we only had 6 cars for the Monza race. Lost of camera time in this one. It evolved into three groups of two for a bit but then ...

Re: 2017 Dodge Challenger SXT - Mostmint #45

updates from the past week: Frame machine: To fix the leak I removed the swivel fitting that was leaking. When I removed the swivel from the hydraulic cylinder, no fluid came out. This prompted me to fill the cylinder with fluid. After disconnecting the swivel from the hose, I connected the hose dir...

Re: online videos of whatever

Spec-5 World Tour made the top 10 iRacing highlights for January. Check #3 - it was the 7-way race at the end of the Nordschleife race in the prior season.

Both mine and Kurt's C4s have the plastic LED lights - not a lot of miles yet but they work well.
