@samv8 complain about his tires and set the fastest lap would be my bet

@dipodomysdeserti The parts that I was gonna put into it will cover the disposal fee, so it's headed to the scrapyard.

@huzer

Excellent…

@highlander Me thinks there were enough rust holes for that not to matter.

Hope she’s back to 💯 soon.

@gettingoldercarguy steak and salad go well together, this is next level.... Nicely done!

@roadkilled my car has a tiny crack on one of those split lines. Seems like some one tried to honk the horn real hard and broke it.

@fhrblig said in NFL Open Thread:

Am I crazy, or is every game this week terrible?

This is one of those weeks where playing Fantasy football is way more interesting.

@carsoffortlangley Ooohh, much want! The only SUV I really love!

@mark-tucker

Can't remember if I mentioned this before, but when I was 12 I annoyed my parents enough to take me to the last drag race at Lions Drag Strip in Dec 1972.

Some of the photos on that site are from Lions.

The Lions Club built the drag strip in a sparsely populated area of LA by the harbor to keep the boys from street racing. Civilization grew up around it and that eventually shut it down.

Now the area is used for storing shipping containers for LA / Long beach Harbors. Yes, those shipping containers for those harbors.

I also went to the last drag race at Irwindale around 1977. That web page has some photos from there as well, including 'Flower Power' with a different color scheme. At the last drag race many drivers wrote "Miller Beer Sucks" on their windows, as the city of Irwindale bought up the property and sold it to Miller for a bottling plant.

@oneavgjoe Former RV mechanic, never saw one in the flesh, surprised it has pontiac T1000 tail lights.

@ttyymmnn Or trumpets, apparently. Just got my old sax back from a complete refurb so my oldest can’t start playing. Cleaned the trumpet up this morning and my youngest has been fooling around on it. The dogs love it.

@cb

I recomment https://despair.com/ if you haven't seen it yet. They have great demotivational posters.

@chariotoflove got it, hope all goes well!

@jarrett At least this year we're getting a proper fall. Sometimes it just goes from being 15-20º to just dumping snow and being below 0º.

@awesomeaustinv If you find a later model, check the front seat before you let the kids have a look.

@roadkilled you forgot to click the back button.

@just-jeepin

Beautiful photos. Hard to beat a sunset with some puffy clouds at the right altitude over a beach scene.

@dash-doorhandle-and-bondo

Yea the Titan was at JBLM on Gray AAF. 4th Battalion 160th SOAR is housed near where we were operating there so they were pretty weird about us taking pictures at all.

@thedutchtexan how hot was it there?

@essextee I use an adapter sometimes for old Nikon glass, works great for me.
