Well, Dennis says, "Piss on NASCAR".

NASCAR denounces 'Let's go, Brandon' conservative rally cry (apnews.com)

 

Think next year I'll watch rugby instead.

NASCAR almost lost me with all the stage nonsense. I realize peoples attention span is geared towards more instant gratification. So that was their answer. Football did lose me with the whole disrespect towards the flag. Entertaining and grievance don’t mix. Wrong time and place. You do have to be careful at what offends you though. You’ll find yourself pissed off at the world mumbling to yourself staring out the window. You need an escape from reality for a few hours. The world kinda of a drag a present.

Vindication is sweet; mighty sweet, indeed.

10 wins.

Regular season champion.

Playoff champion.

NASCAR 2021 champion.

 

#5 Chevrolet driven by Kyle Larson.

 

 

And Bubba was first out of today's race.

 

Amen and amen.

So I guess we have to add the "B-word" as another word we can't say at a NASCAR race.

 

Why do I even bother to watch that anymore.

I still prefer nascar. I’d rather see them go back to pre stage racing. I always thought  little E was over promoted. Even though his dad was my favorite. I think bubba is over promoted. He’s going to have to step up now he has a teammate who has talent. It was satisfying seeing who became champion. Even though I would have been just as happy seeing Chase win. A son of a champion with real talent.

It’s been amusing to watch Ross give Denny a taste of his own medicine this year. I don’t have a favorite anymore since 2001. You couldn’t scripted a better ending to that race at Martinsville. Even the winner couldn’t have been more dramatic. With the schedule for next year and driver changes. Nascar could improve it popularity.

What an amazing closing lap move by the watermelon man!  Even the ex-driver commentators were awe-struck. Hamlin focused on the lack of pit road execution in his post race interview but the white as a ghost look on his face was indicative that he still couldn't believe he'd been snookered like that.

That was an awesome move, using the wall to turn while going full speed around the last corner.  Even the NASCAR/tv computers seemed to have trouble figuring out what happened...

Happy to see Kyle win with RCR. I always thought Gibbs was quick to boot drivers, this is another example.

    • Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB - 20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"
    • Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.    
    • Good information!  I didn't know about the dementia aspect and asked for a general for my second knee. I'd heard that recovery room time is usually shorter with a general.   The anesthesiologist talked me out of it and I had the spinal.  Inconvenience and/or discomfort is a small price to pay for reduced risk!
    • This is for those over 70 years of age contemplating joint replacement surgery involving general anesthesia. Even some 55 yrs. ago when I took my pharmacology class the dangers of developing dementia in the elderly that had general anesthesia were beginning to be recognized. Over the years there has been some refinement in the cautionary warnings, avoid general anesthesia if possible if you've had close to 10 priors, especially over the age of 70 and/or a family history of dementia. I'm not including the twilight anesthesia induced by propofol often used in cytoscopies or colonscopies. Seriously think about seeing a neurologist and undergo cognitive testing before proceeding if any of those criteria apply to you. Spinal anesthesia may be an option in some cases. I'm in the above camp and although I could use a new right knee, I get fidgety according to a prior orthopedic surgeon when the bone saw spools up or maybe it was the smell of saw blade meeting bone, anyhow I may have one general anesthesia left in me which I will pocket for now and I'm choosing mind over mobility, anyway where did I leave my damn cane!
