Speaking of Vegas; the oddsmakers have JJ as a 6-1 favorite, with Flash and Fast Kasey at 7-1.

DW snip --- They put the fuel pump on top of the fuel cell and it helps make the car safer, the pump is more efficient too...

BRILLIANT!!!

Cable driven off the oil pump? Too strange. Can't have a tank mounted electric fuel pump, huh?

Nascar stayed with the mechanical pump because it is safer than electric pump.

Safer maybe, but not more efficient. There is no "lift" at all when mounted on the bottom.

Hickory for pig... using some Cajun Dust and brown sugar for a dry rub... little mustard for glue. Grille em low and slow. I give the kids a little dish of Yoshida sauce for dipping...
