First lot was a promotional Corvette pedal car. 32 of them were made and given to select dealers....it went for $16,500!
$16.5K??? Holey Moley Batman!!!
Oh, a PEDDLE car! As in a child’s peddle car. Holey Moley Batman indeed.
BTW, how’s that rain gauge looking? Another 12-24 hours of rain for you. Got the diluted storm in Central Oregon. Another 36 hours of storm for us per the forecast. Good day to watch a race.
Did I tell you I got 8 Q points?
Only one too many times.
Dunno about church today. Pretty nasty outside.
Mrs. Happydog thinks Jr. is going to take out half the field. No comment is the best I can do.
Rutledge and the ESPN idiot that were doing the auction were insufferable. ESPN idiot kept saying the pedal car was a 57 ‘vette while the image on screen showed the auction house’s tag on the steering wheel saying it was a 53. The two announcers forced me to tune out very early.
Race in a couple of hours! We have Jr. on the pole followed by the on fire Kenseth and Logano winning Nationwide.
Tubebender, I see you in the ping list, tell me if it doesn’t work!
I got you LOUD and clear!!!
Whew, glad we got that resolved, :-)
Junior! Junior! Junior!
See y’all after Church...
There is a reason why some chasers are in the back. They had some bad races. This is only race 3 and the top 3 could and probably will have a bad race or 2 before it’s over.
Don’t know how it will turn out, but it’s early enough for anything to happen.

OTOH what’s not to like about privatizing something so exciting?
Being in Pittsburgh I am sorta obligated to pay passing attention to the Stillers (go Vikes so we can get on with rebuilding) and the Pirates.
All the neighbors are having Steelers, Pirates parties.
I am watching NASCAR.
As bad as NASCAR has become there is no sport more AMERICAN!
What a wonderful pre race.
Go Broncos!
my Cardinals are lookin like lil red headed step chillens
ugh
Glad I’m not the only one pushing for Jr!
Broncs? Yeah That works for me too. Anything to get the Steelers to rebuild.
Although I have to admit Polomalu came “close” to making a TD saving play. Close is the key word. A few years ago he woulda made it.
Even though I am not running Jr, I would be happy if he won this one.
Have they gotten any of the parts to put your Corvette together yet? My Audi S6 took a little over two months. Now I kind of wish I had gotten a Nissan GTR. It is also AWD, but 0-60 in 2.7 seconds! There is a Head-to-Head video of a Porsche Turbo S against the GT-R in the standing mile. The GT-R won. There is an Alpha-12 tuned version of the GT-R that will make 1,500 hp on racing fuel and about 1,100 hp on 93 octane.
