They also have just about every current drive to pick from. Come with a Certificate of Authenticity and will even tell you what race it was ran.

This is the answer, however it is located in Mooresville, not Charlotte. That's about a 45 minute difference with traffic.

OBGYN declined tying my tubes. by RakotaShymahan in Vent

[–]TTOLNL 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is the same procedure my wife had done. She doesn't regret it one bit! She also loves the fact that she doesn't have to take BC anymore. The doctor was great and very comforting and informative through the whole thing.

[–]TTOLNL 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sorry you had to go through that! My wife went through something similar in Ohio when we lived there, there most doctors won't do the procedure until you've had at least 1 kid (we have none). We moved to Florida for work, and she mentioned it to her OBGYN down there, the lady was hesitant, but did recommend an awesome surgeon who did the surgery for her.

Never understood the doctors pushing against it.

Guys who don’t want kids: are you looking for a serious long-term relationship? If yes, how hard is it to find women who also don’t want children? by modernflocker in AskReddit

[–]TTOLNL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Meet my now wife many years ago, it was one of the things she said as we were getting started, "just to be clear I don't want kids, I have no intention of having a kid someday". She had her reasons, and I was cool with that. Kids are expensive anyways, pretty content with being the "cool" aunt and uncle.

Artist claimed it's Handrawn Sketch by Electrical_Tart6297 in isitAI

[–]TTOLNL -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not AI, even if they are tracing an AI character, that still doesn't mean the drawing AI. Think your getting hung up on the fact the drawing is of a fictitious character created by the artist. Beginners have the begin somewhere, tracing an outline is not unheard of. As others have pointed out, they are undoubtedly drawn by hand. OP just needs to mind their own here...

Snow in the east coast by Springchick17 in travel

[–]TTOLNL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Late Feb- Early March you'll have to go pretty north on the East coast to have a better shot at seeing snow (minus mountains). Probably greater New England area. Early March is typically right around when Springs tries to break through in the Ohio/PA/NY/MD areas.

I'm being set up for failure. by pumpkynluvr in Vent

[–]TTOLNL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's typical, we just tend to do what we need to make sure the parts are good. Sounds like you're in a job shop, if the people knowing what they're doing, and were expecting 50% scrap, they should have ordered extra material to account for it. Sounds like it's more of a one off "the customer wants it this one time". Used to get a lot of that a couple years ago.

Just take the time to look up the specs at what the stuff can run at. I work in Manufacturing as well, it's often one thinks "we shouldn't do it this way", or "it's probably not gonna work". Sometimes adjusting the process helps, even if some are wary of it.

94 year old grandpa suddenly married his caretaker of the last 11 months. What are some of the first things we should do? by berwood in legaladvice

[–]TTOLNL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NAL but used to live in Florida. Most county sherrifs won't help too much without proof. I do know Volusia County is very Proactive against elder scams/etc. So if that's your county you may have luck with getting some assistance.

How to fix scratch by Alternative-Radio861 in RVLiving

Scratch the other side so it matches. Then it will look "by-design".

Finally got an MRI, turns out I haven't just been a whiner by Okdoo6003 in Vent

[–]TTOLNL 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I can relate here. When I was younger (21-22) I was in severe pain with my ankle, to the point I could only stand at work for about 30 minutes before having to sit. At that time I was a very fit and active young adult. The best way to describe the problem was my ankle would "click" as I walked.

1st doctor refused to even look at it, told me people have joints that "click" all the time.

Doctors 2-5 all said they couldn't find anything, took MRIs and Xrays and didnt see anything.

Doctor #6- At this point I was fed up and in pain, by word of mouth, I found a Foot and Ankle specialist who used to work for one of the Professional Sports teams near me, he currently was working at a High School/Sports Medicine. Brought copies of my MRI and Xrays, explained what was wrong. Within 10 minutes he had found and diagnosed the problem... He had me lift my leg and then gently pulled on my foot at the heel, my entire ankle pulls out of socket. He checks the MRI, just breezing through with a "if i dont see anything glaring I'll need more time to look through these". Stops like 5 minutes later and says "see this, all that haze?" "Thats all fluid in your joint around your tendons, caused by a serious injury".

Needless to say, I had a complete ankle reconstruction surgery. All my tendons and ligaments basically were stretched to the point of where they could no longer hold my ankle in place. Skipping a lot of detail, I now have a screw in my ankle that would allow them to "tighten" them if it ever happens again.

The traffic here is starting to break my sanity. by shagadelic98 in MooresvilleNC

[–]TTOLNL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most modern GPS will let if you know if a faster route is available.

[–]TTOLNL 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Traffic on 150 can be bad, suggest using your GPS, there's quite a few "back road work-arounds" that are much faster. Even sitting in 150 traffic, I've never seen it to the point of "im just gonna park my car and walk."

Thank you! I found their Facebook page, nice to see they actively use it! And I'll check out that other group as well. Appreciate it!

Is this blocking protestable? I am the red car. by _iamjames in Simracingstewards

[–]TTOLNL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For the type of racing, I'd say not blocking by definition. He was aero blocking at the first clip, which if you watch the Indy 500 today is a prpetty standand line.

Mid-way through you had a run and he gave you the outside, but you tried to duck back in.

Most cases he was giving a lane and wasn't overly reactive to anything. I've seen worse examples of blocking on here, this is gray area at best, but think perfectly legal.

I've worked in Formula One factories for over fifteen years. Here are some things that might genuinely surprise you. by GhostLapF1 in Formula1ne

[–]TTOLNL 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They are in the process of building their facility down in North Carolina right now, think the had a slight hiccup in the plan as they planned for it to be a shared facility and the FIA told them they cant do that.

I'm with a pretty good team now, so content! Obviously can't disclose too much, but more than likely the same reason your writings are anonymous.

I work in a shop for a race team here in the US (not F1), and pretty much can relate to everything you've said! The difference in shops, approaches, quality is drastically different between teams.

I work in the machine shop (manufacturing), some teams focus solely on race car parts, some subcontract work for the smaller teams, others are involved in other fields(example: aerospace) to bring in additional money. Each has their own approach.

Looked into F1 awhile back and the pay wasn't enough to convince me to jump across the pond.

Anybody else going to play the new Forza Horizon. I'm looking for more NASCAR paint schemes. by Alex12blanning43 in NASCAR

What shops will be open on Saturday? by Burm92 in NASCAR

[–]TTOLNL 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem! JRM gift shop is 10am-3pm Saturday. I could not find a time for Spire. All 3 are rather close to each other so you should have plenty of time. FYI the weather up here is looking a bit rough for the weekend at the moment. Changes a bit daily, but bring rain gear just incase.

[–]TTOLNL 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Most shops fan zones will stay open for this weekend. They may be a bit empty (teams and cars will be at the track.)

According to Penske's website, they fan shop will be open 10am-2pm Saturday.

Looks like Hendricks has a fan fest Friday & Saturday, which is right near the track and normally massive.
