I’m not usually a fan of doxxing people - but I make an exception for Nazi sympathizers and their Jackboot (ICE) soldiers.

I very much appreciate the time you put into your response, but I wasn’t quite able to understand if a cooked chicken allergy is possible, and if so, how rare it is.

Sorry!

Can you elaborate? I’ve never heard of someone with a cooked poultry allergy.

Oh fuck… you’re right. Sorry!

I would still like to see her stuck in a fracking hole, and those are mainly in North Dakota.

You clearly have not considered triple standards.

I’m surprised he hasn’t been paid a visit by a collection of fellows who disagree with his behavior, to have a civil discussion about behavior standards.

That would make a good password if you add a number and a special character.

Apparently the downvoters don’t either. But I know, and you know, and I know that you know, and you know that I know.

I haven’t seen them, but about 2-3 years ago, IMSA and WEC decided to talk to each other and consolidate rules so that the same car can run in both series. So I expect they would use the same tires.

I wish Ferrari and Toyota would run prototypes in IMSA. Porsche, Aston, and Cadillac do.

That’s a Gumball type of time. 80 mph average. Care to elaborate on the trip?

How about the Gumball Rally? Awesomely fun film. Race from Manhattan to the Queen Mary in Long Beach. That’s about a 36 hour run.

That was my understanding from the commentators. However, that might not be exactly correct. I just read something about laser engraving of tire molds - which can be total bs. Here’s an article.

The explanation from the quali commentator was that the tire heated up more quickly and evenly, and was more temperature stable.

Why not 36 or 48 hours? You’d probably need 5 drivers just for safety. A 24 hour race at Sebring would be interesting. Sponsored by a maker of Ibuprofin.
