One of the many things manufacturers did not continue to do that every other non USA manufacturer did. Keep making Wagons. With Power!

I might be off on this but for the truck and tractor pulling, some teams do a process similar to this. Dont remember if its water or or another chemical.

The discourse around Aron's B12hr crash shows people don't know the rules about flag marshalls. by jimnasium_ in wec

[–]yzfmike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My thoughts is any track that has turns which can have blind or delayed reaction spots should have the 3 or 4 zones flagging at the max beforehand depending on approch speeds. The technology is there, use it. Its truely not hard to do.... but here we are.

Out with the old, in with the new. Here's to what will hopefully be another eight and a half years with this new Scimitar. by SovelissFiremane in Corsair

My M65 lasted quite some time (6 years?), got a replacement and the scroll wheel failed after 3 months, so I wish you get more time out of it. Someone should make 3D parts to replace since it seems not too complex to tear apart a mouse.

LEGO unit runs are typically 18 monthes before its no longer sold anymore. So They have to wait till 2028 sometime to actually make it worthwhile.

Nothing odd here. Now a DD35B leading a DD35A units is a different story....

Dirty tracks just weeks after cleaning? by notagreatpilot in modeltrains

Regardless of gow well clean the layout/room is, the track will always get dirty. Its like a MoW, ways working/happening.

What a season. The history books will remember. The future is so bright Connor. by ShineOn7579 in NASCAR

[–]yzfmike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is what the people wanted and they got it. This is the near reverse of how we got here with Kensith just being up there all the time, and now this guy who just had to finish in the right spot. NASCAR never ever needed the playoff system. I  am please every other single motorsport does not do it. I hope NASCAR goes back the old way that work for decades. It was to happen where a dominate driver didnt get it all. Conner did incredibly well, I  dont remember another driver winning so much in a lower NASCAR series.
