  1. I thought it was directed toward Surly Bevo as well
  2. When the French lady pit lane reporter interviews Koboyashi I have to feel for whoever is doing the English live closed captioning. Between the two of them I think I caught about 10% of that.
  3. Not quite 4 hours in but it sure seems like the Porsche cars have nothing to bring in a fight with the Ferraris.
  4. Allred's commercials are awful. He's basically a sentient cardboard cutout, with less personality. Cruz, unfortunately, can do what he wants and still win.
  5. I have a 2021 model with the 5300. It's been great for me so far. That engine has been around a while and is generally very solid. I think it has plenty of power. I tow a 6000 pound or so travel trailer and it goes up and down mountain highways no problem. Gas mileage isn't great while towing but it's not terrible day to day. The primary issues the engine has are all related to their active fuel management system, which is their cylinder deactivation system. Fortunately for me, my truck was built during the Covid related chip shortages and mine does not have cylinder deactivation at all. Many 2021 models had that left off because the chips that controlled it were in short supply.
  6. Typical Indycar BS on lap 1. These assholes can't start a race without playing bumper cars.
  7. Back home again. Final tally was 3968.8 miles. Came home to 98 degree heat. Was a bit of a shock after 50s and 60s in Montana and Wyoming.
  8. Ours doesn't have a slide, so it's always ready for action. At least the scenery was pretty while stuck in traffic. We weren't towing at the time, though. Camper was at the campground. We love having no slide because we have lunch on the road all the time. At devils tower we pulled up right by the prairie dog colony and had lunch while watching all the little prairie dogs run around. I do have to pull the trailer through Yellowstone to get to Teton here in a couple hours. So we shall see how that goes. Our first travel day through Oklahoma and Kansas we had a strong tailwind and got close to 12 mpg. But from Billings to Bozeman we had a 20 mph headwind and I was getting 5-6 mpg. Took a whole tank for that stretch. I have 6 gallons of gas in a can I carry around while towing and I almost had to use it.
  9. I'm about 2500 miles into an RV family trip. Wrapping up the fourth and final night at Yellowstone tonight. Hit Rushmore and Devils Tower before this. Grand Teton up next. Been lots of fun, the Imagine 21bhe has been great. Did get stuck in a 3 hour bison traffic jam, but otherwise Yellowstone has totally met all the hype. Crowds haven't been too bad either. Lots of places weren't out of school as early as we were.
  10. Scottie Mac puts it on pole, and it's an all Penske front row.
  11. The 19 year old put it in the wall. Rahal survives in 33rd.
  12. Bump day at Indy. Erickson was at risk in a team Andretti car but pulled it out with a few minutes to go. A rookie has one last chance to get in, and if he does he bumps Graham Rahal out for a second year in a row....
  13. Why the game gotta start so late? Sucks.
  14. This thread made me go watch the SNL skit with Norm where it's a West Side Story style gang and everyone starts singing and dancing except for Norm.
  15. That should have been a Vegas goal right there.
  16. It's like they're not even on the power play.
  17. Lando!!!!!!!!! Fun race!
