What for? I don't remember anything he posted that would warrant a ban.
I think it was on the "Libya" thread from last September. Most everyone tried really hard to keep it from getting too political but, "most everyone" didn't mean "everyone".

Wow, I never saw it. I just figured we'd been posting on very different topics for awhile.

About the best food on our last trip to Ireland (damning by faint praise), but the place smelled like urinal cakes.

You bastard's couldn't let me have a pic on 1903?

I'll own 1911, just so no Colt pics come up.

I went for a ride with my Dad today to play with his new camera. We went to meet my wife for a car cruise at Bear Mt but it had been postponed due to storms forecast that never came. Too bad because there were two big trucks from Reliable there that probably had something cool inside. On the way home we saw this '56 Kenworth taking a break. It's not a show piece, just modernized a bit and still working every day.

In reply to Wally:

I think it's so awesome that heavy trucks like this are rebuilt/refreshed/reused over and over again. I wish people would take this same attitude with cars(more often), but business/banking and society just discourage it.

Looks like the Pete from Duel's respectable brother.

I got a question. How is the cooling system set up on classic drag rails? I can see that there is some plumbing, but can't figure where it goes...

Most never ran anything. For the amount of time they ran, it wasn't worth the weight penalty. So they hard blocked em. Also since you cut the nitromethane with methanol.... It runs cool anyways.

Sure looks like it. Remember this one from a few years ago?

EDIT Hang on, is that tire full of mouse? Is that actualy a rally car wheel tire and they had issues and pressed on regardless?
