Traction (tires)??

[dwarner]

Lee,

Any Streamliner class car is allowed to run on the long course. No need to qualify, 175mph + in the short course 1/4, to move over. With that said, we require new vehicles do their test and licensing runs on the short course.

......a much more representative portrayal of everyday Australian life than for example Crocodile Dundee( there's a Dundee in Scotland and the Kiwis might have one , nah that's Dunny-din , but none here.)Mad Max was filmed out at Silverton where Gennyshovel's from....actually it's a little crazier out there than the film makes it look.

We'll be guarding our gasoline but no more intently than our high speed tyres and brother you'll be needing some of them too so I suggest you'll need something to barter when you come looking for a lowmileage Goodyear Eagle that we might just have "archived" behind the oil dump.

Jokes aside ....I was just thinking about running the salt "electrically" it'd be more like soaring or sailing I guess , quiet and smooth......like being up the front of a 747 as opposed to a DC3?

Most electricity is produced by fuels found in nature.
The further you stray from nature the more energy you consume just to keep up.
I am making a lot of money on oil and gold futures
 while many of the electricity futures traders are going to jail.

I try to maintain gen on power dam some of your fellow calif guys funded on local river, they built a small dam  in mts  S of san fran, had to jump through bunch of hoops , in one of public meeting a tree huger asked " how will the fish live if you take all the kilawatts out of the water??", I was asked how I would asnwer that question= Here goes;; the gen take the kw out of the water and they go over the lines to your fridg & toaster and back into the ground and back to the river, therby circulating the kw's keeping them fresh, therefore we need more power dams so the fish don't have to live w/ stale kw's- if someone is stupid enough to ask such a question they will surly beleive this answer.
