Jim Bollman 785 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 I thought there was a thread already that covered humorous car related jokes, photos and memes but couldn't find it. So as long as I was starting a new thread I thought I would also include interesting and humorous auto related videos. No politics. So start it off. 5 Link to post Share on other sites

franklinman 97 Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Having some racing background/experience behind me, though not in pre-teens extreme engined type vehicles, one thing that always concerns me when I see these machines being operated at speed is the tires. I doubt that they are running high speed rated tires. Many I see are running the same high pressure tires like most of us run on our brass-era cars. This is a disaster waiting to happen. I guess in many cases it’s the only thing available to fit the vintage sized rims but having seen the consequences from a tire failure at speed it still gives me chills.

Morgansdad 312 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Funny, I saw this thing on here last night and today on the world wide interweb I read it was being taken to Florida to be restored ? The article had several pics of this car and it was cut into 4 different sections. I guess for transport. It does have a hot tub in the very end of it. My question, why in the heck would you ?...... 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bollman 785 Posted May 14, 2020 Author Share Posted May 14, 2020 (edited) Along the lines of the above grill, here is a portable camp fire I use to carry in my camper. I have since replaced it with a Solo smokeless fire pot. I bought the cap at Hershey, he had it marked $3 and asked if he would still sell it to me if I was going to made it into a portable camp fire. He said he would take $2 🙂.
