Thought of the day.

Time for snowmobile season trail pass so figured I would order online........ gee with a $13.00 shipping rate I decided to just go downtown and get it. Would have thought that with the Covid situation the Government would have looked at this being they are trying to slow down traffic in those offices ??
But now that I was at SNB figured I would inquire about my personalized Mustang plate issue which still had not been resolved. Well Lord behold they found it in the back room, been there for quite some time but no one called me :unsure:. Ah well, will be all set for next year now ... (y)

2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 Blown Engine Reveals Two Holes in the Block

Not that long ago, YouTube vlogger StangMode had an unfortunate surprise while driving his tuned Shelby GT500. After five seconds or thereabouts of wide-open throttle, the supercharged V8 with 1,000 horsepower on tap blew up in pretty spectacular fashion.

I still got smilie, just much smaller, Same as photo link
not sure if there is much we can do about it.
 
Anyone catch the F1 race this afternoon?

Lots of drama and feel good stories.
Sergio Perez gets his first win in 190 starts.
And this after dropping to 18th after a lap 1 incident with Charles Leclerc.

Racing point, Canadian owned team, looking good to finish third in constructor’s championship.
Behind Mercedes and Red Bull.
And ahead of Renault and McLaren.

It was Mercedes’ to win but they screwed up tires changes under yellow then got a flat tire.
They put Bottas’ front tires on Russel’s car.
Didn’t look good for F1’s best team.

George Russel did great ad Lewis Hamilton’s replacement.
Led most of the race until the tire screw up and flat.

I think everyone knows Hamilton missed the race because he tested positive for Covid.

Didn't catch the F1 race, but I did find something interesting in the basement. lol

Going through a tote of Christmas decorations, I came across this package......

Lo and behold.....

Funny that the label on the left is now the current label, personally I always liked the other two better.

The date on the package is 1996, and it looks like you could close it up and mail it....hey wait a minute...thats almost 25 years ago.

It certainly was a nail biting and interesting race and George Russell demonstrated amazing skill and maturity in an unfamiliar car, out driving his team mate Bottas again and again. Mercedes certainly screwed up the tyres, but even after that George came back and worked up to 2nd and would have challenged to get the lead back if it wasn’t for a puncture. Fantastic drive. A future champion in the making.

Perez had a fantastic drive as well, going from last, after a first lap incident, to work his way through the entire grid to 3rd and then benefited from Mercedes screw up. To think that at the moment Perez doesn’t have a drive for next year.
 
Russel’s drive in the Merc demonstrates just how much uneven the field is in F1.
In the Williams he’s dead last.
Never scored an F1 point.

Jumps in Mercedes which he’s never driven before and looks like Lewis Hamilton.

So Maybe Hamilton is not all that better than the rest of the field.
He’s just lucky he’s in the best car.

Just saying.
Another example is Ferrari.
Every expert on TV agrees Ferrari car sucks now and Vettel can’t do anything anymore.
