This car makes an advertised 3,500 horsepower, that's just nuts. There's in-car footage out there of this thing driving around that Viper like it's tied to a tree stump and that's as the viper is ripping off a 200 mph run...

I've seen the Facebook rumors and I've also seen people in the military say they know nothing about it.

Went to Kroger yesterday morning, not a soul there just really chill. Tried to go after wife got home and it was madness, like worse than before Thanksgiving madness. People just buying shit to buy it that you don't need in an "emergency" situation. I saw a person with a Jack Fruit in their cart with a bunch of random stuff, I bet that mother fucker didn't even know what that was lol. Thankfully, we started preparing a while ago so we don't need anything, we just were looking to the cat some treats and nope'd right out of that cunty bitch.

The supply chain disruption was the first thing that jumped into my mind when this whole thing started. I hope there will be changes, but i doubt there will be because that requires difficult and painful decisions to be made. We're stocked up on essentials for a short emergency lockdown but we're going to keep adding to what we have each week when we go to the story. Worse case is that in a few months I'll have to find a way to make good food with all this canned stuff.

For those who actually still race on Columbus Racing that is a good thing for sure.

I was going to suggest some spots in Grandview for sure.

Got some friends coming into town for the Arnold and they are looking for local places to check out in Columbus. I've got some ideas on where to send them but what are some of the top Columbus joints recommended by CR?

Oh it's straight wrecking the supply chain across the board. I really hope this acts as a wake up call to some people, but I doubt it will because people are dumb. Another thing I find so interesting is the words different "media" outlets use to talk about the virus and everything surrounding it. Totally fascinating to see the attempts at control that are being made. My grandmother is in hospice and my mom has talked with the staff there about the situation and they agree with my thought process: be more worried about people's reactions to the virus than the virus itself. I trust them because they are legit medical professionals.

This is the way.... In other news, CoronaVirus is causing problems in the high-performance industry since we get so much of our product from China. I'm having to change my engine build right now because the company I"m working with can't get a crank from its supplier in China.

I got water, I got canned goods, and I got plenty of protection devices. I just need to make sure I have gas for the generator on hand just in case. Real talk, I'm not sure what to believe at this point because the news is trash.

That's part of the job and what makes for great TV. I'm glad he was okay, that could have ended really bad on many levels.

I was standing a ways back from the starting line and saw it happen, it was scary to see the car go that high in the air. When I went to interview him he had to pry his grandaughter off because she was in full meltdown mode over it. The next morning he posted a picture of himself doing cardio at the gym hotel and he was fine. It shows how important safety gear really is for sure.

So I was given the opportunity at work to be the on air talent for our broadcast of the biggest radial tire race of the year and I jumped at it. I've never done anything like this before and let me tell you it was INSANE, fun, but just a whole new level of work. I got about 4 hours of sleep on Friday going into saturday and then had to be "on" during our 18 hour broadcast anytime I had to do interviews. Here is one of the most insane things that happened during the event. We were on the starting line when this went down, had to jump on a golf cart and haul ass to the top end to get the interview and then sprint back about a 1/8th mile to get this highlight uploaded with the interview....

Provided I can get everything done I need to Saturday I'll stop by.

Like I said on Facebook, that price is crackhead cheap for a track rental with that many cars.

The best way to describe it is a bunch of people coming in and talking down to you, how you live your life, saying you need to change to make them happy, and they're offended by everything. One of our script writers lived in Idaho, went to work in Cali, got sick of the bullshit, moved back home, and is now pissed because the Californians are invading there. Some problem in parts of Oregon and Washington.

No doubt, I've heard some horror stories of "them" going to other states and throwing fits over things, cringy is the best word to describe it. If you do move to SA let me know and I can hook you up with some of the locals I know.

I know a few people out there through the local drag strip and it seems nice. I don't think that part of Texas is suffering from the California invasion so you should be good there. Just stay away from places like Austin and such that have had an influx of those types, they are making it difficult to enjoy Texas.

If I was in a position to make a poor financial decision I would love to purchase this vehicle.

Pro Line does advertise with us...... Price tag on one of those starts at around $50,000 They actually used to do a lot of LS stuff but kind of got out of that game and just push these 481x type of engines.

After some exploratory surgery on Friday it was discovered the engine in The Red Dragon is terminally ill and needed to be put down. That engine had a good run all things considered and it will be interesting to see what made it sick when we do the autopsy later. With that being said, after the new car is done and running it will be time to start putting together the new combo for the car. Not 100% sure what route we will be going but it will be pushing the limits of the current roll bar that's in the car for sure....

Suggestions for what to use for a build? I might be swayed to make a poor financial decision here...

I saw someone try to seriosly imply this was a thing and we also caused the earthquske in PR to cover it up. I think that same person is also an anti-vaxer...
