I was not moved, it was not good, was not terrible. Would've fit well in that MEH commercial.

No, no it doesnt! I watched the experts (red flag) and just sat there scratching my head. Just launching into the air. Thing of beauty. But certifiable. Lol

I want to try the trails over near Forest Hills. Not exactly endurance racing, but it looks fun.

Does your little man have all that riding gear as in the pic?
Edit, not sure what I did above. Fat fingers, small keyboard.
Yup, caught a great sale at Rocky Mountain. Picked up some nice gear and glad I did. It rained every Friday after Christmas so all the tracks were slick on the following Saturday. Dude must've ate it 50 times. But, he brushed himself off and got right back after it. He really does have a blast. Tons of kids out there, too. I had no idea how popular it was.
My old man wouldve had me mow grass for ten years to afford my own dirtbike, I was lucky to save enough for a BMX bike.

What age and what size bike did you get your Lil Baw?
He's 10, listened to the interwebs and started him on a Honda CRF110F. Thing runs like a sewing machine.
He'll probably outgrow it pretty quick, though.

MX is Terrifying
Posted by geauxturbo on 2/7/26 at 7:20 pm
Got my kid a dirtbike for Christmas and decided to join him on the MX track. He can ride for like 5 hours straight. I was lucky to finish 30 minutes.
I've been pretty fast at everything I do automtive, online or IRL. Won two regional autocross championships, placed 2nd in a rock crawling comp, was the fastest Louisiana online racer on GT for years.
But those two wheels scared the hell out of me. Lol. I was super happy if I got 3 feet of air time (as in distance, not height). The jump face is like a vertical ascention to the heavens. I'm like ya, pin it, go for it! Then, quickly come to reality...naw...dont want to fly just yet. I'll just hop it. Then the front tire goes vertical and Im doing all I can not to wisky throttle the thing. After you survive alititude chaos, you go to turn and the ruts are just as terrifying!
You guys that fly through the air like superman and zip around turns, tip of the hat. Mad skills.
I was on a YZ250F, did good to avoid dying. I think. Side note. After 3 laps I felt like I ran 3 miles. WTF.
If any of yall are into scaring the hell out of yourself while exercising, get a dirtbike.

If there wasnt a Carrier group deployed.

Just say whatever is opposite of what is done and sound enraged. No rational thought required.

It must be quite the job
Yes, I work at work. Novel concept, I know. And I drive company truck so I cant take my car to get it inspected at lunch. Hour and ten minute commute on top of that.
So yes, its a bit of a pain in the arse to get my fricking perfectly running vehicle inspected.
And its not my plates, those I can renew online, its the State Police tax on my windshield. Just add the tax to my registration.

I work, which is why I dont currently have a valid inspection sticker. Lol.
If I break the law I pull over and take my lumps. Its called accountability.
My problem with police is not that they enforce the law, I rather prefer that they do.
My prolem is that so many police do not take accountability when they blatantly ignore the Constitution, are shown to be incompetent, or themselves break the law.

More democrat voters and representation by whatever means necessary. The ends justify the means. They feel they are on the moral high ground and are FAR too psycho to realize they are just thieves and fraudsters.

re: Idiot here, how complicated is a coolant flush?
Posted by geauxturbo on 1/21/26 at 9:58 pm to BigBinBR
I would flush it with Prestone radiator flush if it had that many miles. Just follow the instructions.
Coolant has anticorrosives in it. They get used up over time and the "flush" removes that corrosion/scale which can block coolant passages or reduce heat transfer.
I would also replace the hoses, thermostat, cap, and the water pump.
If you just drain and fill, thats certainly better than nothing. You need the anticorrisives to be replenished.
I dont let mechanics near any of my vehicles, so no. I would not let Lube Express do it.
