...Wilcox, go to www.photobucket.com and register there, set up an album and then you can link photos from there by selecting the image icon when you are writing a post and cut and pasting the link to your photo at p'bucket between the [IMG] banners.....

Nice car, you are probably going to have to reduce the size of the pic to smallest to get it into the avatar.

I have been lurking here since 2004.  This site is one of my top 3 (jalopnik,HAMB) to look at every day.  I have sucked up plenty of bandwidth in the last 4+ years.  Hopefully my previous contributions have covered it.  2004 was also my first year on the salt.  I was going to help my uncle with his car and have been fortunate enough to get to participate since then.  In 2006, I was unfortunate and went shiny side down.  It has been the biggest thrill of my life to get the opportunity to do this.  I can't get enough of LSR.  Yes, I have the sickness.  I hope I can add to the value of this great site.  I, like many, missed it when it was down in March.

Last year, a friend of mine in Wichita, Ks introduced me to Bob Steele, who in turn introduced me to Max Lambky.  2008 was my first trip to the 'great white dyno' and now my long time friend 'tzoom' and I are beginning to think about contemplating something to haul out there.  I have been lurking for several months but decided to take the plunge and introduce myself.  See ya' there!

Okay,  I sent a contribution via the instructions on the site.  Hope it helps a little and hope to do more down the road.  Have a good holiday folks.  Now to go figure out that photobucket deal!  :wink:

Welcome Todd, Tzoom and Milton, and anyone else I might have missed.  Todd, the duc would be fun to ride a Bub.... I am thinking of taking the 1000 if I can squeak it into the rules...

Been involved in Motor racing of one type or another for about 30+ years getting too old (and unfit) to be banging wheels on speedway, or rallying.

Went to Lake Gairdner in South Australia a few years ago and got a big rush of blood, love the engineering challenges of these things, so bought a Gas turbine and in the process of building a streamliner.

Still trying to get me head around a lot of the intricacies of these things, they seem to all back to front from what I am used to.


All race cars are as light as the rules will allow......Right?

Polar moments are as low as possible..... Right?

Plenty of down force forget drag.... Right?

Widest tyres... traction is everything....Right?

Plenty of lock on high speed steering.....Right?

....WRONG......

Oh well plenty of time on the drawing board (cad) to come....

All posts indicate whether the writer is a "Newbie", "Full Member", "Hero Member", etc.  I've searched the site over and over to try and figure out how these "ranks" are determined but haven't found it yet. I'm sure it must be based on number of posts, or time on line, but I was wondering where the breaks are.  Anybody know?  Dick J

Quite you newbie...only talk amongst the rest of your kind... :-D

Texas Dick, post count, but that part is not really too important, being a hero member doesn't make your posts any more valid than being a newbie on the site.  Lately a few old LSR guys signed up here and are newbies while a LSR newbie signed up and posted so much he was a hero member.  Don't let the titles steer you astray.  Post count does not always show you know something.... enjoy LSR, we are all here to have fun between races  :-D
