In pharmacology, all drugs have two names, a trade name and generic name. Example, the trade name is Tylenol and it's generic name is Acetaminophen. Aleve is also called Naproxen... Amoxil is also called Amoxicillin and Advil is also called Ibuprofen. The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced that it has settled on the generic name of Mycoxafloppin. Also considered were Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course, Ibepokin. Pfizer Corp. announced today that Viagra will soon be available in liquid form, and will be marketed by Pepsi Cola as a power beverage suitable for use as a mixer. It will now be possible for a man to literally pour himself a stiff one.

I have and always will prefer the list based system: no ads, I get everything and I do not have to search for it through piles of threads leading to nowhere. My take is that web based forum email is just another tool to make the owner money. I don't disparage that, but it is not for me. Someone said they have pictures. Sure, but if you want pictures have the taker send them to you ... 99% of people don't want to see "your" pictures anyway (statistics made up on the spot, lol).. mayf Rick Byrnes wrote: > Oh common Doc, not even lurking?????? > ----- Original Message ----- From: "drmayf" > To: "Keith Turk" > Cc: "landspeed at autox.team.net" > Sent: Thursday, October 01, 2009 10:16 AM > Subject: Re: [Land-speed] Web site down > > >> Keith Turk wrote: >> >>> Hey maybe we can revive this then...

Compressor discharge was hot enough that leaving it un insulated actually helped lose about 60degrees f, but after the heat exchanger, insulating was desirable. I used Exhaust wrap, and experimented with water jacket around the 3" tube, and found them about the same. KISS SO, insulate at least the tubing downstream of the cooler. I cannot find the actual data and cannot remember the exact numbers, so this is my humble opinion.

Your frame is a highly stressed part. However, since you most likely didn't model it and perform FEA, we haven't a clue as to the magnitude or location of the highest stress. Holes can be a STRESS RAISER as well as stop crack propagation! In your case you don't want to promote cracks! Welding tabs to the frame would be the safest alternative. Hint: It is much easier to drill and tap all the tabs quickly and easily in the drill press before welding to the frame. From: "Jerry Foster" Subject: Web site down (snip . . . ) Do I screw the pan into the bottom of the frame rails, or should I weld on little tabs to attach the pan.

Thinking back a few years ago when all of the engineers had daily meetings and then went to the jobs trying to remember everything, taking quick notes hoping you could read etc. Then we started getting computers for every engineer and the world got closer. The internal e-mail answered a lot of questions and the programs and data shared with everyone on the projects. It only grew from there. What a great tool we have. Between this site and landracing .com they share many things and make a lot of new friendships at our LSR events.

(from mayf, hit delete now, lol) Message-ID: <4AC9F8CC.5050006@mayfco.com> Thanks to the few of you who answered I have enough experience and suggestions to complete the charge air ducting. A couple of the answers were to prevent the heat from getting to the ducting by insulating the source, ie headers. I already have them coated with some kind of high heat turbo coating although it is of a poor quality. As one said, the air flow is pretty quick and little time is available for serious heat transfer. So the first thing I do will be to do nothing and watch the charge air temps. If low enough then done... Again, many thanks to the one who replied! mayf ******************************************* Since walling in the motor in the Sunbeam, I find that the engine room gets quite hot. I will soon be using an ice water-air intercooler and that exposes a lot of duct work to the heat. And since it is aluminum it will reheat the chilled air to some degree. Anyone out there using insulation on their air ducting? If so, may I ask what it is and where to get it and your experience with it? mayf _______________________________________________ From lsr_man at yahoo.com Wed Oct 7 17:33:36 2009 From: lsr_man at yahoo.com (Dick J) Date: Wed, 7 Oct 2009 16:33:36 -0700 (PDT) Subject: [Land-speed] Trailer tie-down Message-ID: <879505.44633.qm@web30706.mail.mud.yahoo.com> I know this subject has been discussed in various places before, but I've never seen enough opinions one way or the other to make a decision.

Picture a hammer repeatedly smacking the balls or tapers on the exact same spot. The tapered or ball bearing as well as the raceway suffers from the repeated impacts. Similar to the flat spot on one's forehead from repeated smacks of amazement.

Jim in Palmdale Jim, My duty last Sunday at El Mirage was to put the Balloons out marking the course. We put two red balloons at the finish line, in eyesight of the timing lights. The lights are located before the finish line, not after. Hope that settles your argument.

I'm still being bombarded by hotelier emails - the same rooms we paid $200 a night last year are going for a bit less than half of that this year. This year I'm trying hard to convince myself that SEMA is just same old companies raising their personal crazyness-bar just a little more "over the top" than the year before. It's not working.....
