This past weekend I was talking to a retired Fairfax County cop at a local pistol match. Left after 20-some years and certainly had some very interesting insights about the area after seeing it evolve for 20 years.
I started thinking about this, but didn't get a chance to ask him, so I'll...
Hey guys,
I have my first USPSA qualifier match coming up soon and I was wondering if anyone else on board competes? I was also considering IDPA but the USPSA competitions are a better logistical fit for me given my schedule and whatnot.
I don't expect much for my first time out, but if...

Locally we have an excellent bike trail that runs from Arlington to Leesburg, VA. Wife and I walked about 10 miles of it this weekend and are looking to grab a pair of road bikes to bike it.
Now I understand in this realm the sky is the limit as far as bike pricing. What I'm interested in...

Came out from work today and saw a big ass puddle right behind the drivers side front wheel well. I immediately popped the hood and checked the following fluid levels:
Coolant (both rad and ic): full
Oil: full
Brake Fluid : full
I couldn't find the power steering fluid.
The liquid is...
Post Mortem - Dick Winters dies; WWII hero commanded 'Band of Brothers'
Major Richard Winters, CO of Easy Company during D-Day and the following invasion of Europe, died last night in central PA. You know him best from Band Of Brothers, where he commentated the story of Easy Company. He is...
Well I got to thinking the other day about the races that I'd like to eventually see at the track with my L. So far I've come up with the following:
Ram SRT-10
Jeep SRT-8
TBSS
1500 SS (hey, everyone needs an easy one)
Gen1 L
Typhoon/Syclone
As you can see, I'm trying to go for an...
Sorry to borrow your thunder here Jim (trust me I'll return in later).
I have a science question of my own for you guys today. It was inspired by an Astro homework set from college. I'll put the question in its simplest form.
There is a single, simple physical principle which eliminates...
So I got to thinking the other day, that I don't really know what goes on biologically to our bodies while we sleep. Why do humans need to sleep? We've all know it's to relax and recharge, but that's management talk. I want to know what sleeping actually does for us, in scientific terms. Any...
Ok guys, I think I have a decent handle on this, but I'd welcome other opinions.
Here's what happened:
Truck was tuned on Tuesday. During the tune, the tuner removed my driver's side rear O2 sensor to install his wideband for tuning purposes. Tuner re-installed O2 sensor when the tune...
Race factors into evaluation of Gerhart - NFL - Yahoo! Sports
Wow.
PALO ALTO, Calif. – If you’ve seen Toby Gerhart carry the football, you’re well aware that the former Stanford halfback and Heisman Trophy runner-up is about as subtle as Iron Man. It’s no surprise, then, that as the...
Well I finally washed the thing, and here are the pictures.
Please don't give me crap about the pics themselves, I'm not a photographer.
The paint is far from perfect, but it's a 9 year old truck, and a semi-DD at that. All in all I'm pleased. I don't love the stock rims, but I haven't...
Anyone check these out yet? I was going to pick up a Sig P229 but the owner no longer wishes to sell, so I'm out hunting 9mm's. The 19 round mags look interesting. I just don't know that I like the look of it compared to the old XDs.

So I have a set of TR6's to go into the L, but I was wondering what plug wires were popular with the Gen2 crowd? My knowledge of the plug wire game is zip. Thanks in advance.
Just picked up an 01 with stockers on. I haven't found a set of rims I love for the L yet, so the stockers will remain.
Anyone have any good ideas? My L is red FYI. I don't LOVE chrome, but I don't hate it either (just a bitch to keep clean).
Hello guys,
I just picked up an 01 L and I'm looking to get it on the dyno, see what it makes and what the current tune looks it. Right now I know it's running a bit rich, so I'm not in any immediate need, but after I get this new set of TR6's in I'd like to get it tuned.
So anyone know...

Does anyone have any recommendations on anti-fog products for windshields and the like? The one criticism I have off my focus is that the windows tend to fog pretty fast. I've never used this stuff before and if I'm going to do this, I'm going to do it right.
Hello there again folks. I've since moved to Reston and am about to start the painful process of moving all my car-related stuff to VA. I was wondering if anyone had the inside scoop on a decent inspection station near Reston? If not I was just going to head to the closest Ford dealership but...
Hey guys/gals, it looks like my girl and I are going to be moving from where we live now (between Rockville and Gaithersburg) to the Reston area.
Anyone from around there? Have any do's/don'ts? We will be renting for a year or two until we have a serious down payment saved up for a decent...
