LIVE! From the PRI Show - Page 4

Nitro Joe Jackson · 12-14-2014, 11:09 AM

I was there, got around a lot on Thursday, (over did it) and got around some on Friday, but was struggling. If I missed you I didn't mean to, did see a lot of people.
Now time to play grandpa for a bit .
I wish I could of got around as good as my father did at the show! (that's us in the picture)

The PRI show is like going to the candy store with all the candy outside of the glass case. And yes some of the show is "eye candy". The cool thing is the completion is at the same vender booth, or seminar that I was attending. So this makes me think I'm looking in the correct places for product info and knowledge, now I just need someone to understand it for me!

I enjoy looking at other types of cars to see what might apply to my old mule to put a little more ''get'' in the giddy-up.

If you are a gearhead it needs to be on your list.

The most frightening stuff is the computer, GPS, run tracing, infrared, and the information in real time feedback.

Larry, I hate to see how many Super class cars have this, its just got to be total bull that you have to win using this stuff

Hill, just cause that stuff is Grade 8 and you are Grade 1 in comprehension, don't worry. Most of the smart people are in Super Classes or got New Cars which are no longer in your class. So rest easy big guy!!!

This stuff has already penetrated far past the Super classes or just new car folks. I pitted with one of the young bright Super Class guys once and got enough insight to know it's not rocket science, just modern technology applied and anybody who can learn basic computing can do it. If it's not policed it will drive out the "traditional" racers. The other threads on this subject can give you only some of the insight into what is going on....makes the matty box stone age.

Well please tell all. The more people know the more it can be policed. I just recently comprehended what the Matty box was. I heard about it back then but didn't really care to know what it was. If they've got something out that is the same or worse then expose it. Hiding it will only let them get by with it longer.
