DinRunn?

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.

Gone hunting with Alec Baldwin and Dick Cheney. Back soon.

I know a guy who (temporarily) has possession of a gold-plated bearing that might make an appearance at said BBQ...
How much will it cost to view this golden icon?

Roughly $40 for round trip shipping plus a $400 deposit refundable on its safe return.

So if you are in the SD area and want to see it, now is your chance on the cheap! You do have to suffer Schnelly's presence though so a risk of losing $400 might be better...

If you're gonna be out here, we're doing SOMETHING, even if it's just hanging out and whacking Gnat's bearing around with a couple of putters...

Understeer: You will hit the wall with the front end.
Oversteer: You will hit the wall with the rear end.
Horsepower: How hard you will hit the wall.
Torque: How far you will move the wall.

I'm interested in the renndidnt run. We should pitch in for a taco man!

Also, where does Renn come from? Why isn't it PorscheRun? OutpostRun?
