    Shift happens!

    The people involved seem to have worked things out.

    The involved mothers never pursued their suspicions.

    PS- be careful of Wikipedia- they have a few howlers in there.

    Awwm Hifi, do not be so harsh...

    A (NASCAR) stock car is a production car (Impala, Camry, etc.) that is not really stock. The Camry V6 engine is a Double Overhead Cam (DOC) variable timing multivalve engine, and to build a stock car this engine is then replaced with a pushrod V8. All NASCAR stock cars use pushrod V8 engines. A reinforcing/roll cage is welded inside the car and the doors are welded shut for greater body strength and stiffness. And so on. This is how a stock car is built. All clear, now?

    LOL, I suggested a google search for one of his other stupid questions. My harshness is really directed at those who continue to allow this to continue and then wonder why there is nobody posting here.
