    How long since your last ticket? how many times have you talked your way out of one?

    One day back in band camp I was going to work I got pulled over 3x on the way. All stops and tickets were within a 25 minute period. 1 was speeding, 1 was impeding traffic, 1 was too low. Another time I got pulled over and received a 3 page ticket, this ticket took well over an hour to write...

    How long since your last ticket? how many times have you talked your way out of one?

    Have had lots of tickets, got out of a few along the way. Haven’t had a ticket since 2010. I’m old, drive less, drive slower and have a Cdl, don’t need issues.

    I did that 30 years ago, same thing dude gave me the class a test and said I had my permit for class a which I didn’t want. Showed me the 5 question test then took it away and I got the endorsement until my license renewed and they forgot to put it back on

    What I am shocked at after looking at this again is that with a non commercial class a you cannot even tow a box trailer that weighs 10000lbs or more

    The other world that’s getting beat up over lack of licensing is the horse people, they are pulling these gooseneck horse trailers with living quarters that are not considered rv’s even. Race trailers with names on trailer starts leaning towards commercial All of these require a Cdl. I won’t...

    That appears to only be applicable to rv’s, but without reading the whole section of the vehicle code it’s hard to tell. This is why I got a Cdl, I never know what I might wast to drive tomorrow. I didn’t get passenger endorsements or haz mat though. One thing that caught me off guard...

    10k and you need a commercial or non commercial Exception: with the class c Rv trailer endorsement you can pull a 5th wheel Rv trailer up to 15k, this is like a 10 question test

    It’s been the law as long as I remember, rarely enforced. There are differences in the licenses get the commercial book and read about the differences. I think you have to go through a school now on the commercial license.

    Bad rv fire tonight. Pad 2

    My buddy had this happen in 1994 or 1995, we were out on a ride and came back to a smoldering frame (camp was hard to find). His brother had rolled in just as it was starting to smoke and wondered when we installed the fireplace. He was able to go in throw a few things out the door and salvage...

    Motorhome & Enclosed or 5th wheel and why?

    I kinda liked the 5th wheel better when I had that for the desert. Was never really afraid of getting stuck within reason of course(4x4 dually). The Motorhome is way better for everything else though.

    Holley HP won't spark

    I was chasing an issue with a fueltech starting issue, fueltech instructions call for cam sync to use the 5v but in further tech and reading we were instructed to use 12/16v for cam sync if we had a weak signal. Not sure about Holley though

    Eff me and the 2 years of my life

    that’s a good catch. We just had bad luck, and lack of being able to test. We get 3-4 races a year and a weekends worth of track time is under 20 seconds of data. The problem didn’t arise in pits or at home, only under load. Ugghh
