No, this friend finds auto racing abhorrent because they’re burning too much fuel out there.  Don’t they know we’re in a crisis?  

As it turns out, they do.  Many of the short-trackers across this great and wasteful land are feeling the pinch of $4 diesel and $8.25 racing fuel and either limiting their races or bailing entirely.  Families may stop coming to the track to save money.  People may be forced to… we dunno… drive to jobs instead of driving to the track.

(We haven’t heard our friend’s opinion on eating contests yet because we opted for the “three conversations a week” plan, but we’re sure our friend is against eating, too.)

A-ha.  Ol’ Tuffy’s got a solution for the problem, though:

Really, there’s no problem that can’t be solved by YouTube.  YouTube or booze.  Hey…

We should be in charge of alternative fuels.  And eating. We’re so good at this.
