Success - Who Gets the Glory?
Success is rarely entirely due to an individual's own efforts, no matter how solitary the activity. Outside factors always play a part. Talent always has to be nurtured and equipment refined to create that winning margin. There is a big difference between being a winner and an also-ran. Yet the margins are tiny. For example, the average margin of victory in the Daytona 500 and Indianapolis 500 races over 10 years was 1.54 seconds! Yet the runner up earned less than half the winner! It hardly seems fair, does it? Yet these disparities are true in any endeavour, not just sport, although they are perhaps more noticeable in sport. And perhaps they are more pronounced in motor sport than any[..]
Putting Momentum in Your Meetings
Meetings can be a time for dynamic interaction or a time for mundane conversation and boredom. Momentum is the thing that makes the difference. But how do you keep ideas flowing, bullet points flying, and conversation brisk and exciting? The answer may surprise you. Preparation is what means the difference between good meetings and bad meetings. When you schedule a meeting the first thing you need to do is map the meeting out in your mind. Prepare your agenda carefully and with an eye to a seamless flow of topics. Jumping around from point to point will slow your meeting down as everyone switches gears. Just like a roadmap, plan your talking points like stops on a road to a specific[..]
Spring Break is right around the corner, and millions of students from around the country are ready for the big party. The hardest part of the vacation is deciding where to go. This is mainly due to the lack of money for most people. For those that are fortunate to have generous parents, Cancun or Cabo are always first on the list. I mean who would not want to party on the beaches in Mexico? They are beautiful, and MTV usually spices things up even more bringing great entertainment to add to the festivities. Although Cancun may be the most popular place to go, there are many other great places to party during Spring Break and some of them are hundreds of miles away fro the beach. Here is[..]

It was the US vacation destination of choice long before shows like Miami Vice and CSI Miami put its main city on the map.

Best Sports Families - It's All in the Wrists.....
When the Miami Dolphins took Samson Satele as the 60th overall pick of the 2007 NFL draft, and then took Reagan Mauia as the 181st overall pick, Satele and Mauia, distant cousins, joined the long line of relatives who have helped make sports a family affair. Though they have yet to prove themselves in professional sports, as they are both rookies, there is no telling whether this particular kin will be akin to winning. Still, they give us reason to remember that sometimes sports is quite literally all relative. The following is our list of the top athletes who owe at least some of their genius to their genus. The Mannings: There's a story of a man named Manning, who was busy with three[..]
The Sad Demise of the American USF1 Formula 1 Team
Formula 1 has always seemed to have a hostile relationship with America. It is difficult to know why, but there certainly seems to be a curse associated with the relationship. The news in 2009 that an American Formula 1 team would be launched was met with much ado. Alas, the USF1 Team never even made to the track and has now been permanently banned from the sport. The team was the idea of Peter Windsor and Ken Anderson. Both had a long history in motorsports and Windsor in particular had been involved in the running of major teams like McLaren. The two promised a new way of running a team in a financially responsible manner. The promises were never kept. USF1 looked to be in trouble from[..]

This is the first part of the story of my own unlikely route into the world of motorsports - with any luck it can provide inspiration for those standing on the outside and looking in, wondering if maybe one day they could do the same. The adventure began on Valentines Day 2007 when I opened an anonymous looking letter to read the words "delighted to inform you that you are one of three successful candidates for the 2007 Scottish Legends Championship Scholarship." Having entered it more as a laugh than anything else while I scrimped the pennies to try and go racing for the first time in some way, shape or form during the year, I have to admit to being very shocked to have received it. I'd[..]
The Jimmie Johnson Era
As Jimmie Johnson closes in on his third consecutive Sprint Cup championship, it is time for all fans, and that includes haters of the 48, to concede that we are smack dab in the middle of the Jimmie Johnson era. Some fans will argue that Johnson’s success is due to superlative equipment supplied by Hendrick Motorsports. However, he consistently outperforms all of his teammates, including the four-time champion and future Hall of Famer Jeff Gordon. Others will bemoan his achievements due to his personality, or lack thereof. To the majority of fans, especially traditional fans, he is considered vanilla, or bland. However, you cannot argue with success. Johnson entered NASCAR's[..]

Philippe Etancelin - Privateer
Philippe Etancelin's racing career was unique in several ways. It spanned four decades from 1926 until 1952. When he placed fifth in the Italian Grand Prix in 1950 he became, at age 53, the oldest driver who scored championship points. And, at the inception of the F-1 Championship in 1950, Philippe was also 53 when he made his debut. He drove in twelve World Championship F1 Grands Prix prior to retiring from motor sports in 1952. And as a trademark, he wore a 1920's style tweed cap, turned in reverse so that the visor was in the back. When helmets became mandatory, he simply wore the cap on top of the helmet. He was 56 years old when he drove his last race and in spite of the fact his[..]

Terry Labonte's Darlington Dreams
It was the year 1978 that the NASCAR rookie Terry Labonte took his chances on one of the most unforgiving and aggressive tracks on the Nascar circuit. This track happened to be Darlington Raceway. With 21 years experience and a stellar career in Nascar, Terry Labonte is once again about to try this track and all its glory. This track has a very peculiar shape, where it is meant to be an oval yet it more represents an egg in shape. This is by no means a track for the faint of heart; it will shock and startle the best of veterans, and rattle the wet behind the ears rookies. Pretty scary when you consider that this was the track that Terry Labonte decided to make their Nascar debut. What is[..]

Ohio Slots - What's Next?
Ohio Slots - Coming Soon Playing the slots (video lottery terminals) will soon be a reality in Ohio as state officials finally came to an agreement about this issue. With 2,500 machines planning on being installed at all the seven horse tracks by the end of the summer, the state estimates that this decision will bring in approximately $933 million. Many states have begun using this strategy to help provide state tax revenue and help with budget issues. Although many organizations disagree with this decision, the potential additional income brought in by this decision can make a big difference with helping the state financially.

The extensive delays at last weekend's Daytona 500 stand as an abrupt reminder that pothole season is just around the corner. To avoid considerable repair costs, it is crucial to know how to drive through potholes and how to best react after doing so. If you are driving at a fast enough speed where you cannot avoid hitting a pothole, there are a few things that you should do before impact to save your car from unnecessary damage. Although it may sound simple, the best thing that you can do before hitting a pothole is slow down. Many drivers subscribe to the theory that one can avoid a pothole by flying over it with great speed, but unfortunately the laws of gravity rarely allow this[..]
In a World of Men, the First Female Team Owner...
While it’s true that Teresa Earnhardt is the owner and CEO of Dale Earnhardt Incorporated, many people think that she inherited the title after the death of her husband in 2001, which isn’t true. Even before that, Teresa was a co-owner with Dale. Say the name Teresa Earnhardt and people think and say a wide range of things, some of which isn’t printable here. Why is it that this North Carolina born daughter of a sportsman racer and niece of a legendary Busch Series driver has gained so much of a reputation, both good and bad? You may as well ask why it is that any time any woman breaks into the world of men they gain a reputation. Teresa was born in 1958 in Hickory, North Carolina,[..]
The Fastest Driving Route to Florida
Have you ever wondered what the fastest driving route to Florida is? Well, if you live in the northeastern United States or in the Canadian province of Ontario, read on!

With a neon orange leather strap that seems to sparkle off the wrist, these are timepieces for those who aren't afraid of being different. Invicta Lupah Watches such as the Invicta Speedway are unisex and it is common for only the most confident of men to wear them as they will likely withstand many stares.

Raphael Picards Vision Comes True With Invicta...
An Invicta Men's Watch epitomizes the vision of founder Raphael Picard, established back in 1837 to make world-famous Swiss timekeeping available at moderate prices. Over a century and a half later, his descendants have expanded the label to offer models not just for timekeeping but also as fashion statements. Thus we are presented with something like I. Lupah watches, which can be considered an Invicta men's watch despite their rather unisex contemporary styling. More or less it is considered a unisex watch and can be worn by practically every one. "Invicta" means "invincible" in Latin, and their new and improved watches are sturdy and solid for everyday use. This watch is hardly[..]
Jimmie Johnson Wins First Championship The math was easy. All he had to do was finish 12th or better, and the championship would be his. That's what everyone was telling Jimmie Johnson leading up to the Ford 400 yesterday at Homestead-Miami Speedway. That sounds easy to a team that has averaged a top 2 finish over the past 5 races and a top 10 finish throughout the entire 2006 season. However, if you think the championship was a lock for Jimmie going into the Ford 400, think again. Throughout the Ford 400, Jimmie calmly overcame a number of obstacles; a piece of debris flying through his grill, near misses on 2 wrecks, and a hard charging Matt Kenseth looking to win his second[..]
Local Stock Car Short Track Nostalgia
as your earliest memory of auto racing? I remember watching a weekly TV show called "Jalopy Races From Hollywood". This was my earliest memory of having interest in following the sport of auto racing. One of my most favorite memories when growing up in the 50's and 60's was being able to hear the auto racing action [stock cars and open cockpit midget] at Freeport Speedway in Freeport New York, from two [2] towns away. They ran races during the summer on Tuesday night, Friday night, and Saturday night. Going to the races as a spectator was also a rush for me. I loved everything about it, the smell of racing fuel, burning rubber, sawdust and hot dogs from the food concessions. During the[..]

Saving money and investing it is not a sprint, it is a marathon. If you want your family to be in peace tomorrow, develop a marathon mentality for investment today. 1. Go at Your Own Speed: You may not be the number one, but you are not likely going to be the last, some will definitely pull out along the way. Do not buy what others are buying because they are buying it and never buy to impress because the people you want to impress are not really impressed. 2. Avoid Glamour and Glory: Spending money is like a sprint, it brings you premature glamour and glory. It makes you to be noticed, but if you must build a wealthy family, you must avoid this. Using big car may bring you a glamour,[..]
2008 BMW M3 Test Drive Impressions
Before the day of the test drive, I have never seen the 2008 M3 in person. I have seen photos in magazines and BMW's website. I thought the 2008 M3 looked beautiful in those photos, but when I actually saw the car in person, I was shocked by its good looks. The aggressive stance of the M3 stood out the most. The car looked fast even when it was standing still. I could not wait to drive it and see what the car can do. BMW claims the M3 as a race car in street clothing. My test drive began by driving the M3 from Los Angeles to Willow Springs race way. The two hour trip was mostly on L.A.'s congested freeway. The M3 behaved very well in traffic. Through rough pavements and[..]
Canadian Cattle will be leaping a little into the future shortly. Cattle producers in Canada will have to tag all of their calves and cattle with Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) ear tags. The Canadian Cattle Identification Agency (CCIA) has set a date of July 1st. 2010 as the day that all Canadian cattle must be tagged with a CCIA Approved RFID ear tag. Visual ear tags will no longer be used in the Canadian Livestock Tracking System (CLTS) for their national animal traceability system. July 1st. is also Canada Day; so on Canada's birthday Canadian cattle go techno with RFID. The Canadian Food and Inspection Agency (CFIA) will be enforcing the new mandatory regulation for livestock.[..]

Renewable Energy entrepreneurs are now looking for the best bioreactors with the right stuff. What is the right stuff you ask? Well it has to be a algae farm that meets a number of challenges: be affordable, scalable, able to handle variable temperatures at different client sites. Low Cost of Implementation The first area of concern is always the cost. As with all systems of a commercial scale, cost is king. The technology at this point has many faces to include row crops, large open pond systems, race way systems and photo-bioreactors. Thy system you choose must have nutrients to feed the algae, water and sunlight. Your carbon dioxide inputs can be active or ambient air. Cross[..]

For the connoisseurs of shopping a visit to the Merry Hill Shopping Complex in the UK is a must. Boasting more than 150 shops and various brands beneath a single roof, the car park can accommodate a minimum of 10,000 vehicles at a time. Should anyone think the exterior is imposing, the interior on the other hand is decked in brass and marble. The surroundings of the complex are so serene it is almost unbelievable. Every trip in the elevator is one of wonder and offers amazing views of fountains and other such additions. The complex has even been hailed as the finest shopping experience in Europe. The shopping complex is open during the week; however, Saturday is perhaps the busiest day.[..]
The Immersion Technique
If you've ever studied a foreign language and suddenly surprised yourself by knowing or saying a word that you didn't know you knew (!), then, you've just proved that ‘immersion' as a technique to learn a second or foreign language, works. I found myself doing just that when I was studying French. There I was, having a rather stilted, but very enthusiastic conversation with mon amie, when suddenly and quite unexpectedly, I found myself answering her "je ne sais pas," with "non, moi non plus." I didn't actively learn it - I'm sure my teacher never taught it to me, or wrote it on the board, or got us to repeat it - but my clever old brain had somehow picked up the fact, maybe from[..]

Excellent Reasons To Own A Tonneau Cover
If you have a truck, adding a tonneau cover is a necessity. Why? Because they provide you with an organized storage for whatever you transport. It also provides coverage from weather conditions, like rain, snow and extreme sun. 1. What are Tonneau Covers? Your pick-up truck has a bed that is used to transport items. These beds are usually exposed to the weather. Tonneau covers provide shelter for the items stored in your truck bed. They turn your truck bed into a sheltered compartment. They are different, however, from camper shells that turn the truck bed into a camp-like compartment. 2. History of Tonneau Covers Tonneau covers are also known as truck bed covers. They have evolved from[..]
Are Radar Jammers Worth the Price to Pay?
For most people, driving the speed limit is just common sense. The safer you drive, the less likely you are to be in an accident. Unfortunately, not everyone feels that way. There are, and will always be, a select group of people who forget that highways are not international speedways. For these people, avoiding a speeding ticket can be tricky. With the use of radar jammers, however, it is becoming increasingly common for them to avoid being caught. A radar detector jammer scrambles the signals emitted from detector radar devices, allowing the speeder to get away. Radar jammers, as the name signifies, are compact devices used primarily to scramble detector radar signals, particularly[..]
The Popularity Of Gas RC Cars
if I told you that you could be in the driver's seat of a fully loaded Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, Volvo or professional race car? And what if I told you that it would only cost you a few hundred dollars? Would you believe me? Probably not, but the truth is that any one of these cars can be yours for a fraction of the cost and on a smaller scale of these popular sports cars when you buy gas remote control cars. Remote control cars are not new. We all remember the cars we grew up playing with. These cars usually were attached to the control pad by wires and topped out at a few mph. Not so today. Advanced technology has led to the production of exact replicas of the most desired cars and the[..]
bed covers are attachments to the pickup truck bed and serve as protection against all weathers and of course from theft. Such protection allows you to store items in the bed away from the damage of weather and from the prying eyes of thieves. Unlike truck attachments such as camper shells, bed covers do not provide additional vertical cargo space. Bed covers are most useful when you want your truck to maintain a low profile or when you wish for your truck to have be able to move the cover for its beds easily. Truck bed cover helps save gas! As air flows over the front end of your vehicle, it careens into the hollow bowl of your bed and produces opposite force to your truck moving[..]
Dreaming of Owning a Race Car? Get a Cheap...

Through the Cold War days of the Fifties and early Sixties Ford dreamed of developing Ranger airbag safety , eventually refining the breed with the 352- and 390- inch FE" engines-engines that were to become the building blocks for the strong mills yet to find dimension on Dearborn's drafting tables. While the blue oval' was becoming a legend on the super speedways, it wasn't until 1992 that Ford expanded its auto airbag program to encompass the Ford Ranger-a move coinciding with some new releases which were finally affording the nameplate a measure of respect on the streets, This came in the form of a 92 Ford Ranger with two versions of the 406, a 385-horse, single 4-barrel and a[..]

A truck bed cover enables you to keep items safe from detection by thieves, from unnecessary damage, and from the effects of weather. Unlike camper shells and other truck accessories, a truck bed cover will not give you extra storage space. 1. Save money on gas. As your vehicle moves, air passes over it and directly into the empty space of your truck bed, creating forces that slow down your truck. These forces require that your engine consume more gas than a normal vehicle would have to use. Truck bed covers will improve the aerodynamics of your vehicle by reducing the forces that normally drag your truck. By using a truck bed cover, you can potentially save up to 10% of your annual gas[..]
Increase Your Speed by Drafting!
On super speedways, racers use the technique of drafting to increase their speed. Drafting is when one car tucks in behind another car, lessening the effect of drag from the air. Basically two or more cars running in a line can go faster than one car by itself. Resistance from the air is drastically reduced when in the draft. This technique can be used in life as well. I know this is going to come as a shock to some of you, but whatever problem or goal you have has been had by someone before you. Why are you fighting the resistance by yourself? Why not follow someone who has been there before? You could drastically reduce the drag on your own life by tucking in behind someone who has[..]
An Epic Ride
"Mile for mile, the most challenging (race) I've ever done." This quotes the 2003 "Grand Loop" speed record holder. His record has since been broken. Heed his words or read no further. I can not be responsible for the consequences if you are not heedful. This ride is not for ninnies. Those might die trying. Of all the activities I enjoy, I find that bicycling is the thing that most unencumbers my spirit. There is a 390 mile mountain bike trail (includes Colorado National Monument mileage. I've seen estimates as low as 370 miles but better over prepared than under prepared, right?) available in the Great Basin Desert and mountains of Colorado and Utah that I hope will do the same for[..]
David Pearson, a three-time NASCAR Nextel Cup champion, is second on the all-time win list with 105, second only to Richard Petty. His Winston Cup driving career spanned from 1960-1986.
