  • There are pretty strict restrictions on most aspects of the cars, even as much as to limit top speed for safety through various means, including aerodynamics.

    Other than acceleration, I’m not sure that an EV would benefit much against a current NASCAR, unless they can find a way to get more range on a charge than there is with fuel.

    And even though this is all pretty hypothetical right now, these racers crash a lot, and between the extra weight and explosiveness of batteries, I wonder if we’ll ever see EVs in NASCAR.



  • I’m fortunate enough that my last and current jobs have been accommodating if I need to duck out for an appointment. In general the expectation is to make up the time, but that’s flexible depending on how much time is missed.

    Other than that, I decided to not have children, so it’s just my wife, me, and our dogs. My wife is 100% wfh, and I’m wfh 3 days a week, so we always have someone here when needed.

    Before that when I worked retail and there was no leeway, I neglected things I need to do like going to the DMV, doctor and dentist appointments, and other things that technically could wait, but shouldn’t. In emergency situations, I was expected to find coverage, and one time when I couldn’t, I turned in my two weeks because they weren’t budging.
