    Does anyone have info on copyright law?

    It depends on if the copyright has expired or if the copyright owner cares enough to bother with you. Under the DMCA law the copyright owner must send you a cease and desist order as a first line of action before going to court. With material this old I'm betting no one cares and wouldn't give...

    Well, it finally gave up the fight

    I have a desktop computer back home that I built in 1998, it went through a couple of upgrades from my early adventures in overclocking (burned out a CPU and a video card) but it hasn't had any parts put into it in over a decade. Its still chugging a long fine and I still regularly used it...

    NFL 2013

    Hey Andy I moved to Middleburg last month which is just outside of Jacksonville. The locals down here are die hard fans...they're like the browns fans of the south. Anyway I love this team, they're so awful that ticket prices are dirt cheap. I might actually get to see the panthers or...

    They fill my car up with 76 and throw on a fresh set of hoosiers ;)

    Bristol Fall Pre race Cup Thread

    It is considered "retro" now. A lot of kids grew up with it like I grew up with the NES so they remember it as one of those things every kid had. I hate it because the idiots are driving up on the price on old consoles. Last time I went shopping for older games I saw N64s marked up to $70...

    North Wilkesboro today

    I really miss this track, I remember watching the last cup race held there on TV and seeing people sitting in the stands crying afterwards. Was watching Top Gear on netflix last week and they visited the track as part of an episode where they were driving the blueridge parkway. They ran super...

    NASCAR Fan Since..

    Since I could walk and talk, my Dad was a huge fan and I've been watching for as long as I can remember (born in '86). I followed it so closely as a kid that my Dad depended on me to keep up with all the car/driver changes at the start of the season from the time I was four years old on up to now.

    Random stuff

    Didn't want to make a new thread for this; In the last two months I've moved state and became employed, start work tomorrow for the first time in two years. Its a good day in sunny Florida.

    NFL 2013

    You're an evil person for reminding me about that game. :( I trace the yankee side of my roots back to Pittsburgh so we're Steelers fans on the AFC side and Panthers on the NFC side. I'm pinning my hopes on the Panthers to finally put something together and make a good play off run this...

    TV Coverage Complain Thread

    Not going to go back through the breakdowns but FOX was showing a lot of commercials during the races I watched this year. I think all of the networks broadcast about the same number of commercials per-race. It just feels like torture to me on Fox because they're constantly trying to make the...

    Sonoma Bonehead of the Race

    My vote goes to DW for hogging the mic during the announcement to start the engines.

    Anyone here go to/been to 311 Speedway?

    Well I went last Saturday to watch the local boys run and I probably won't be going back much. I plan on watching one of the bigger series when they come through but that'll be it for me and 311 I think. I got to the track just as practice was ending and found my old seats (5 rows up on the...

    TV Shows

    I find that holds true for a lot of good shows. They keep them going for too long...I didn't really think about it until I got into Japanese animation way back in my high school days. Basically most of the animation out of Japan will run for 24-26 episodes and maybe get a couple of hour long...

    Indy 500 Race Day Thread

    I think NASCAR kinda lends itself to the G/W/C rule with the ability to bump and run and all. GWC finishes are usually great at most of the tracks on the circuit too. I didn't feel like it took anything away from the race yesterday to see it finish under yellow. At least we got to see some...

    Broken Cable

    I wish I could, but I'm catching the tail end of the Bike Rally tonight and we're having a after party on the farm. I'll have to come up and watch a race there sometime though. Never been to that track (shame on me! :()

    Broken Cable

    That I can agree with but I kinda understand why they didn't too. You run into a case where you might have had a damaged car that wasn't anywhere near the cable and a team making repairs they couldn't otherwise do. I think we could go on all day like this (and will I'm sure! :)) but hopefully...

    Broken Cable

    I can understand why people might think that. A few cars ran over the cable as well so who knows what it might have been messed up on those.
