Keystone State Thread

Hockey is the only sport that takes skill.

 

Me either. It was just something to do and I look foolish if I am unable to speak intelligently about it with customers at work.
Working with contractors in Philly EVERYONE talks sports. -_-

I used to really like NASCAR but then they started changing the rules so frequently I lost all interest. Also helped when HD used to sponsor it & I got free trips.

 

What is that?

 

Lots of skill

 

I still like it but I don't follow it actively like I used to. Once upon a time I went to 5-6 races a year and watched all of them on TV...

 

If we are talking sports I'm a big fan of motogp. I'll watch that over anything. I also record the isle of mann tt every year so there's that.

 

OK, so you're saying the holes that Toyota designed into the frame are not enough and you like extra holes? Wouldn't I rather patch up and cover/seal over all holes in the paint coat with bedliner so that the only entry/exit of water is just what Toyota designed? I'm somewhat confused. How is the bedliner different than paint? If water enters a scratch/ding in the paint somewhere, it will seep as far as it can and rust forms underneath paint. Are you implying that you'd rather have rust hiding under normal paint than the bedliner paint? I'd make the assumption that if you put on a harder more durable coat like a bedliner then you'll have less chips where water can enter. Now I'm not talking about willy nilly slapping bedliner over everything at this moment. It would be a matter of grinding down to bare metal on the existing spots of corrosion, rust inhibitor, primer, then bedliner.

Is that wrong? Everyone chime in who has ever put on bedliner and regretted it. Ultimately I'll go with what y'all say. So far it looks like 3 votes against bedliner, none for it.

 

Several things. You can't coat the inside of the frame with bedliner, which is where most frame rot starts. You'll never get the pockets of moisture out from between the layers of the frame without hooking it up to a welder and heating the entire frame up for a good duration.

The problem with bedliner is it's a solid plastic that is not self-healing. Anywhere moisture already exists, or anywhere that in the future you get a ding will retain the moisture against the metal for much longer than, yes, paint. If you want to coat your frame it should be with a rust inhibitor, a-la fluid film, or amsoil's heavy duty rust preventative. Something that is self healing and water displacing.

 

MotoGP is awesome, those guys are insane. Also love watching IOM TT.

I prefer motorsports and action sports - anything X-Games, racing, etc. I do find Nascar a bit boring though, prefer circuit style races.

 

I like weird sports where you know no one is being paid a fortune just for showing up.

 

What is being said in different ways !1

Any coating but paint allows moisture to be held between the coating and the frame !!

Moisture also including all or lovely mix of winter chemicals!!

 

I have dealt with corporate plenty, plenty of times. Message me.

 

I am not spectator I get bored to easy!

Then not having TV since 1999 I am sure helps The world slowest internet helps as well

I can watch a Rodeo but only from the chutes

 

Baseball=throw,catch , hit the ball
Easy you learned that in diapers
Soccer= kick the ball, learned after you learned how to walk.
Football = throw,catch, run the ball, try to tackle the other guy with the ball.learned that if you had a sibling.
Basketball = throw ball through hole, learned that throwing trash away.
All the above done while running on your feet, learned that after you master walking.
Hockey= here is a stick,hit this little black disk made of solid rubber and frozen,put it into the goal that is 4ft by 6ft. While on ice.

 

That's a cool explanation

 

I do plan on going to isle of mann to watch one of these races. Now that's a dream vacation for me.

 

I got into watching F1 racing and GT racing but stopped a year or so ago

 

Thanks for the tips guys. You've convinced me.

 

(though I still don't see the difference with that mentality for the frame in contrast to why we all think bedliner on the bed or the rocker panels is somehow better in those circumstances)
