    They sent me home with the shit kit to do just that. Got to get clearance from oncologist, urologist, kidney doc, and endocrinologist before they can do a full on cave exploration. Looks like mid October before that happens.

    Was developed at Mayo Clinic and then Mayo Medical Ventures (for profit division of Mayo) partnered with Exact Sciences in Wi. to market it. Only has a 92% detection rate so if you are at high risk then it is not for you. It is not for me, or so I am told.

    Got a letter a few days ago that I am due for my next ride on the silver stallion. And getting an endoscopy on the 19th of next month. Sure hope they don't use the same silver stallion for the same procedures :rolleyes: OK so they don't but just saying...

    Being a cancer patient, I get every convcievable test. Endoscopy colonoscopy, 2 different MRIs, and a couple more tests haven't read up on yet.
    I was down to 5 doctors a month. We added 8 today that look to be regulars for a while

    Salt flat racers are usually geared so high for top speed, they struggle to get up to speed without a push.

    I was thinking something along those lines might be the reason.

    I like one of the comments:


    "My wife had a 90s Volvo and had taken it to multiple Volvo dealers and they all kept replacing an expensive module because that was what the scanner indicated. Finally, she took it to an old Polish guy who repaired European cars. He replaced a 3" rubber tube that was connected to the expensive module because it was collapsing closed when it got hot- problem solved. It's ironic because the dealers have all of those training certificates on the wall in the service department!"

    Yes the gears are tall enough that some cars need to be pushed to 60mph before the race car can move on its own . Did you also hear the engine rpm flare at ea gear shift ??. That's due to water seeping up thru the salt onto the surface causing loss of traction

    I've seen a few land speed cars that were built like sprint cars....direct drive..(no transmission) Sprinters have to be pushed off too.
