I get asked tech questions in Home Depot all the time. My response is I

I'm curious. What kind of questions and why YOU? I've asked guys who
looked like they knew what they were doing (tool belt, butt crack, etc.)
questions and it's never seemed to bother them.

But often I do shows and events and will happily answer any formula car
question, it done to promote the sport. But unless there is a purpose I
will avoid answering.

Example I will answer a guy in a Porsche about driving stuff places to
race and who to see for help. If a guy in a Nissan with a giant wing and
drifting sticker on the car I start singing about drifting the figure
skating edition of Motorsports.


Ha. My Corolla has a spoiler. As soon as I hit 140 I'll see if it
works or not.
