NASCARS VERY OWN

Image
Unlike Formular One (F1), NASCAR has had quite a few black racers in the past but just like F1, there is currently only one black racer in the entire line-up as of today and this racer goes by the name Bubba Wallace. Before we dive into Wallace's racing history, it would not be out of place to briefly talk about NASCAR. The National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing (NASCAR) is an American auto racing sanctioning and operating company that is best known for stock car racing. NASCAR NASCAR and stock car racing as a whole, traces it's roots back to moonshine runners during prohibition. The last sentence might seem like gibberish but chill, let me explain. Moonshine is a high-proof liquor (generally whiskey), produced illegally without government authorization. Due to the fact that the liquor was illegal, moonshine runners would smuggle them about the US and they usually got chased down by the police.  NASCAR humble beginnings In hopes of improving their chances of outrunning

The Outcast of the Fast and Furious Franchise is Actually the Best One

Fast and Furious 10 a.k.a Fast X has been available in Cinema's for about a week and I have heard mixed reviews but I no too send them because I am a big sucker for the fast and furious franchise and I can't wait to watch it for myself. I usually have a ritual of re-watching all the Fast and Furious movies just before a new one comes out, so it flows well in my head and also because I just love the movies so damn much. I can say I am an expert on the topic of the Fast and Furious franchise and I have come today with an unpopular opinion that the best fast and furious movie is actually the one people consider to be the black sheep of the family. The Goat of FF Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift premiered on June 4, 2006 and it came as a shock to everyone because the whole cast was missing. Prior to the Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift, there was The Fast and the Furious followed by 2 Fast 2 Furious and these were hits. So, the World was expecting something like 3 Fast 3 Furious but instea

What Happened to all the Shocks in Ogbomosho???

This episode is going to serve as a mini rant because the amount of abuse my gluteus maximus has received since getting to Ogbomosho is outrageous. From the motorcycles to the keke napeps and worst of all,  the ''Korope'' in the city of Ogbomosho all seem to have their shocks kidnapped from underneath them. I understand that quite a lot of my readers are my fellow medical students and I am very sure you all are trying to understand the relationship between a vehicle and the so called medical state called ''shock''? lol Vehicle Shock Absorber In medical terms, shock is defined as a state of cellular and tissue hypoxia due to either reduced oxygen delivery, increased oxygen consumption, inadequate oxygen utilization, or a combination of these processes. Wow, quite a lot words even for me, but Dr. Edwards, my anatomic pathology teacher would be very proud if I could say this in his class.  On the other hand, ''shocks'' mean a whole different

Tuners That Build Different

I know that we are supposed to be discussing Formula One (F1) for the coming weeks, but I felt it was becoming boring and quite repetitive. We will definitely return to F1 but I believe we should switch things up for the new month. So, how are my Turbonerdz' doing? I hope y'all are doing great and if you aren't, I want you to know that things will eventually get better. From the topic of discussion, we already know where this weeks episode is headed. This is not the first time we are talking about auto tuners, as we have covered Mercedes Benz tuners in a previous episode and if you missed it, I would recommend you read that before diving into this weeks episode. Fun Fact: Once a car is tuned, it is no longer considered stock The word "tune" means "to adjust" or "to change". In this context, auto tuning involves taking out stock parts of a car and replacing them with after market parts. Tuning could be for power, to make a car go faster or just
