I always thought it would take just one Forum member; he would hold the lightbulb and the world would revolve around him.

Good to see someone finally saw the light

You could have just said 169 and saved us all a lot of time and effort reading that

(or maybe it was just a little too accurate for this forum)

Technically, go back to line one, it only took one to change the bulb. The rest is just us with too much time on our hands.

He's right, it's a trick question..but funny anyway.

I think the BS-ing is an integral part of most of the stuff we do with the club. Would it really be the same to race around the Q all by yourself for 12 laps in 8 hours on a Saturday The other 168 are all part of the process

I agree, but it is still fun to make fun of (Especially when people get too serious about things)

I agree or disagree with all or part of the above statement. Please see previous postings from 2, 4 or 9 months ago. Tire size and compound may affect light brightness and/or heat cycles.

Are we suppose to heatcycle lightbulbs? Who around town does this? Do you shave them as well?

[richard]

Is it against club rules to have a beer, or two, while changing a light bulb?

I'm not sure Mark knows about shaved light bulbs. He appears to be the expert in "Shaved Monkeys" ... as per his racing team name.
(Betcha I get in trouble for that one!)

[RETII]

Does the number of lumens or wattage change the suffix one ones bulb class to production or whatever?

Just to make this thread is as random as possible. Here is a new signature for you Mark

I just noticed that this actually adds up to 179. We should debate that for a while.

You should always heat cycle light bulbs. SDG&E will be happy to do this for you for a nominal fee. Shaving light bulbs can yield better times, but may decrease the life of the bulb. Shaved Monkeys are much faster due to decreased wind resistance and they also run much cooler on hot days.

As long as all of the cones are in the trailer, you can have a beer.
