ETERNAL ENEMIES "HOSTES SEMPITERNOS: THE WIFE VS THE OLD CAR DYNAMIC

There's an old National Geographic TV special called 'Eternal Enemies' that chronicled the relationship between a pride of lions and a pack of hyenas.

This show documented the tumultuous and often fatal struggle for survival between these two natural enemies and it didn't have a Walt Disney ending.

The hyena was taken out in less than 30 seconds in the final showdown between a giant lion and the leader of the hyenas.

Clearly the "wife versus old car" dynamic is less violent.

BORN TO RUN: KEN SCHRADER TALKS ABOUT HIS LONG CAREER ON THE RACE TRACK

It is no secret that a father plays a huge role in his son's world and veteran driver Ken Schrader is a great example of this basic rule of life.

His father Bill was a racer, so Ken was introduced to a steering wheel and a gas pedal at the tender age of three when he drove a go kart tethered to a pole in the Schrader family back yard.

THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS: WHY THESE NEW CAR CHASE MOVIES SUCK

I took the time to watch the first 'Fast and Furious' movie and that experience cured me forever on these nouveau car chase flicks. There is no way around the stone cold truth that these new CGI car movies are just a two hour video game where the audience doesn't have a control stick.

Otherwise they would steer the cars right into the nearest lane of traffic and go out in a fiery fake cartoon crash and look for a game over sign.

What is even more galling is that these cartoon car chases have replaced the old school car chase movies in the Top Ten car movie list.

MSCC QUESTION OF THE DAY: DO YOU MESS WITH FACTORY EQUIPMENT?

Just to be clear, this is not a question about human anatomy and various ways to enhance that kind of factory equipment.

This question is about the factory equipment in older cars and whether we would change anything to make them better than before in a Six Million Dollar Man kind of way-only for a lot less coin than that guy's mods.
