Car racing

I had to look up the layers of the atmosphere, but not because stoned (not), and not because drinking (am). I don't know those things of the top of my head, but I assume millerflip is somewhere inside the earth's mantle keeping it all together.

I just watched a David Attenborough hosted show on Netflix.
@millerflip may be our last hope.

And this thread is about car racing. @HuskerGarrett, good luck at your first track event.

@millerflip, please grace us with your wisdom.

I have a classic Land Rover but I doubt it'd make it around the track once without breaking down. Seriously.

Fastest I got on the straight away was probably 150ish

Thank you @hothouse_corn I appreciate your invite into this thread. @HuskerGarrett If you send me the coordinates to the race track event site I will do my best to get to that exact location, however, realistically I've adapted the 500 mile radius as a buffer zone for which I then call the trip an overwhelming success. The men's varsity football team at the University of Nebraska is the best at getting all of the best players, at every position that reside inside the 500 miles radius of Nebraska to ultimately join the squad. My approach is just getting inside that radius.

Thanks for chiming in, and for offering to help with the car racing. I assume you've been mainly reading posts on the "hyvee parking lot" board for the the past few weeks while looking for your actual car in a grocery store parking lot. Based on the picture, I'm glad you found it.

The good news is that all the way out to beyond the exosphere is in the 500 mile radius, and a lot of the mantle is, too. We're still in the same ballpark.

In other news, apparently @themillerflip from Inside Nebraska passed away. SIAP, but if you spent any time on IN, you'd remember him.

RIP Husker brother and skater.

RIP IN PEACE: Bill Miller

Midwest skateboarding lost a force of nature recently. Kevin Wilkins remembers the great Bill Miller.

The below info/post was from @Sidney Husker on Inside Nebraska...think I hijacked the car thread, but hopefully worth it. 😎

Just like 'BOMBER', The Miller Flip was a LEGEND here on the board. I posted the following on my Facebook page, in honor of the honorable Miller Flip.

A man by the name of BILL MILLER passed away. Apparently, he was an early skateboarding multi-state organizer and skateboarding DEMON, himself!

But, he was known to all of us on the premium Nebraska Cornhusker's football recruiting 'Insider' site, "https://nebraska.rivals.com/" -- as, "The Miller Flip".

Until I read the attached article, the only thing I knew about the man was his trademark, deadpan Husker fan Posts, which were quite distinct. He would jump into any 'thread' topic. Talking about recruiting in general, he'd pipe up with his TYPICALLY over-simplified statements, such as: "If I was the head coach at the University of Nebraska, I'd recruit the best athletes at every position." -- Then, he'd leave it out there to simmer as other Husker fans would add their thoughts to the thread.

I wish I had a few of his 'typical' posts to share, as my description above lacks the repetitive, simplistic 'vibe' of total assuredness in his 'position' or 'thought'. Never particularly thought-provoking, his Posts never failed to leave a smile on the reader's face. (Speaking for myself, my 'handle' is Sidney Husker. I've been a member of this premium site for over twenty (20) years.

SOME COMMENTS FROM FELLOW HUSKER MEMBERS OF THE SITE:
--> Wow. Not even that old. So sad to see. RIP MillerFlip.
--> This sucks. He was one of a kind. Just an awesome poster.
--> I am going to miss him. Way too young.
--> Thanks for posting OP...damn this sucks, funny dude and a good guy as well who was (unbeknownst to me) a legend in the world/sport. RIP man.
--> Damn. Is this actually the same guy who posted here? Loved that dude. RIP.
--> Very sad. His sarcastic optimism will be missed
--> Dang that's sad. His schtick always cracked me up and was never at the expense of others. RIP.
--> Way too young. Rest in Peace - you will be missed MillerFlip.
--> Does anyone know where in Nebraska he was from? Very Sad, RIP @themillerflip
--> He was from Lincoln, and graduated from Pius X in 1985. I believe he was last living in the Milwaukee area.
--> Dang! That is so sad. RIP brother
--> Do freight trains travel to heaven? I'd like to think so.
RIP Millierflip.

SALUTE, to the Miller-Flip! May God bless you and keep you in His grace and love.

Required, is this guy a lurker from TnD? Maybe Brady?

 

[Tell_Sackett]

At his funeral, everybody should be directed to the wrong cemetery..... that would be the most appropriate tribute to theMillerflip. RIP
