Gas Prices
« on: February 23, 2011, 07:52:41 pm »
OK, the mid-east is on fire and as a result, crude oil supplies may be interupted. Our President has no known energy policy other than, "No, you can't drill here, there or anywhere". We are looking at potential gasoline shortages with prices of who knows how high this summer, and a resultant re-crash of our economy to boot.

Yup, it's a wonderful day.

well with some of use gas prices will affect how many races we can get to also. Or how many mowers to run..with prices like that I sure wouldnt drive more than 3 hrs to a race..so really not all political.
With gas prices that high how far would u travel to a race???

 I'll still go. My small 4-banger Tacoma gets close to 30MPG. I drive about 2 hours each way per race. I did it back when gas was close to $5 a gallon here a few years ago.  But yeah- it sucks paying more.

Want to worry about something?  Watch the grain market. It don't make single digit moves anymore.
It drives me crazy. I'm sitting on to much grain and the experts are saying hold on till summer. Going nuts!

My brother in law manages a HUGE gas station and does the gas pricing. He says we will see $5 gas this summer.
