I make things of metal and code. I do road trips.

My main website is sensitive research (my queer scifi novel [The Delivery]is there), Rambler automobiles, Rambler Lore.

  • There is a WONDERFUL book, BATTLECRY OF FREEDOM, (McPherson) covers civil war era in detail, using contemporary accounts. One of a dozen world-changing books in my life.

    It’s also like scifi: the 1840s etc was the start of particular world changing science and tech: telegraph (instant electric communication), railroads, and germ theory. There was an angle where this was a technological war…












  • Sort of. You really need a team, 3 or 5 people. Takes a year to get a car and make it ready. Needs a roll cage. Someone needs to weld or be rich, lol. Tools, fuel. Lodging and transport. 5 grand last time we budgeted but we only raced once, so discount my advice that much.

    But go on their forum, lurk, and consider volunteering on a team! That would be the best way.

    Racing meaning the whole schtick, prep, build, transport, driving! pits, it’s unbelievable fun. Do it!
