    Maybe I was in the heat too long at auction yesterday. And those two (2) tacos I had. Hmm

    The problem is you just had two tacos.

    Scheiße, both, and .25" off the head. If he would take a nickel a mile to let me drive it.....
    And 7 cents if I could use that trailer.

    No. One is excessive acceleration causing a loss of traction. The other is not selecting a gear at the proper rpm creating a grinding sound. Aka>missed the gear.
    Next we'll dicuss Jake shifting and when it should be properly applied.

    The unkindest cut, from a buddy who is just riding over to get his trailer. You scratch one while answering him...
    He comments: "Grind me a pound of that while you are at it..."
