The other day at Two Dot we were talking about trade. This lead to a few questions. 

1.To my knowledge there are not metric parts in a sprint car?

2. How much of the finished metal is from overseas?

3. How much of the tires are imported.

4. Are all the components in the ignitions system make here.

Have a good one. 2d is possee.

Only the bead of the tire is imported. Once it arrives unicorn hair is used to thread it on for an absolute tight fit. 

From what I've heard all of the ignition components are made on the sun, so that they can handle high amounts of heat, by members of the Green Latern Core. 

Sprints cars only use metric equipment made in Texas.

I guess I am kind of surprised on how many people that are logged in to Dr. Smith on the old tv show.
