Black Pepper
Back in the late 60's, early 70's I worked with a great group of guys. We built and raced oval track modifeds. The cars weighed about 2000lbs with big block chevys. Anyway, one year on the last race of the season, we were in the hunt for the point championship, during warmups we discovered water in the oil. We were ready to pack it in when ole Franky (About 80 yo) says hold on a second. He went to the refreshment stand an came back with two pepper shakers. He proceededd to pour the pepper into the radiator. We changed the oil, ran the engine, changed the oil again and off we went to race. Finished 3rd in the main and won the point championship.
