We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember (Steve Firth)
saying something like:

I've worked on my cars for years now, the problem with these bolts is
that the torque is high anyway and there's very little movement between
sufficient and broken.

Yep. It is much harder to tell when enough is enough.

Jerky is talking crap.

No surprise there, then.
