Reheat burgers under the hood? Other trail food included

I had a 12v oven at one time, I’m on the road all day and it was great to have hot leftovers to eat, I’m about to order another one.
Now my dad paved driveways for a living and he used to get ears of sweet corn when in season, wrap it real good In foil, and bury in the load of asphalt, when he got to the job site the boys had roasted sweet corn.
If you ever try to heat up canned anything on you engine, open it before heating so it doesn’t explode.

Back in high school a bunch of us regularly camped at Mosport (car races). Several of us still do. One year a future Engineer threw a quart can of beans on the fire. We'd all taken cover by the time it got to be the shape of a football. When it finally blew it sounded like a giant wet fart, which seemed appropriate, and the beans shot out of one end. It still comes up at our camp fires but we're much more mature now … and I'm not sure if they still sell beans in quart cans.

Camped there myself a couple times for vintage motorcycle races!

I live about 45 minutes away and have been going since the mid '60s seeing all of the F1 & CanAm races. I don't think I'll make it this year though due to the virus. I've seen a lot of changes over the years as the track and facilities have improved.
 
My only question is how you all are keeping a burrito from falling off the engine while wheeling? I’d love to do this lol...
 
I enjoyed that class, great professor

I actually hated it, because I had an awful professor. But then for heat transfer, fluid mechanics, and thermal-fluid system design I had a prof so good that for an elective I took his grad level advanced engineering thermo class just because, and ended up in a career centered around thermo. If someone had told me my future career path while I was in that first thermo class I don't know if I would have laughed or cried.

My class was the only time I recommend taking a class from the guy who wrote the book. Professor Munson was a great teacher.

Now my physics prof who also wrote the book was an idiot.

Not that that "experiment" helped him but he became a Civil Engineer specializing in sewage treatment plants. I became a Town Planner and we ended up working together 10 years later. We're both retired now.

now THAT's something you REALLY don't want exploding.

This joke may have been around for awhile, but my school was near a major air force base with several aerospace companies nearby that recruited all of the aerospace engineers and many of the mechanical. We used to say "aerospace engineers build weapons. Civil engineers build targets". At the time I thought it was hilarious but it seems kinda dumb now that I've been doing refrigerant-side HVAC system design for almost 15 years.
