Is that a Concord back there?

Yep. It flew in to be retired there. (Seattle Museum of Flight) It sits back there near an early "Air force 1" 707.

Because when you only drive 1/4 mile you don't need a cooling fan, and you don't need an air filter, but it's nice to have an oil filter.

I get the "no fan, no air filter for a 1/4 mile" part. ... it's just that why then have the added drag of pumping oil thru a filter? (a cheap POS at that) Certainly the oil will stay clean enough for quite a few runs. VW's have a screen around the oil pick-up - that should suffice. :)
