Hey everyone. Figured I'd join the site to get to know some more people "around" the area. My names Corey and I have an 04 Mustang GT. I'm on Cleveland Racing as well under the name of OneSlow98GEETEE. I'm currently in a rebuilding process with my car. Long story short, it was a Vortech V1 S-trim boosted and FMIC'd stock engine, with TB, plenum, exhaust, etc. Made 13lbs at redline, 411rwhp and 396rwtq with no cool down time on Big 3 Racing's Mustang dyno...and lasted 1 day LOL. I have pictures of the carnage upon request. Here's what will be going on the car in the next few weeks, and hopefully running by the beginning of April: MMR900 Shortblock with ARP mainstuds, ARP 2000 rodbolts, ARP headstuds, and MMR sideblock bolts. Spec 8 bolt billet flywheel with ARP bolts Spec Stage 2+ clutch kit Twin 03-04 Cobra fuel pumps with 40A BAP FRPP HV Oil pump MAC LT Headers with matching shorty O/R X pipe connecting to my Magnaflow Magnapack Catback Stock heads for now with Comp beehive valvesprings and retainers for future cams of CMS Stage 2.5 blower cams and then the V1 blower will be going back on with it all with the same pulley setup. Going for 450-500rwhp ish before cams, and 520-540rwhp with cams. http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/shortblock2.jpg http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/shortblockside.jpg http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/shortblockunder.jpg http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/clutchflywheel.jpg ^ sock not included in rebuild http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/fuelpumps.jpg http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/headers.jpg http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/progress2.jpg http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/progress3.jpg http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/done.jpg http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/mustangciv2.jpg http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/mustangciv1.jpg http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/mustangfmic.jpg http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/eastonhockeyplayer08/04tint.jpg

Shamelessly copied from a good friend of mine. May Proclaimed Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month. One out of every nine U.S. road fatalities accounted for last year involved motorcycle riders. This steady increase in fatalities over the past decade represents one of our Nation’s greatest highway safety challenges. Motorcycle fatalities now account for 11 percent of total road fatalities and have increased each year from a low of 2,116 in 1997 to 4,810 in 2006. So while there has been success in reducing automobile deaths in recent years, this progress is being negated by the rise in motorcycle fatalities, which has more than doubled. All motorists are reminded to safely “Share the Road” with motorcycles and to be extra alert when driving to help keep motorcyclists safe. “With warmer weather here, more motorcycles are back on the roads. Drivers of all vehicles need to be extra alert". “Motorcycles are some of the smallest vehicles on the road so folks in other vehicles need to really look out for them—and to take extra care to safely ‘Share the Road’.” Because of their smaller size, motorcyclists are often hidden in a vehicle’s blind spot. “It’s crucial that motorists always make a visual check for motorcycles by checking mirrors and blind spots before entering or leaving a lane of traffic and at intersections.” Motorcyclists are much more vulnerable than passenger vehicle drivers in the event of a crash. Research shows that approximately 80 percent of motorcycle crashes injure or kill a motorcycle rider, while only 20 percent of passenger car crashes injure or kill a driver or passenger in their vehicle. Several tips for drivers to help keep motorcyclists safe on our roadways:  Remember the motorcycle is a vehicle with all of the rights and privileges of any other motor vehicle on the roadway. Always allow a motorcyclist the full lane width—never try to share a lane;  Always make a visual check for motorcycles by checking mirrors and blind spots before entering or leaving a lane of traffic and at intersections;  Always signal your intentions before changing lanes or merging with traffic;  Don’t be fooled by a flashing turn signal on a motorcycle – motorcycle signals are often not self-canceling and riders sometimes forget to turn them off. Wait to be sure the motorcycle is going to turn before you proceed;  Remember that road conditions which are minor annoyances to other vehicles pose major hazards to motorcyclists;  Allow more following distance, three or four seconds, when following a motorcycle, so the motorcyclist has enough time to maneuver or stop in an emergency. And don’t tailgate. In dry conditions, motorcycles can stop more quickly than cars. Motorcyclists have responsibilities, too, by following the rules of the road, being alert to other drivers, and always wearing DOT-compliant helmets and protective gear. Our message to all drivers is: make this the first year in recent years when motorcycle fatalities do not increase. Help to share in the responsibility and do your part by safely ‘Sharing the Road’ with motorcycles.” His patrol bike

I became a dad yesterday. 9lbs 3oz Woo hoo

The end comes when an animal can no longer control urination and defecation. Making messes all over the place. By that time appetite and activity is nearly non-existent. Some will do things like walk into a room or corner and get stuck, not able to figure out how to back up and turn around. The animal will signal it's desire to end it, by basically lying down and refusing to move. There is a dullness to the spirit, and an unwillingness to respond to the owner or other animals. Then it's time, beyond a doubt. And yes, even before that time, a healthy animal will often have become blind from cataracts, and deaf and unable to hear. The pain of old age is something all animals put up with. There is a desire to live. But at some point, we all lie down and refuse to get up. It's part of life. Celebrate the life, and not the death.

Tyler, there are a lot of people on here that have been through this before. We know what your dealing with and no one is saying it's easy by any means. But we would rather us suffer a little bit so our beloved friends don't have to anymore. When we found Dusty at the pound, she didn't bark or jump once. Instead she sat at the gate and just shook uncontrollably with excitement. I knew at that second she was the dog for me. Well I always think that my grandfather is watching her for me now. And my wife tells me she has no doubt that Dusty will be sitting at the gates of heaven, shaking uncontrollably to greet me. That's what keeps me strong as helps me remember the good times. It's not "goodbye" it's "see you later"

You got a new bike, the feeling is mutual so STFU

Sorry about your friend. I would not do your job, or that of a teacher.

I think it's awesome... the sooner we get rid of that nonsense the sooner we can evolve as a scioety.

A mechanic was removing a cylinder-head from the motor of a Harley motorcycle when he spotted a well-known cardiologist in his shop. The cardiologist was there waiting for the service manager to come take a look at his bike when the mechanic shouted across the garage "Hey Doc, want to take a look at this?" The cardiologist, a bit surprised, walked over to where the mechanic was working on the motorcycle. The mechanic straightened up, wiped his ha nds on a rag and said, "So Doc, look at this engine. I open its heart, take the valves out, repair any damage, and then put them back in, and when I finish, it works just like new. So how come I make $39,675 a year, a pretty small salary and you get the really big bucks ($1,695,759) when you and I are doing basically the same work?" The cardiologist paused, smiled and leaned over, then whispered to the mechanic... "Try doing it with the engine running."
