  1. Hello All, My name is Sean, I'm new to the Columbus area and met some of you guys at the Cars and Coffee meets and kept hearing about this forum so i decided to join. Ive always loved cars and hanging out with other car people. Currently i drive an 05 SRT-6 Crossfire. I used to have a 90 5.0 mustang before that. I look forward to all the upcoming cars and coffee meets and any other shows and events this season. Ill add some pics of the SRT. http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa136/sccobra87/car_2_zpsc196f438.png http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa136/sccobra87/lights_1_zpsdcbb4e25.png http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa136/sccobra87/engine_zps46db5922.png

  2. Good Afternoon I am looking to stay connected with more Ohio Racers and Enthusiasts. Most recently we ran a drag car at the Columbus IFO event. For now best time was a 10.0 @ 153mph ... Need to make some adjustments, probably a new set of tires, and see what happens. We also throw a few events around the Dayton area. - Friday Night Lightz - weekly drag racing event at Kilkare Raceway - Street Life Tour - Large Scale Drag Racing and Drift Competition Event Thank you

  6. Grape; I will make you 1 deal though, you get a bird, come over, we can drink beer and smoke it on my smoker some weekend. Be all manly, gay and shit; you know play with my trains and eat crab meat. wait, this isn't the trackday/race section is it? But we can smoke the bird, drink beer, and be men.

  19. I've always told my friends when it comes to girls life is like a batting cage, so swing at everything because you can't strike out but every now and then you can knock a homerun out. Hit on whom ever be respectful who gives a shit if she laughs at you. If she's rude about it just turn around and shout like your yelling to a friend in the distance, "yeah I told you she has herpes, can i call em or what".

  23. Sit with decoys full camo head to toe or in a blind. Turkeys are dumb animals but they have very very very good eye sight and they are stubborn they don't like to cross obstacles. Don't get discouraged if you go multiple times without getting to see a bird. I went two fall seasons and was on second spring season before I got a bird. The way I prefer is if you can get out the night before with an owl call and see where they are roosting then get out early well before sun up (I used to get out at least a hour before) and get close to the roosting area then right at sunrise hit em with a crow call and wake their asses up and hope they fly towards your area. Trying to get one on the way down or just as it hits the ground is a challenge. All though it would make a good video if you were to go out trying to run them down with guns a blazing.

  40. I see the thread on oil, and a while back I did research on oil for myself. I wrote it all down at the time, so I wouldn't forget it. It might not be perfect, but it's close enough for me. I thought I'd share it, but I really don't want to argue about it. I have one for filters too, but it needs a little work. Maybe later. DO NOT BUY: 1. Any oils with ratings higher than SG. (Basically don't use car oil, no SH, SJ, SL, SM) WHY: All oil with a rating higher than SG is considered low friction (friction modifiers). Manufacturers are not required to indicate what they have added to the oil. THEREFORE: It's impossible to tell if something the bike won't like has been added. 2. Oils that claim Teflon or PTFE, graphite, organic molybdenum compounds, or other special slippery stuff. i.e. Slick 50, WHY: The clutch will slip, the starter will not engage, etc. 3. Oils that claim friction modifiers, or "Energy Conserving" and/or "Energy Conserving II" (organic molybdenum compounds) WHY: The clutch will slip, the starter will not engage, etc. 4. Oils with the 15W-xx rating. i.e. 15W-40 WHY: It's diesel engine oil. It behaves completely different in the engine. BMW might be an exception, but be careful to get motorcycle oil not diesel oil. (BMW oil or Golden Spectro) 5. Racing oil if you are not racing. WHY: Street bikes stop a lot, racing bikes try hard not to. THEREFORE: Different type oil requirements. 6. Additives or cleaners for your oil. WHY: Unless it's sold by the vehicle manufacturer, it's BS. STP in your motorcycle engine will be one of the biggest mistakes you'll ever make. DO BUY: 1. Oils with the motorcycle JASO MA rating. 2. Oils with high viscosity ratings. See the short list below. 3. The correct wieght oil for your motorcycle. i.e. 10W-40 Why: This is the basic viscosity rating. 5W-xx oil will pit the gears. Bad. Correct wieght supports bearings, resists against consumption due to volatility. 4. Good quality/brand SG or JASO MA oil, can be mineral, semi-synthetic, or synthetic. WHY: Type I and V are the wrong types. (Type II, III, IV, but not type I or V) 5. Synthetic oil for use in cold weather. 6. Cheap oil for storing the bike in the Winter. (either Rotella, or basic cheap SG) 7. Better oil or different oil if your clutch slips or the gears are hard to shift. 8. Better oil if it looks beat up when you drain it. WHY: It should still have viscosity when you drain it. A good oil will will finish up by streaming out in a fine flow. A broken down oil will finish up with a drip drip drip. I.E. It should pour out like it poured in. 9. Oils with zinc (ZDDP; zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate) as an additive. WHY: good anti-wear additive for motorcycles. 10. Oils with Phosphorus from ZDDP as an additive. WHY: Prevents gear wear, protects transmission. (Bad for catalytic converters, but I don't have one in Ohio.) NOTES: 1. SE SF SG SJ SH SJ SM SL oil ratings on the container, will not always have the official circle emblem. The official certification requires that an oil meets current ratings. (SL) Thus a new oil meeting older motorcycle ratings of SG, will not receive any official rating at all. It will simply say somewhere that it meets or exceeds SG. Another reason is that the certification is very expensive, and some oil companies won't do it. 2. The lack of ratings for motorcycle oils, is now covered by the Japanese JASO MA and MB ratings. MA is heavy duty, MB is light duty. 3. If the viscosity of the oil is broken down when it's drained, change it more often, or use a better oil. The oil should stream out when it's done draining, instead of dripping. (if it's reasonably hot oil) i.e. it should pour out like it poured in where possible. 4. Some engines, for example the early Honda V4s, and any turbo, needed better-than-average oil such as semi- or full-synthetics. (note: modified engines with extremely high compression ratios can destroy oil in just days or weeks.) 5. Mineral oils generally have a higher viscosity than synthetics, but they can't keep it that way. 6. There is no such thing as a pure 100% synthetic. Synthetics are made from mineral oil or ethanol, etc. Synthetics are generally a mix of both mineral, and mineral enhanced to be considered synthetic. (Type IV oils, PAOs, are the closest to a true synthetic. Mobil One, (use motorcycle type only), is the only one I can think of.) 7. It's ok to add a mineral to a synthetic, or a synthetic to a mineral. Not a problem. 6. Don't get obsessed with oil: the best advice you can find is in the owner's manual 7. Special application oils are for special application motorcycles, you don’t have one, forget it. 8. Honda HP4 oil, which is a mineral/synthetic blend, appears to have molybdenum additives. Opinions differ as to whether molybdenum is bad for the clutch plates. If it's not so bad, why did Honda take it out of their HP4, and have two types, one with and one without? Also, SportRider tested the HP4 without molybdenum and found it had significant amounts in it. 9. Some bikes have no problems with the molybdenum additives. Likewise, some bikes have no problem with car oil. Even the ones with the slippery energy conserving additives. ----------------- Viscosity ratings from independant testing: Notable here, is that a petroleum based oil can out-perform a synthetic. Also notable, is that the oil breaks down the viscosity very fast in a motorcycle. Relative Viscosity Retention (as a percentage of initial viscosity retained after normal use in the same motorcycle) 0 mi 800 mi 1500 mi 2500 mi type ---- ------ ------- ------- ---- Mobil1 100% 86.6% 83.0% 79.1% synthetic/automotive oil Castrol Syntec 100% 78.1% 74.5% Not tested synthetic/automotive oil Castrol GTX 100% 72.2% 68.0% " " petroleum/automotive oil Honda HP4 100% 69.2% 65.6% " " synthetic/Motorcycle oil Spectro 4 100% 68.0% 63.9% " " petroleum/Motorcycle oil Most of these are automotive oils, this list is just to show how some petroleum oils outperform synthetics, when you wouldn't expect it. --------------------- continued in part 2
