Columbus Diesel also just opened a new location this year and from what I hear it's legit. But yes, if its an 07 its not a 7.3 unless it was dropped in. What does he have happening, no power, puking coolant, what was he doing when driving, towing, running it hard? Head gaskets, injectors, EGR, oil pump, all very common. If puking most likely head gaskets, if it runs but the power is all jacked up most likely oil pump or injectors.

So, they are good for when you come visit.

Walmart etc sells these things. Household goods or storage. I think even CVS etc.

Funny I got the green light with her last night.....

Thats what your wife said last night. Come and go as you please.

Actually, it works well on the man door on trailers too. Saw it at Jennings by a few people. same with camper bathroom doors etc.

Too bad you didnt pick up Isaacs trailer, sounds like it would have been perfect. MyKill should be picking it up shortly if he hasn't today. But from what it sounds like you want a cheaper, open, flat bed trailer. I agree the Aluminum ones are way over prices and honestly, you can make due with 1inch thick decking in most cases for what you are looking for, so it won't weigh much at all. Or get one with steel mesh, strong, has I beams, and weight savings. Again though, I would simply get something off Craigs, clean it up, and run with it. Upgrade the tires once they burn up, and possibly get new bearings or repack the current ones right away.

Yeah, what MyKill said, I talked to Dubguy, they sound real legit. Dub is doing race school and running 1-2 races and I think I might actually do one at the end of the day Saturday too at Putnam. They sound real solid and I just need to find out the $$ for transfering my race license from Motoseries. Shit I gotta order that too. MyKill, Dub CR's for Indy Ducati along with his Dad. I asked if you and I could get some VIP with his dad Saturady(At the track not in the bathrooms) and Dub said sure, so we can get some pointers on the track. -
As of right now if weather is good I hope to be going up, I have 0 idea as to when and what days because I have to look at funds first. Going to Putnam the weekend before and running both days, so $$ may be a little snug because I will also need new tires before Nelson. But I need to get to more tracks to get seat time before I start running the same tracks over and over and just become faster at those tracks than really learning things and trying to out ride the setup I have, etc. So I'd wait to add me to any list as of right now, but I do hope for Sat/Sun. Int. Sat, and mini 20 600 Sun.

Anyone ever rented out a track and had their own private trackday??

Actually, I think he thought the opposite. He said let's run balls to the wall and lap this SOB asap so I can get away again. -

At one point I was just as fast as Brian, we were gridding up and our bikes weren't moving, awaiting the green flag. Therefore, I was just as fast, once.... -
Yeah I talked to the Jennings people when I was there, they were 30 a set, and looked super legit. It seems as though any of the Klucky Pucks, the ones that Blue posted, and the Jennings ones, are made of similar material. Much harder than the cheap plastic that A-Star etc uses. Or just ride like Cox, fast and no need to drag knee. This isnt the case with me, I need a set too lol.

Will do, only one coat as that is all I normally do at a time. However, I am extremely anal about my cars and usually wax them 3-4 months apart with a single coat. Being that her car barely took any time at all, this will be the norm. My F250 I do twice a year and then I pay someone to do it one other time. The 250 is parked outside, I use EagleOne Full Syn, whatever it's called, and then wax as you dry and it still beads like the day it was waxed. As for what the people use when I have them wax it, I am sure it's a watered down Meguiars bulk shit. I will update this thread on the Ultimate, also I will be applying the ultimate to my F250 next month before race season starts with my orbital then removing with normal hand strokes(lol).
-
Since this just came to life again, I tried the Meguiars Ultimate last night on fiance's 2012 Escape since I wanted to wash it and see what it looked like with a hand wash and wax not just the dealer BS. Anyways, I did the whole care in under 1 hr waxing it by hand, even though I own an orbital. This stuff is amazing to remove, I only used 5 microfiber clothes on the whole car. It includes a huge microfiber that could probably do a car itself which is what they say is key. When it all comes down to it, wax all goes on the same, its the removing that's key. The car is Suede White/Pearl White, and I didn't notice any swirls or anything. Application:Normal, first wax so no cleaner or clay bar was needed Removal: Quickest ever, like I said, 5 towels was all I needed, 1 was about the size of 2 normal towels but anyways Shine: Up there, maybe not as good as my NXT or Eagle One Tech Wax, but definitely solid. I read NXT is best for removing swirls actually vs Ultimate, but being brand new I dont care. Durability; TBD Stuff is PRICEY though so it better last.

Yeah I saw those a while back on Wera. I'd say they are by far the gayest thing I've ever seen. Other than this one time at Nelson when everyone tried to cram into Craig's trailer with Jinu's dog. Wait, wait, that didn't happen, I made it up. But for real, garage door skins? Damn people have too much $$ and not enough brains.

Ah yes, after your and Mykill's both episodes, I don't think I'd want to run them in the rain though either way lol. Might have some new tires by then in the trailer, just gotta figure what I want to run next, or stay on the same. -

Saw Mykill last night at dinner, and we are both in for Putnam. He was able to get the days off, and I don't work weekends so we are good. Planning to head over and ride both days for sure. Just hoping the weather doesn't suck as we are both running Pures and after Nick's little/big off last year in the rain with them, I don't think I'd chance that. -
Wow, yeah, that dude is creepy. Like rape van driver creepy.

Congrats, Bachelor of ?

Not sure the quality but Harbor Frt has one and a recent coupon in my motorcycle mag was listed at like 7.99. No idea if it works etc, I did my chain at a friends on hte RC51 and my new bike came with new sprockets and chain.

You coming in to the Elevator? If so, I work from 6-11pm. Let me know early in the day if you make a reso, I'll buy you a beer and shot. Trust me, it's worth the $, best food in Cbus.

Cox, roger that, understandable when you are a bada$$ like you bro. Gotta bring the muscle for that kind of stuff. R1, 2 days. Most likely I will need tires the 2nd day too, hope to have some here shortly though, just waiting to mount them until the Pures are really done, done. -
Amen brother, left work at 7:30pm last night after getting here at 8:30am. Not to mention picked up a random bar shift Saturday night 6-11pm. I don't want to start a spreadsheet because it'd make me sick to my stomach. One other thing I did is my 401k and roth ira both come out automatically along with extra into savings, so I don't let myself touch the savings except for the wedding and honeymoon. But yeah, having those things already taken out help me know where I stand. Also having the fiance' splitting the mtg, and utilities helps lol. Actually that is my race/track budget I decided today after this thread.
