  2. this is a good oldie. Gotta love how the dude just keeps going with a straight face like what he's saying is a matter of fact
  3. i just got here to post this thread, had it typed up, refreshed and saw you posted LOL local APR dealer is TC Kline Racing in Hilliard . Just figured I'd let that be known since i know them well
  4. a massive feat of engineering. Horatio is a wild man and one we should all be thankful is still making cars
  5. i'm down...see u there
  6. she actually got run over by a car.....which sucked a lot
  7. Fancy our yard was pretty big back in Haiti so she had free range and never really was overly anxious.....these dogs don't run, they gallop
  8. fun facts highlighted most relevant bit
  9. awww puppy I had a weim, growing up...Her name was Fancy. She was quite the dog with a ton of energy and she could jump so high, clearing gates and stuff no problem. I miss Fancy
  10. It's not mentioned in that video...but the craziest fact I have ever heard about a TF car is that the crankshaft is under such torsional load on the "big end" of the track, after the clutch has gone 1:1 that it will "twist" several degrees. The engine builders know this and grind the camshaft lobes with this in mind so the cam timing is "right" when the car is on the big end and can use the extra power.
  11. Keep in mind nitro runs at about 4:1 air fuel, where gasoline is more like 12.5:1 or so. That's partly why there is so much fuel in this video. the engine is at the border of hydraulic lock AKA a ticking timebomb at full throttle with that much liquid being pumped in. It's an awesome but extremely scary thought "The spark plugs hav disintegrated and the engine is now dieseling" DAMN
  12. signed up for dyno oddly enough, I heard the same thing Saturday from somebody...I had never heard of it before what did you get to eat because i am hearing the food is also glorious
  13. I've been to see funny cars back when a close friend worked for John Holt...the smell of Nitrometh is so awesome:megusta::megusta::megusta:
  14. the Venom is nothing impressive for the money really......it's just another pocket-pinching attempt by the crooks at Hennessey. I somehow doubt that aside from engine and body, the suspension and other stuff is nowhere near as sorted...which for a Lotus, is a crying shame
  15. wow that was wild...the sideways jump was just plain wild I loved it couple of observations: 3:35 --->LOL fallen go-pro 9:23---> E36 on the bridge :fuckyeah: he's done that already when he visited the south of FRA... Gymkhana 3, part 2
  16. his name is Nino http://www.blogcdn.com/www.autoblog.com/media/2012/07/toyota-gt86-628.jpg She's Long Gone - Black Keys at the start automatically won me over if you have time, watch also his review of the original NSX. It's a good piece and he's actually a pretty good and engaging reviewer even though he speaks Hungarian in the video enjoy!:megusta:
  17. it was primarily Afrikaans before that point....native of South Africa, derived from Dutch
  18. she really seemed to dig him...good to see she wasn't being fake about it, I guess fanny pack --->:masturboy:
  19. hmmmm...Yolandi Visser http://cityrag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/yo-landi-visser-photos-8.jpg http://cityrag.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/yo-landi-visser-photos-26.jpg
