  1. This car is one naughty little monkey http://www.dragzine.com/features/car-features/7-second-rocket-carey-bales-132-cubic-inch-turboed-honda-s2000/

    I put a lot of thought into it and plan on starting very small to get a feel for it to make sure the final product is what I want. My pod cast will go well beyond drag racing since I love all forms of car related insanity. Drag racing is just where I make the most money currently.

    I have been kicking around starting a car/racing pod cast for a while now. With my contacts I figured I could get people to interview no problem, the technical end has kept me away from doing it since it will take a lot to do right.
  7. I cannot stress enough how important the rules required safety gear is at the track. After witnessing a friend have one of the most horrific wrecks I've ever seen at the track, have to be cut out of a car, and might have his racing career ended it really hit home. I was guilty of running slightly quicker than the 11.49 ET and did not have a roll bar or belts, but I won't ever do that again. If your car can't pass tech, don't run it at the track because the risk is not worth it. If Mike had skimped on gear or a correct build he would have been hurt worse, or killed. The noise that car made hitting the wall made my stomach hurt it was that bad
  8. Thanks for the kind words, just finished off the gallery, I'm going to try and sleep now.
  9. I will look into this It depends on the opportunity and distance.
  10. Some of my stuff http://www.dragzine.com/photos/event-coverage/drag-racing-event-coverage/memphis-outlaw-street-car-reunion-ii-photo-extra/ Jason's same day coverage http://www.dragzine.com/race-coverage/drag-radial-events/outlaw-street-car-reunion-same-day-coverage-from-memphis/
  11. Pretty much the best post in here 11/10 There is no "right or wrong" its what you want to do. You ask 8 different people here you will get 14 different answers on what to do and how everybody else is wrong, your wrong, or god knows what else. Do what fits the situation best without melting the family down. If your daughter can't follow your rules, good chance she won't be able to follow life's rules and will come crawling back after the big bad world breaks a boot off in her ass twice.
  12. So am I going to have to lock this, or can people act like adults? I really don't care who thinks what about a thing, this is really not the place to shit everywhere. Go start a kitchen thread to hate on each other
  13. Still looking. No bites yet on anything. If you have a good head hunter or resume service to use let me know. I need to get out of where I'm at before 2015 is up, before the summer would be best. The corporate changes that are coming will not end well for everybody around here and I want the hell off this ship before it hits the chunk of ice...
  14. Yet there are people on CR who supple up to this guys nuts. Bottom line, within the performance industry this guy is viewed as a cunt.
  15. The ignorance that leaks from that shop is amazing. Next time you see a MoTec rep ask them about CTD, the reaction is amazing The only thing "their" cars and coffee does is serve as a pay to play marketing ploy.
  16. Reservation made for 7:30
  17. Why is the EPA having the study done if it does not have something to do with an environmental issue? I thought their job was to protect the environment and force regulations on things that concern that? One would think the EPA could spend tax money on things within their area and not grease fires on consumer goods. Its just your tax dollhairs at work
  18. This is the first non-fox news article I found on this, anybody else have info on it? Seems like a pretty big waste of tax payer money to study something like this, considering how small a percentage barbecue adds to environmental issues. But, when the .gov wants to tell you what, when, and where you can do with your body anything is possible... http://www.wsiltv.com/news/local/Research-Could-Change-the-Way-We-Barbecue-296944351.html
  19. Funny, I have not seen a single CTD car at TX2k15. One would think when such a large group of your target market is in one place you would want to be front and center showing how well your product performs against the other companies you live to slam..... ..... or the fact is CTD is a bigger bust than johnny manziel and has been exposed. Nothing more than a social media wannabe shop that has not and will not ever live up to their own hype. I still want to see Jamie's GTR donkey stomp "the stig", I'll even do the video for that and I usually stay away from the whole street racing thing.
  20. That guy also does stuff for pretty much every major sporting organization from the NFL to the NCAA. To see pictures commercially at an NHRA event you have to pay $6,000 a year in fees to have the "right" to sell your own pictures. Mark is smart on how he keeps the rights to everything he shoots so he will make money for years to come.
  21. You suck, that is all.
  22. Bingo... that and I have done stories on this car, at this track so I kind of know its already running out the back door. You can also look at the timing blocks and see by the amount they are going full quarter mile.
  23. I've always been a fan of well built imports and that car is just amazing. I thought Zohan was going to do it up at MIR but after the 6.0 pass the car was just not the same, I think they hurt it on that hit.
