Boats in general are unreliable/maintance intensive as hell WITHOUT adding a rotary into the mix. I will say that in a boating application, a turbo rotary doesn't have to deal with the cooling issues that a automotive application has to deal with. The lake is the radiator, and can keep the intercooler nice and cool too. The boat is fast as fuck, no doubt about it. It also didn't look overly stable, was pretty small, and 1/2 the boat was the motor! Eric: there are some performance diesel applications. I have an article from a couple years ago in a boating mag (in my work truck, so I can't quote it right now), where I believe it was Baja was offering one of their bigger boats w/ twin diesels and a surface drive setup. It was faster than the exact same boat with a more conventional stern drive setup w/ BBC's making significantly more HP.

Jeebus!!! Imagine tuning + cam that REQUIRES tuning + 200 shot. I'd say they could get 800RWHP out of it. Though 700RWHP should get it into the 9's w/ any sort of traction.

I had a slight wheel hop problem a long time ago (mostly in the wet). New lower control arms too care of it. The bushings in the stockers weren't exactly nice looking, so new bushing probably would have fixed it, but might as well just put a better LCA in; they aren't that expensive.

I think I'd rather just have the real thing then. Mmmmmm, Chipotle. I require it at least once a week, at a minimum. That's what I had for lunch today.

Z51 C6. That option should bring the C6 to near C5 Z06 handling standards. Have the torque mgmt. removed from the PCM, and straight line performance should be fairly similar too. Gotta get the navigation option too. I love the C5, but that C6 is one bad ass Vette.

Just gotta know the lifestyles of the previous women you've been with. Obviously not an overly accurate way to know, but knowing you are with people who take care of themselves and don't bang anything that moves does help some. I dated the ex 3 years exclusively, and haven't had any signs of any STD's thus far, so I should be alright. If I did have anything (I doubt I do), it's a little late now anyway.

I've never been tested, and have never been asked to do so. My junk seems to be working just fine, and I haven't been sleeping w/ dirty whores, so I should be good.

Has Honda been forgiven yet for designing the Element? I know Pontiac hasn't been forgiven for the Asstek yet!

I didn't work today, so I didn't get to listen yet. I'll probably listen to one of the replays when I'm driving to my g/f's place this evening.

They are slow but reliable. I'd never waste my money trying to make mine fast though.

My take: - PS video, about what I would expect to happen. Though I'm not sad to see the NSX go; IMO one of the biggest ripoffs going. - Veyron video all f'ed up. I'd like to see a full test on that car - I love the Enzo. I can't believe Jeremy called the F50 ugly; that car looks awesome. So does the F40 though, and I'd take all 3.

Fuck that Top Gear video. They forgot to mention the Vette is also a car that cost a lot less than their beloved Porsche and has a far more features to it. Obviously the retard couldn't launch the Vette either on that drag race.

I avoid contacting people from HS, unless they are friends I still have connections with. But I thought HS sucked (college was SSSOOOO much better).

Shoulda got a TH400. Or manned up and got a built 4L80 and crammed that in there. Or put the car on a big diet and tossed in a glide.

Had you not been in your gear, they probably would have thrown the book at you.

Though he "could" get me a raise, they don't work like that around there. I might get a nice pat on the back.

Damn, I'm impressed. It only took some bolt-on's AND A DIFFERENT FREAKING MOTOR to accomplish low 14's in a car that's basically a tin can on wheels (I used to own one). Yet Pontiacs are "ghey." For some reason I don't think I'd ever waste my time racing your piece with my Pontiac.

#1: Anthony, are you sure Insights deal was for digital cable? That seems REALLY low for that kind of package. What you are getting (2 DVR's, 4Mbps, basic phone) should be $130.50/month, which is still a damn good deal IMO. #2: I know exactly who you were e-mailing; not a guy we like people to e-mail, because he can make our lives a living hell. But things WILL get done ASAP when he is contacted. #3: You can't compare Insights complete PIECE OF SHIT DVR to what we and Time Warner offer. Insights piece is a total joke; I'd buy a Tivo unit and pay for their service before I'd deal with Insight's joke of a DVR. #4: TJ, something doesn't sound quite right about your story. If you call in for an outage of service, if it is before 2PM that day, someone will roll out the SAME DAY to fix it. The calls can be even later for phone outages for same day service. But you can't blame us if you don't call in for 6 days; how are we going to know its out, unless it is an area outage that either we see from a node being down, or from others in the area calling in. If you have someone come out and take a look, the intermintant problem you are having could probably be resolved. As for the hour wait, if it was during the Texas area huricane, our call center was down there, and we had VERY limited staff at another location; nothing we can really do about that. #5: Thorne, we don't offer On-Demand. We have "In-Demand PPV" but that's totally different. On-Demand has proven for other cable companies to not be profitable, problematic, and not a big customer demand for it. #6: Ben, please share your "horror" stories about WOW and packet loss. Because I'm going to bet they are just that, stories, most likely from people that don't know WTF they are talking about. #7: Sam, where at in Reynoldsburg are you? There "might" be service in your area. There are cases where the prints the call center has aren't accurate for a certain area, and we might have service where the prints say they don't. I know we cover almost all of R-burg, which is why I ask. #8: Anthony, phone and internet CAN be installed at the same time (we do it all the time). But, it may take longer to get your service than to do them seperately. When porting a phone number over, we have to get the ILEC 10 business days (by law, this applies to any phone provider) to allow for the number to be ported over. Nothing any phone provider has control over. Even w/ new phone numbers, it still takes us time to get everything provisioned and ready through the switch. That's why people tend to get their cable/internet installed first, and their phone ported over once the number is ready. No company is perfect, WOW included. But last year WOW was rated #1 in the nation for customer satisifaction for cable/sat. providers by JD Power. WWWAAAYYY ahead of Warner, and of course even further ahead of Insight (who was below average, imagine that). Even ahead of DirectTV and Dish Network, who used to be #1 and #2 in the nation.

1180kg DRY weight = 2601.9 lbs. Wet weight is probably somewhere in the mid 2700's at least. Still damn light weight. Of course you can buy a damn nice house for the cost of that thing. As cool as it would be to have one, I gotta go with the house.

That's one hell of a tan line!

Man, if my parents did that, I would probably try to sue their asses, and never speak to them again. That's just f'ed up.

I probably shouldn't breed = won't have to save for child's college fund. Not like anyone saved for my college fund.

#3: fbody.com has sucked for years. SSSOOOOOO many better F-body oriented boards out there.

I do when my g/f isn't around. Not that I need you to tell me when to. You drive a faggy Honduh, true story. Probably runs 17's all day long too....I'm highly impressed.

New cars vs. used cars are not a fair price comparison. Which is why I ALWAYS buy used.
