  1. In. With the 20.04 index, I might be able to compete with some of you bastards.
  2. I like the way they used the shock tower brace as a motor mount! Interesting idea.
  3. Old circus trick: you CAN do this without getting bit, IF you don't touch the inside of the croc/gator's mouth. If you don't touch his mouth, he actually can't SEE your hand in there, because of how his eyes are set. Touch the inside of his mouth, SNAP, like a bear trap. He touched it. OWNED.
  4. Cop got him GOOD! Guy had to have spent a couple of weeks in the hospital after that hit.
  5. Totally wrong about the fit-and-finish. Test drove a regular CTS and the interior is almost as well put together as a Mercedes. Performance was pretty good, too. With the 5.7 and the suspension upgrades, the V has got to be a fucking demon.
  6. Too bloody right, I saw a guy in an old Delta88 completely miss that curve once. Wasn't much left after he hit the divider head-on at 80+mph.
  7. Never even saw it in the first place. I'm done with this subject, so have fun. Oh, and next time you insult someone's intelligence, be sure to use spell-check.
  8. Morse and 161 area=worst red-light-runner area in Columbus. If there's a red light, there's an *hole sailing through it. Strange though, it's also heavy on people slowpoking along at 35 in 50.

    Hmm..

    I got it too. Didn't care enough to comment.
  10. Your grasp of political reality is almost as brilliant as your spelling. How can you support the Bush administration, when every day we hear new reports (From all but the most rabidly conservative news agencies)of how poorly the War in Iraq has been handled. We have troops without body armor, vehicles without armor or with inadequate armor or with "hillbilly armor"(And don't give me that rag about the liberal press "undermining" the war effort, the improvised armor story broke well before the insurgency got going, and the administration did nothing.). We have a no-bid contract to a company Dicky-Boy used to work for, which subsequently overcharged the government and shortchanged the troops. We have an IRR call-up that is calling back people who had no idea that they COULD be called up. And let's not forget that were still best buddies with the Saudi royal family, whose own people want out of power so badly that they are willing to kidnap and kill to accomplish that goal. Not to metion that most of the terrorists involved in 9/11 were Saudi. Has Bush said one damn word about that? We have an election in the Ukraine that is so bogus that the Moscow party tried to poison the winner in order to stay in power, the same Moscow party that is backed so heavily by Putin, who is hauling Russia back into communism by the ankle. And yet Bush has not even asked Putin to denounce their actions, and even seems to be good friends with the commie bastard. Just so you don't think that I'm harping on the bad points and ignoring his grasp of domestic fuck-ups, how about "No Child Left Behind"? An unfunded mandate to already badly under-funded schools, that requires all teachers to be "highly qualified", but sets no actual standard. How about social security? Bush wants to give "younger workers" private accounts in which to invest their social security earnings? Nevermind that this would cost trillions of dollars and leave a tax gap a small moon could pass through unnoticed. And nevermind that most "young workers" have all the investment sense of a dairy cow (myself included). Let's not forget that Bush and his cronies pushed through a huge tax-cut for their own tax-bracket at the same time that they were pushing an $87,000,000,000 spending bill for the war(Which didn't even begin to cover the actual cost of the war.). No matter how hard I look, I cannot find ONE DAMN THING that Bush has done right. And it seems that, somehow, HE can't find one thing he did WRONG.
  11. Strange, but kinda cool. Tails are clears for a New Beetle.
  12. If you're looking for a good deal on a factory-return vehicle(lease return, 23-25k miles), keep an eye out at the auction on Jackson Pike. I worked there as a Ford factory return inspector and some of the cars coming back from rental leases are in incredible shape. They also do Nissan, VW, and various bank-lease return vehicles. Only dealers can bid on the lease return vehicles, so set up a deal ahead of time with someone who has a dealers license. They bid, you pay. Or you could try the repo auctions on Wednesdays.
  13. Found another clock, on a pub or something, but I don't have a screen capture. It's along the canal, look for a brick building about a block back, has a minaret kinda thingy on it. Clock is on the left aboe an awning. There's a tour boat in the canal right in front of it.
  14. Found this on Bonneville Club May be repost
  15. Neon green M/T valve covers? Gotta love swapmeets! tongue.gif
  16. CTS-V? Appealing or Apalling. It all depends which end of the barrel you're looking at. Beast motor, great performance, nice looks, beautiful interior, lots of aftermarket already out there for the Z06. Potential for Godliness abounds.
  17. Lay them flat, so they don't get a flat spot. I've been told you should deflate them, but I have no idea why it would make any difference.
  18. I want one of these http://70.85.8.234/~exbyte/media/videos/f511e2f5491729200c72a10ed1a0bd53.WMV
  19. AAAGCGKK!!TTTHHHHHBBBT! Double-post! me big weener! graemlins/jerkit.gif
  20. You can turn left against red only if you are turning left FROM a one-way street ONTO the left hand lane of a one-way street.
  21. Ifyou have the 3 liter non-SHO motor, I wouldn't even bother, I went through three trannies in a year when I owned my POS '90 Taurus. The only reason I kept the car was that I had an AAMCO lifetime guarantee, so the rebuilds were free. BTW, not one problem with the engine, ever. Sold it when a panel rusted all the way through.
  22. The cop may have been going by a local noise ordinance, in which case, HE CAN GET FUCKED. State law over-rides local, tell him to get a Db meter.
  23. NOTE: I AM NOT AN ANIMAL RIGHTS SUCK-TIVIST I eat burgers, have a leather interior and wear steel-toe leather boots. I also enjoy blasting the crap out of the damned rabbits that keep eating my Mom's plants. On the other hand, RATIONAL, ethical treatment of animals is not too much to ask. And yeah the fucker with the camera had better've TRIED to help, at least.
  24. Why aren't people glad we have raccoons and pigeons and mean-ass geese? Can you imagine what Columbus would look like w/out them to eat all the crap that gets thrown on the ground?
  25. Same as the Astro also goes for Chevy trucks(1500-2500), they just don't have the brakes. Does the trailer you are going to use have brakes? If not, you are going to need a 350/3500 in order to stop that kind of weight.
