  1. go to goodwill or thrift stores and get him a vtech laptop so it at least makes sound when he bangs on the keys
  2. Truth If I build up mine, i'm going crazy 60e or jump to an 80e. I know of too many people that went to the 400 and HATE it. Even know of a guy with a 400 and gear vendor and he still hates it and wants to go to an 80e.
  3. yep, He covered it. http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f275/skylineb2/nx.jpg

  5. If I make the effort to go, I wanna see what the top is not if it can do 130.
  6. My car is also heavy, plus I'm not sure if I'd want to run my car for that hard and long. Dunno if the rod bolts could take it.
  7. My job is more important than one racing day. Some of us have obligations to fulfill and a day at work is more important than a day of play unfortunately.
  8. I get grief over picking my TR230 cam as opposed to a MS4 or something. I agree 100%, too many people get caught up in the peak number @ 7k+. Many of those peak cams have a nearly useless power band on a street car because it's too narrow and too high in the RPM range. I'll take a broad torque curve any day over a peak power band.
  9. I never said 150+, I said 135+. That extra 15MPH can be a big hill to climb. Mine is a 3.42, best trap to date has been 122 in the 1/4. I think I could get 135+ in a mile at least. Though, i'm with many of the other people in that i'd love to see what it would do for the hell of it but i'm not gonna build it as a mile car.
  10. I gargled Brians' balls so I'm amped and ready. I'll race you next day I can attend for a dum dums.
  11. That's ok, if you pick a better day for D42 when I'm not out of state, I'LL take care of him.
  12. No, but if you are trapping 120+ in the 1/4, I don't think it's too far off the mark to consider you could hit 135+.
  13. If I could get the time, I'd lock it in...... Hangs head in shame. Damn, same here..... I guess i'm out too. Locked. You deliver right?
  14. I got a whole AMD setup, or I got Intel stuff as well. I can do the AMD for somewhat cheap, since I want to replace it anyway. AMD Athlon x2 3800+ Dual Core Processor, 2GB DDR2 Memory, ASUS M2R32-MVP Motherboard and Retail AMD Cooler. $65 shipped to you. If you have a little more for a budget, I got WAY more parts than I know what to do with. Anything from an Intel 980x, a full Skulltrail System with dual QX9775's or as low end as a Celeron-L 450.

    Best b team???

    Yeah, not even fucking close. Ask anyone that's ever seen my car....
  16. dated for 5 years, married for 11. I'd never do it again.

    I'm a solid C, best my car has done lately is a 13.92@120 or so.
  18. I stopped selling on eBay a bit ago. Not worth the headaches.
  19. I'm not that far away and I never bother to go there. They never have what I want/need in stock.
  20. I got 7's on mine but I don't recall if I got TR7's or not. I think I got them from HSW and got the BR but I better double check since it's been a WHILE since I put them in. Haven't even sprayed it yet though so it doesn't matter anyway.
  21. I probably could have, but it was already getting late and this was the cheapest saw I have found that actually started when I showed up. I didn't feel like playing the back and forth game, especially considering it had a case two extra chains and looked pretty much new. It was well worth the $30 IMHO.
  22. Was my victory short lived? I decided to clean up the saw today and take the time to sharpen the chains. Sharpened the chain on the saw using the dremel kit, switched to the "spare" chain and sharpened it as well. Now I have a spare one that's already been sharpened. Then I decided to test my skills. Once again followed the directions and the saw fired right up so I got to work. Dropped another tree and began cutting it into log sized pieces. Then it happened..... The saw flat died. Pulled the cord and it fired right back up. Hmm, what gives. O-well, hit the throttle and limbed up some of the logs then BAM, died again..... SHIT. Fearing the worst, I pull the cord. Yep, fired right up but any touch of the throttle and it instantly dies. Double SHIT. After a couple more pulls of the cord, getting it running and it consequently dying, I think the guy may have been right. Then my brain kicked in. Popped off the fuel cap, yep, don't see a level. Pour some gas/oil mix from my weedeater in and pull the cord. Fired right back up and off to work it goes.... WHEW! BTW, for those with a chain saw, I HIGHLY recommend the dremel sharpening kit. I bet it wasn't 5-10 minuter after setup that I had both chains sharpened. That thing is easy as pie and makes short work of sharpening.
