  1. Very nice pics, Kev. I kinda feel for Buck, though. My MS3 actually made it in one photo, my bro's SRT4 made 3 pics. Although they're not as exciting as Ant's Formula or the '07 Z06 or the SC Viper, is it really necessary to have those 3 vehicles to account for 25% of the pics? Even Turborust's 'Stang made quite an appearance. I'm not mad or bitter in the least as those cars doing burnouts and running faster times are obviously the larger attraction, but a few more of the little people wouldn't hurt . Even the Evo's and WRX's were semi-scarce comparatively. -Kevin
  2. Regardless of whether it's LEGAL to be driven on the street or not, I would hardly consider it a street car. Nobody in their right mind would drive a completely stripped, single-seat car on bald tires to the movies or to grab a bite to eat. With bald tires and no windshield wipers, forget driving it in anything but 100% dry conditions, and even then he still probably trailers that car to the track. My '03 Cobra would've ran mid-11's with that rear-end setup on those tires and it was daily driven. My car was a street car, his is not. -Kevin
  3. +8 2nd try, -13 third try. -Kevin Edit: 5th try -20 Edit: 6th try -21...not quite sure I understand why the score is so low, though. I'm usually averaging at least Eagles. -2 x 18 holes should equal -36 right?

    Tongue

    Yeah, her tongue is definitely wide, but as far as length goes, there's a guy out there that DEMOLISHES that. He was on Ripley's Believe It or Not a while back I believe. He could shoot his tongue out, put his hand underneath it, and push it up into his eye. Crazy long. -Kevin
  5. What's even more retarded about this whole situation is the ridiculous prices the RIAA is charging. $7.87 per song? At that rate, a typical CD would only come with 2 songs on it. Besides, you can LEGALLY download music off ITunes for $.99 a song. Why charge 8 times the going rate? Dumb as fuck. -Kevin
  6. Neonkiller's statements hold true for Sam's as well. And ours are free. At Sam's, we use plugs or patch-plugs. 98% of all repairable punctures are easily fixed with a plug, which are much easier to do anyways. Whoever you took it to first either A. Screwed up drilling the hole, B. Did a shitty job plugging/patching, or C. Missed something else that could be wrong. Are the wheels steel, aluminum, or chrome? On both aluminum and chrome wheels, it could easily be a slow leak from the bead due to corrosion. Some corrosion spots are easily missed in the presence of a nail/screw/puncture of some sort. So to answer your question, they were jerking you around. -Kevin
  7. I'll spot $50. Well, the Speed 3 was less than impressive yesterday, but since everyone else appears to feel the same I'm gonna blame track prep. It was my first time taking it to the track, so I'm sure my lack of control of the launch is a big thing to, but I just couldn't get a solid 60' time really. And they sure as hell weren't consistant. My best 60' was 2.29, worst was 2.57. And my trap was everywhere as well. The two most interesting slips were: R/T .484 .375 60' 2.291 2.401 330 6.354 6.486 1/8 9.571 9.707 MPH 76.91 76.83 1000 12.330 12.464 1/4 14.662 14.793 MPH 96.10 98.46 I know usually more wheelspin on the launch accounts for some difference, but almost 2.5 mph? The speed was almost the same at the 1/8, so it must be a 4th-5th issue I might need to work on. -Kevin
  8. LMMFAO!!!! Cmon, man. Even if you're retarded and can't sing worth a shit, know the fucking words. Honestly, I don't even know the words, but I wouldn't be up there attempting to sing/mimic/grunt/gargle some meaningless shit. God I fucking lost it when he starts "belting it out" at the end ROFL!!! -Kevin P.S. If you don't find retarded people doing retarded things funny, don't post in this thread. You'll ruin it for others.
  9. I used to play F-Zero on SNES all the time. My dad used to get me out of school for a "doctor's appointment" and take me home to watch me play it. I was so freakishly good at that game it was ridiculous. On Death Wind 1 I think it was called (the 4th level I believe), all top 10 records were between 1'45.60 and 1'45.69. I cant imagine how bad i'd suck if I tried playing it again. -Kevin
  10. Just finished reading Big Wet Arses 2 and my laughs just keep getting louder and higher pitched LMAO! -Kevin
  11. Kate is mine. Back off, whore! -Kevin
  12. The French restaurant scene with Bruce Campbell was definitely one of the highlights from the film. Couldn't stop laughing myself. Mensan, I can't imagine them being able to cut an hour and a half out. They probably could've made this into two separate movies and furthered the storyline with each villian (I'm assuming there was more to it in the comics). Trying to fit 3 villians while following the relationship troubles between Parker and Mary Jane made them cut certain things some comic fans would've liked to have seen I'm sure, but for the time alotted they covered the necessities. Would you rather them NOT kill off Venom? supldys, I'm pretty sure Peter Parker has always been a nerd/crybaby. He may be a superhero, but he's still human. When the woman he wants to marry tells him to fuck himself (not verbatim obviously), I can't imagine him to say "Well, no big deal. I'm a superhero and therefore can't cry". If you enjoyed the first two, you're not going to dislike this one, plain and simple. If you do, there's a problem with you, not the movie .
  13. DISCLAIMER: Just in case some of you weren't aware, this is not an Oscar nominee, nor is it intended to be. My rating is based on the movie's goal: pure entertainment. Summary: Through the use of the Internet, a movie producer has taken Reality TV to an entirely new level. 10 of the most dangerous criminals on the face of the planet have been tracked down and brought to a remote island to play a little game. The contestants, each of whom were already on death row, must engage in the ultimate form survival-of-the-fittest - kill or be killed. The last man or woman left alive will walk away with their freedom and a nice starter kit bank roll. And the entire thing will be caught on film through the use of hundreds of preset cameras and broadcasted online across the entire world for a small online payment. Pros: Who doesn't wanna see big and crazy sons-of-bitches fight to the death from every possible angle? Did I mention 2 of the 10 were women? With nice racks? Cons: Not sure how much it really matters, but I thought some of the shots of fast-paced action were visually hard to follow. Oh, and neither rack is exposed. Conclusion: 4.75/5.0. Bad-fucking-ass is the simplistic way to describe this movie. Steve Austin not only demolishes shit, but has some comic relief and an intriguing back story. I find most action films so easy to predict, but this one actually surprised me at the end. Quite a good soundtrack as well.

    Wow... I

    All very nice finds. -Kevin
  15. ...wow. One of the best I've seen. Ever. -Kevin
  16. There was a very similar video back in the day of bikers doing stunts and shit, and the video ended in a guy in a white Transam wearing a helmet doing this very same thing. These kids probably saw it and decided to attempt it. They succeeded, unlike that one video of the stupid fuck in his pickup that took out a fire hydrant and crashed into a telephone pole. I, personally, wouldn't give these kids a Darwin award any sooner than half the people in the X-games. They took a risk and they lucked out. Meh. -Kevin
  17. J...j..Jason? Sup, man? What's your bro been up to? Hence the quotes around "scary" . Just a lot of out-of-fucking-nowhere attacks with insanely loud sound effects.
  18. DISCLAIMER: I never got into comic books, so this review will not consist of anything in regards to "historical" accuracy. Summary: In the third installment to the Spiderman trilogy, Peter Parker must face a number of new challenges. A strange substance has arrived on Earth via a meteor of some sort and attempts to provide Spiderman with a more powerful, yet less caring alter-ego. Complications arise not only at work, but in his love life and more importantly within himself. Throwing in the addition of a couple new villians, Parker finds himself in confrontation he might not be able to handle on his own. Pros: It's fucking Spiderman. As usual, special effects were top notch, new villians always kick ass, and character development was rather thorough. The corny acting of Tobey Maguire continues to nicely fill the Peter Parker role. Cons: The character development, while nice, made the movie feel a good half hour longer than it was, and the amount of movie attributed to the storyline itself far outweighed the screen time of actual fight scenes. Conclusion: 4.25/5.00. I was really hoping to walk out of the movie with the full 5 points, but it just wasn't quite up there for me. I think anyone who saw or had any interest in seeing the first two will definitely enjoy this film, it just wasn't the edge-of-your-seat thrill ride I was sort of expecting. There were more incidences in which I was laughing or jumping (ya know, those jump-out "scary" parts that pussies like me shake half the seats in the row on) then there were moments of awe during a fight scene. Definitely go see it, but I expect Transformers and even the third installment of Pirates of the Caribbean to top Spidey in the "Must-See-Movies" list this Summer. -Kevin
  19. Any idea how those just came outta fucking nowhere? -Kevin
  20. Gonna agree on this note. I think there are a number of different reasons to put better tires on either axle, regardless of drive. On my 'Stang, I preferred to have the better tires on the front during the winter to provide more stable stopping power in harsher weather and just deal with the fishtailing. Plus, when it's dry out, the less tread on the drive wheels the better. On a FWD car, I almost always recommend the best tires be put on the front. Most of your braking and all of your power is coming from the front, so it only makes sense to have the best tires placed there. As for rotations, we usually just go straight from front to back. There's less room for error when doing the work and for general purposes accomplishes the main goal - even wear on the tires. The Goodyear and Michelin books will tell you that FWD vehicles should have the fronts crossed to the rears and the rears move straight forward, and that RWD should be just the opposite. AWD vehicles should cross both fronts and rears to the other axle. This is all assuming non-directional tires. Even so, you could follow the same procedures, but it would involve dismounting and remounting tires. -Kevin
  21. If I remember, I'll check the price at Sam's tomorrow. We'd have to order it, but I'll see what they run. -Kevin
  22. Summary: Nick Powell (Chatwin) was arguably the perfect teenager. He had his best friend, a popular, likable persona, and was planning to set his writing career in motion after graduation. When his friend gets in deep with the wrong crowd, however, Nick decides to get involved. Things take a turn for the worse as this tight crowd, led by a female delinquent Annie (Levieva), beat Nick and leave him for dead. Oddly enough, Nick's life hangs by a thread as his "spirit" is stuck between realms with the task of discovering the truth behind his attack. The problem becomes that Nick's only hope of survival is for the detectives on the case to find his body before time runs out. And the only person who can help make that happen is the scared teen girl that put him there to begin with. Pros: The movie trailer convinces you the storyline is intriguing and that these young, scarcely-known actors/actresses would put on an impressive show. Cons: The movie itself said just the opposite. The storyline was poorly driven, poorly executed, and just far too slow. 90% of the acting was grotesque, the other 10% mediocre. Conclusion: 1.5/5.0. Cut and dry, it was a waste of time and money. Even if you're extremely curious, I'd wait for Blockbuster to grab it (if they do). -Kevin
