SPLN SUX

yea but theres a couple things to that. A... were stuborn as hell and refuse to settle for anything less than what we want. B... my family basicly lives by the words, "Work hard, play harder". I work my ass off putting in 50-60 hr weeks every freakin week. You can bet you bottom dollar ill spend every dollar of it on having fun. C... we Schall's love to do what we do best... show off of course

Ive blown up so many engines that i refuse to not have guages to tell me whats going on with the engine. lookie --- http://www.mrmeanrracing.com/pics/stuff.JPG I still need 4 more too. That big piece of polished diamond plate is going to be cut like this... http://www.mrmeanrracing.com/pics/dash.JPG ...and house vacuum, oil pressure, fuel pressure, water temp, oil temp, nitrous pressure OR voltage (not sure if im using nitours or not), a 5" 200mph speedo, and a 5" 9K rpm tach... the rest are 2 5/8. I dont play around

Thats why you underbuild everything. Build it to handel 500hp, but build it to make 300. No broken parts Im building my race engine to handel 600-700, but dont plan on making more than 300. Costs a pretty penny, but its worth it.

how on earth did your drain plug back out? The only way i could see that happening is if it wasnt properly torqued down... Sucks that your engine died of starvation. Just goes to show... a OIL PRESSURE guage is worth every penny graemlins/nod.gif

PM. I open so i have to get there between 8 and 9 and dont leave untill about 7 or 8. By the time i get home and cleaned up itll be 9.

i just unlocked turbo this morning. They sure didnt try to make this game a quick one.

KMart is gehy... as long as Sears keeps craftsman stuff, thats all i care about. MUST HAVE MORE TOOLS!!

i have to work untill 7 or 8

hmmm. never knew you could do a lefty... i may find a couple oneways just so i can say i did it smile.gif

if you cant Duct' it, fuck it.

yea its got a Hachi in it. It also has an Escalade, a Navigator, and a H2... These are actully pretty fun drive. Its like trying to autoX a train. Because ive been working with engines for a little over a decade, sounds are a big thing for me. I pay attention to what things sound like just because it really is pleasing to listen too for me. At first I thought the sound of base miata was good. Very muffled, high strung... your normal DOHC 1.8L. After the exhaust work, it sounded even better. Like a Miata would. I messed with the Evo next. Again, stock, sounded right. Modded, sounded great. Sweet right? Negative. Next the GTO. Stock... it was off. Sounded like a halfassed piped 305. Not cool. Modded... X-piped 281. This cars sound is just out in left field... doesnt match. Next the Escalade. Stock... sounds like maybe an old Z28... again, no match. Once modded... Small block 400 all over it. I just dont understand where they got these sounds from. Well not where there from, but why they matched them to the cars that they did. It makes gameplay almost distracting.

graemlins/thatfunny.gif Thats good stuff man. No, my dad picked one up last year (03 Duece) and i really want one so we can take some trips. My parents got divorced when i was like 4 or 5 so any and all chances i have to spend time with my dad... i take em, no matter how expensive the medium might be

I do. Im going to pick one up in the spring. Anyone else want one? http://www.mrmeanrracing.com/pics/sts.bmp

i see cars run up and down W Broad every day at work... if i happen to see that one... ill go after it... or send a driver after it.

this game takes the term "widebody" to a whole new level...

I was refering to the outrun races, not the drag, racer X and all that. Those are easy, but i thought the random outruns should have been givin a difficulty based on your current car, not a set difficulty.

I bought it today. I havent even really broken ground into the game yet and i all ready have mixed opinions. The cars realism as far as handeling and drivability is all graemlins/thumb.gif The difficlty of the opponents in the very begining is a big graemlins/thumbsdown.gif I picked the Miata for my first car because it did so well in the first game, but in this game its almost immposible to beat the begining opponents with it. IMO, they are too difficult for stock vehicals... at least for the measly miata. After 15min of gameplay, the only thing that keeps me playing is the fact that i spent $66 on it and the book. So far, my feelings for it are graemlins/gives.gif

i guess you never really know untill you try.

let me know and ill meet you guys in the lot or something. I bowled shitty tonight... best of 136 graemlins/thumbsdown.gif

yea everyone sells em...

Me and a bunch of my crew at work go bowling every monday night at Western Lanes. If anyone would like to come join, more than welcome. Its located on the corner of old Sullivant and Georgesville Rd. Starts at 10pm and runs untill 2am. Its only $9 for as many games as you can bowl in that time frame. I just thought it might interest somebody graemlins/nod.gif

graemlins/thumbsdown.gif Ill agree wut you on more cases than not, but if guys are into the 10s NA, im sure that a street builder could figure how to squeez a 12.999 It would take a hell of a driver, that im sure of.

Thats why i pull the fuse graemlins/nod.gif ME - graemlins/nutkick.gif - ABS

dude let me know how i can help. I just replyed to your other post and would be more than happy to help wrench on either one to get ya back on the road. Ill be up for quite a while so feel free to gimme a buzz if theres anything that can be done immediatly (513)314-2436 "Work the problem people... lets not make things worse by guessing." (wise man)
