  1. Yea he was... I remember listening to Thriller in 85... fucking awesome LP album. I think my dad still has it. He was the baddest ass in the world untill about 1990... then shit got weird...
  2. How come no one complained about Jazz in the first one? I guess modern day "Projects Gangster" is OK, but 1978 Ebonics is not? I haven't seen the movie yet so I dont know, but I think its hilarious that someone would call out racism.
  3. Its value, may be in the 13-17k based on the market, auction prices, and popularity... its WORTH however, is only as much as someone is willing to give you for it. Its probably worth a lot more to you than its value.
  4. Those Navigators are fearless... they sit in that seat, knowing they are blowing down a road entirely too narrow to be doing 100mph on, and they just stare at that paper and read it.
  5. The problem with buying the land was... it wasn't really their land. if anything it "belonged" to the Spanish, who were there LONG before the French got lost and then just decided that since they didn't see anyone else around, it was theirs. All the French "explorers" were like that... they sucked at reading maps, couldn't navigate for shit and just ended up on some random shore and called it theirs. The whole Navy lining up 60-70miles out... that was TR's tactic, "Ill give you an opportunity to see it my way, then I'll MAKE you see it my way", kind of like a bipolar Hitler w/o all the genocide... he did it several times... I think he did it to the French or Spanish as well.
  6. I could too... as long as I could do it from the front.
  7. You should brush up on your history sir. Do you not recall the moment in which he lined up the Navy battle ships off the coast and told its leaders that they WILL allow the US to build the canal, and they WILL support them in any way necessary or ELSE they get shelled for 30 days and nights? Call it holding people hostage, ultimatums, slavery, whatever... it was fucked up. BUT, it did get the job done, and thats why TR was a success... as long as Z was reached, he didnt give a shit about the A-Y. Im a big history buff... i dont need to sound smart. Im just letting you know, that quote, came out of a cigar room occupied by TR, the VP, and joint chiefs, after the ultimatum was given and treaty was ever so forcefully signed.
  8. Look at this crap. http://movies.yahoo.com/news/movies.ap.org/jivetalking-twin-transformers-raise-race-issues-ap
  9. Im pretty sure that quote was designed as a cigar room punch line to describe how TR more or less enslaved South American people to build the Panama Canal...
  10. Half the poularity of the show is the question of "Who is the Stig?" Why would they tell you? It was just an excuse to get the Schu on the show. I recently heard that the REAL Stig had spilled his weekend job to a friend and they had to fire him. Perhaps this was just a cover up to finding a new Stig? BUT, if you think about it... who else is more qualified and trustworthy to hot lap supercars that dont belong to them? Especially the Renault F1 car, the Caparo T1, the Veyron for fucks sake, and the FXX?

    V8 GT-R

    In order to use a chassis as a race car, a certain number of them have to be produced as floor models. Now they could all be sold to only the big wigs of Nissan for $1, but they had to be available for sale to the "public". This was a rule that was put in place back in the day of the Can-Am madness with mustangs and Camaros... thats how the GT350/500 were able to race against the Yenko's. This quickly rolled over to the Nascar circuit which inspired the birth of the Hemi Cuda. When Chrysler desinged the 426 hemi for it race car to put the Chevys and Dodges in thier place, they had to actully put it in a car and sell it off the floor... so they cramed it in the Cuda and called it a day.
  12. Looks like a kitted Audi TT to me.

    V8 GT-R

    The original is a TT V6... this car in the video is a production NA 5.6 Litre V8
  14. its just feel... if that makes sense... I had a nitro RC10GT for a while that was easily faster than that. On a wide open track like that it'd easily been in the 50-60mph range no problem. once you figure out how to react to make corrections, its pretty easy. You can control them pretty radically in the air too, like dirt bikes. Throttle and brakes change the pitch pretty easily.
  15. Gingers have no souls.
  16. My car couldnt run that even if it was being towed by a Saturn 5.
  17. For a fraction of the price you could buy anything and make it murder stock cars of any price... Even the Caparo T1... you just have to autocross it and youll kill it.
  18. Ha. My sister and I are flying our little sister, and our dad out here to COS on Friday, only he doesn't know our little sister will be here... none of us can really remember the last time we've all seen our dad on fathers day so it'll be a treat for him to spend a few days with all of his kids at the same time.
  19. Anyone have experience with them? I'd like to pick up a 9mm, .32 or .380 for my girl friend who expressed that she wants a "cute" gun
  20. Um.... no. Not sure what maths youre using but its no where near double. GTR's run $76,840 - $79,090 ZR-1's run $103,970 - $113,970
  21. Yea I used to have a 96 Raider back in the day... me and my dad pulled it with a 2.2L 2wd S-10... never had a problem. We mostly put in at East Fork Lake... Dam side... took it to the beach side a couple times, but thats a pretty shallow graed so we ende up with the back tires in the water a lot... dam side was much better. Dont know how yours runs, but i hit 62mph one fine morning out there at East Fork... water was like glass and I remember it flashing on the LCD 61, 62, 61, 60. Best I could figure was the weight was just right and I fucked it up when i leaned up a bit to read the speedo. I know it was only supposed to do 55 according to the brochure... but it had no problem breaking that ever. I miss it
  22. Flat is just like gloss... you get out of it what time you put in it.
