How much is too much power for a street car?
TTQ B4U replied to noobiemcnooberson.'s topic in Passing Lane
^^ yeah but sitting there making noise in a V2 is still cooler than any VW -

The downside to the above is the DD part. 6mos of the year yes. Downside is like Kirk said, the other 6 mos it's not. I was so heavily leaning towards a Gen2 V but after driving one in cold weather and realizing that it's fun but not in such weather, I've moved to an AWD interest. Now if the V came in AWD...... -
^^ Let us know how it works out. I have all types of wireless systems and the Roku is still the best and fastest. The Amazon stick was initially my favorite for it's GUI and interface speed but the performance of it is not good. Lags constantly where the Roku on the same wifi does not. Not sure if it's the Amazon stick or the apps but their Plex App lags 50% of the time I try and stream from my server. Now that WOW added Netflix to their DVR Box, I don't use my Amazon any more.

FS: 2012 Audi S4 Quattro Auto S tronic

Saw it at Easton yesterday. He drove it mildly while the guy in the Black A4 in front of him was left to fuck with a lowly Fusion -
Haha! Kickstands in the burbs are better than bikes falling over hitting cars. Especially my cars I also don't want him dropping a $450 bike down on the ground. At least let him / the bike earn the marks it will get.

Thanks again to everyone that provided input. Cheesy cell pics of my son who just helped me mount his kickstand and lock. For a mid priced bike I really like it. Not light but certainly not heavy. Noticeably faster with the larger wheels, especially once you get rolling. http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj84/crms3er/20150421_193351%20copy%20web_zps4ln59raw.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj84/crms3er/20150421_193422%20copy%20web_zpsdjtipf2q.jpg http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj84/crms3er/20150421_193430%20copy%20web_zps4tnmoiph.jpg

http://www.businessinsider.com/uber-driver-with-concealed-handgun-prevents-mass-shooting-in-chicago-2015-4 Nice to see some good press for a licensed holder.

I've done both. If they are really bad just replace them with some Brembo Blanks. However if the rotors aren't too bad then you could just have them turned. My Fusion vibrated a little at 25k so I had them turned and replaced the pads. Simple fix and now at 65k with no issues.

Good to hear. Pics of the range now after the loads were put in place?

Sounds like most marriages.

Since 2007, more than 22 young Somali men have also traveled from Minnesota to Somalia to join the militant group al-Shabab. One man, 19-year-old Hamza Ahmed, was stopped at a New York City airport in November as he and three others were attempting to travel to Syria I can spot a couple key identifiers in the above. Lots of this crap, we bring upon ourselves. Sounds horrible but it's true. We have enough bodies in this country. It's about time we start evaluating who we let in our borders and why.

I'll give you that point as overall numbers, yes whites outnumber non-whites in both population totals and crime totals. It would be interesting to see the stats on white vs non-white on who runs more often and who resists or fights more often when confronted by the police. I don't see either following the stats of pure numbers. We both know a black guy getting shot by the cops draws more attention and most certainly more attention than a white guy getting shot by the cops. I stand by my point that as a group per capita whites are more law abiding in terms of not getting arrested vs non-whites. The FBI Stats vs the US Population numbers show that. I also believe they are less likely to be running from the police. Face it, these events usually take place in crap areas of town where the population isn't exactly white and the odds don't follow the general stats. Ferguson, MO nor North Charleston aren't exactly Dublin, OH Lastly, I also believe even a purple martian won't get shot if he doesn't run from or fight with the police. I don't need any statistics to prove that, just a bit of common sense.

odds are likely that more non-white commit such crimes and run from police?

Meh....don't know much about the Freddie Gray case. Eric Harris appears to be an accident and even his brother said he didn't believe it was a racial case. Cop is paying his dues now. Walter Scott was pretty fucked up situation and that cop is getting what he deserved too. Not condoning any of the above but in the end, but the one thing they all have in common is a history of crime and they were all running from the police. Pretty simple solution is don't run from the Police....but hey, Darwin awards get handed out both ways.
-
If you're referring to the kid in Ferguson, MO, he was as guilty as they come so please.......dude was on video robbing a store and the cop in the SUV was clearly struggling with him over his gun as evident by the fact that he discharged it in the car. I don't give a shit was the local rats say they saw, the facts don't support their story. Dude charged at the cop, weapon or not, all those events add up to a dead bad guy and one less turd society needs to worry about. Funny how everyone always claims their "little baby" was so special and innocent.....yet they are thugs knocking over stores and fighting with cops. Yeah.....perfect little angels they are. Brown got what was coming to him. People need to stop trying to make a saint out of him. He was far from it.

not sure what lightly modded means though. to me that's just an intake which isn't going to do anything. he'd have to have the software flash to make a pulley work otherwise the computer will bleed off the increased pressure. Once you have both you're running low 12's. At full retail that's like $1,300

cop wasn't sure if he had a weapon thus why he said he was clearly watching the hand the bad guy had in a pocket. Had a weapon come out he would have likely been shot dead. kudos to the cop and likely his military training and mindset for allowing him to keep cool. like the chief said, he could have dropped him and walked away with a clean consonance. I can't help but wonder however that one day he does this again and gets shot or hurt. the other guys life isn't worth the risk IMO. Drop him and go home. We worry way too much about the bad guys in this country.

Some here have followed my posts about our Boxer who has been battling Lymphoma for the past several months. It is with a heavy heart and more tears than I care to admit as a grown man, that we had to take Xena to the MedVet ER at 1am last night for our final goodbye hugs. She battled strong and bravely through nearly 6 months of Chemo. A move that I'm very glad we took as it truly was a life saver for her on many accounts. There was never any side effects or problems and she actually enjoyed the attention and "play dates" with upwards of 6 other dogs, 5 of whom were also Boxers when she would go once per week for treatment. Xena was also a life saver to our Beloved Male (Ares) who also battled cancer like a champ. After we lost his sister in December of 2008 he really needed and enjoyed the energy Xena brought him as a pup and no doubt helped him live on for another 16 months with energy that I never thought I see in him again. Xena was always a body guard to my daughter and wife and never left their side when around. She fought off two dogs that broke loose once and never wavered when standing guard at the house. We jokingly said she was more pitbull than our pitbull mix (patches). She lived a good life and was spoiled right up to the end. I'm so very glad we had some beautiful spring weather that she enjoyed and enjoy it we did with several walks and fun outside. Laying in the grass and smelling the breeze as she lay outside or in front of our windows was her favorite way of relaxing. I'll miss her dearly and only regret that there was simply nothing more I could do nor resources around that could have saved her from this fate. Cancer sucks and it's taken way too many of my friends, relatives and loyal companions. RIP my "Baby Girl": Taken from us way too soon. Photo from yesterday as we spent all day with her: http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj84/crms3er/xena/IMG_1768%20copy_web_zps9ctlcwfp.jpg Head Turn was common from early on: December 2008 http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj84/crms3er/xena/puppy_zps1xeltn9c.jpg Play time with Ares who's life she saved: January 2009 http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj84/crms3er/xena/areas%20and%20xena_zpsnrogonci.jpg Body Guard to Sophia from early on: November 2010 http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj84/crms3er/xena/best%20Friends_zpsohaybytw.jpg My Beautiful Flashy Brindle Boxer: Xena, Our Warrior Princes (named by my wife) - June 2014 http://i270.photobucket.com/albums/jj84/crms3er/xena/beauty_zpsnohvbqez.jpg

^^ we did and ironically bought the same bike for my son. Hydraulic brakes weren't a requirement as he's not killing it on trails.......yet.......but the price wasn't bad and the bike is pretty cool. I went Medium in frame given he is only 12. Should suit him for the next few years. Thanks for all the feedback. Worked out well.

You have PM. I knew I saw that car somewhere before. I just put it all together as I saw your plate as I walked the dogs yesterday. Welcome! -
Downside is OnStar has to be on the vehicle. Also, lots of stolen cars have incorrect tags so how do you target a specific vehicle if you don't have the VIN? I say deploy small drones to go after the car

how they could not have some type of water barrier or impact zone or something at the end of that rail is beyond me. http://elderlee.ehclients.com/images/landing/Impact_Attenuators.jpg
