We were even discussing mythbusters and they are very much wrong in that episode.

Yes, it does.

 

And, I think Clay didn't get a tailgate with the truck.?

 

No it doesn't, was talking with a buddy of mine one night out in garage and we were discussing this and having no tailgate or the tailgate down is better than it being up. But overall a tonneau cover or cap was even better. Now before you going saying he's a dumbshit knows nothing. He been an aerodynamicist for 30+ years, been on several Le Mans and ALMS teams as the track engineer, was also the track engineer for Bobby Rahal when he won his CART championship in 92.

As much as i dislike any ford and loath the focus so much more. I wont lie... i'd rock it around town.

For the s10 i normally put winter tires on it and two sand tubes in the back.

 

Now with the mazda all i have it bags of salt in the back, a clutch is a very helpful torque control device in the snow... and having all of 90-100hp is also helpful.

I'd shit bricks if i randomly saw a spider that big randomly wandering around my house.

For awhile jegs was price matching amazon.com which was awesome.

And that is why you don't fuck your sister.

 

quoted for the truth.

 

Anyways... that kid has some bipolar issues going on.

If any of you want to drop a crap load of money on a knife there is a guy out of galena that makes super high end knives. Joe Perry (guitarist for aerosmith) carries and uses one of his knives which i think is pretty cool. DRD also uses ball bearings on most of their folded knives which is sweet.

Once i deem the need to get another knife this is what i'll be getting.

I have a mantis with a 3" blade that i like to carry most of the time. If i'm at work i have a husky utility knife that i carry.

At the knife factory i bought mine at in tennessee alot of the sales rep there went from carrying spyderco and more expensive knives to carrying the mantis knives.

holy hell that's awesome.

hey you might want to ask gary at AA if he wants it, i know he was looking for some a couple weeks ago.

heres a long description of my engine builders destroked 302sbc so high RPMs are are definitely possible even in an old school push rod motor.

He used to hold several NHRA records with this car.

 

My dad also used to work up at pacemakers in the late 80's and they had another guy show up with a 67 z28 that raced super stock with a destroked 302. He sat on the line with the throttle pegged, was able to max out a 12.5K rpm Moroso cable drive tach. They guessed he sat right around 14k RPM on the line and it never missed a beat.

I'm really looking forward to coming out this year. Glad to see your putting it on again this year. How many people on average showed up last year?

Oh btw one thing thats missing on the website is what time is starts.

I've been wondering the same thing all day.

Dragway 42 will be having their 11th annual Hangover Nationals.

It's a 20.10 dial-in. I'll be up there in my mazda or my s10.

It's all 1/4 mile. Hopefully there will be plenty of snow and ice to have some fun.

Nickey :bangbang:

Need to get some prices on some tires for my mazda. they're going to be 205/75/15. Just need a good long lasting tire that will take being driven in some snow and the kinda shit.

 

Thanks in advance,

Nickey

hahaha roflmao

Anyone else have a bunch of cats laying underneath theirs? Our cats love it.

 

my cat likes laying under the tree too. The fucker also steals the candy canes and hides them throughout the house.

Call Todd Quinn at Platinum Engine Designs. Had our 463 Big Block chevy tuned there. He used to run Larry Morgans (NHRA pro stock) engine program. I know most guys in columbus wanted $350 for 3 runs and even more for tuning. He, i wanna say is $375-400 and you get unlimited runs and time, on the dyno and he'll do tuning and anything else you want him to do to the motor while it's on the dyno. All you have to do it bring your own gas. Hell of a guy too.

IIRC theres a place called "shi" in polaris and i wanna say they had knee high boots with no heel when the woman and i went in there to get her a pair of boots.

I'd much rather have the 1650hp TT rx7 they put together.
