  1. great job of making far more out of my comment than what was originally there. i totally said "yes, his bitch ass should have gotten right up after that love tap":gtfo: yea, camera angles and stuff. it's just odd seeing scott murray get right up from like 4 or 5 double backflip crashes(a few looked pretty bad too). ehh, he probably just got his head jarred pretty good and the wind knocked out of him since he was walking around a few minutes later. these judges have been sucking for the last few years. like the announcers were saying, they have never gave the 360 much credit as far as points go even though it's one of the toughest/more dangerous tricks to do. and tossing an indian air in there too, damn!
  2. wow. what an absolutely rip off. loza rules, and that trick is absolutely crazy, but bilko totally had this wrapped up with the indian air 360.
  3. kinda surprised that he was laying there like he was. that was definitely a solid hit, but there have been guys that got right up after worse. hopefully we see him back. kyle fricken loza man, can not wait to see what he's up to this year! hopefully we see him hit it this run. scott murray man, been waiting for him to land the double back for 3 years now, and hopefully he gets it on his second run. just plain cool to see someone no one from no where throwing huge tricks!
  4. wow man, motoX is gonna be absoloutley insane tonight! not just because of the 720 back attempt, but evidentally a LOT of new huge tricks!
  5. BMX big air still going on, anthony napolitan straight stomping a double front flip over the gap!!!
  6. yep, travis pastranas going for a 720 backflip on a dirtbike in best trick tonight! right now it's BMX big air, MX best trick is up next! ESPN, 206 for direcTV.
  7. i'm not getting defensive about anything, just stating facts. i'm certainly not a fanboy of either(gimme a koenigsegg CCX, or pagani zonda R clubsport!), though definatly a fan of both. i mean, i'm sorry if it came off that way because someone referenced not only a wikipeida article, but a wikipedia article that doesn't even follow wikipedias own guidelines. BTW, your making baseless assumptions without having driven either car, let alone even seeing either one.
  8. LMAO! dude, none of that is even cited! it's just a bunch of butt hurt veyron fans spewing their bullshit opinions everywhere(it was on the veyron page too, lack of sources and all). i mean, all of that is absoloute bullshit by wikipedias article standards(original research, opinions, uncited statements not allowed). BTW, obviously unknown to the butt hurt fanboys, the ultimate aero WAS GPS tracked, and by guinness too. further more, the veyron is STILL not the fastest production car in the world since it has yet to make the back to back runs in opposite directions(i think i excluded that part earlier, mah bad). the runs are made in opposite directions to account for possible slopage of the road, head or tail wind, etc. dude, i'm really not sure what to tell you(or the butt hurt fanboys). the mclaren F1, which was once the fastest production car in the world, achieved its speed with a tune that removed the rev limiter and also non-factory tires, yet it was never questioned. the koenigsegg CCR was officially recorded in nardo, italy, by the guinness crew, following standard speed record regulations(that are used by both FIA and SCTA, the 2 largest timing organizations in the world), and it was never questioned. the bugatti veyron didn't even follow standard testing regulations, yet it was never questioned("oh, but we have video of it going a certain speed only 1 way!!!"). but, all of a sudden the SSC ultimate aero TT is questioned??? i mean, it's obvious that it's because they are a small time american manufacturer. is it still the 'muscle car' stigma or something??? this is outright rediculous! if guinness was good enough for the koenigsegg CCR speed, then they are good enough for the SSC ultimate aero TTs speed! i mean, really, if the guinness crew aren't 'credible' enough(they are only the largest world record keeping organization in the world), then who the fuck is??? edit to add the most proof you'll get, short of riding shotgun... the telemetry data was gathered by a dewetron GPS data aquisition system. note that this is the SAME GPS LOGGER used by top gear in their bugatti veyron top speed video.
  9. and it could be argued that it's going 253MPH with a strong tail wind. besides, your quoting car & driver for crying out loud! all of the standard auto mags pack their articles full of BS. the SSC ultimate aero record run was recorded and confirmed in both directions by the guinness record organizations. the guinness dudes were also on hand to record and confirm the koenigsegg CCR runs in nardo, italy too. is it not unreasonable for a run in 2 directions within 1 hour of each being required? it makes perfect sense, and is standard for ALL speed record organizations. it's such a simple requirement to meet that it's pretty damn odd that bugatti chose not to comply. then again, everything surrounding this car has been fishy, including the extremely limited reviews(no publishing of performance numbers besides straight line allowed) and track tests(it took years before they actually allowed top gear to run it on their track).
  10. the veyron was never the fastest car in the world because no one has ever ran one back to back in both directions like the rules require. it was officially the koenigsegg CCX(or CCR maybe, one of those) at ~245MPH or so, then SSC took over from there. they havn't found the right stretch of pavement yet. the car was still pulling when they shut down on their record runs. link? would love to read about that! ...says the dude who owns one of the most hideous vehicles ever penned! i love the 300s, but DAMN are they ugly!!!
  11. to answer the 3 wheeler question, yes, all 3 wheelers are considered a motorcycle in the state of ohio. with them getting much more popular though, and more car like 3 wheeled vehicles being developed every day(so they are techinically a motorcycle and don't have to meet crash standards and the like), states are beginning to catch on and are changing their laws to reflect this. and, yes, i TOTALLY dream of building a complete tube chassis vehicle(would love to build a tube chassis reverse trike, with tilting front wheels for more motorcycle-like handling).
  12. steve is definatly right. i mean, atleast the athiests that do the public debates with the christians(unfortunatly, our most ignorant ones seem to be the most vocal) actually understand, not only christianity but, the abrahamic religions as well as the other religions through out the world, instead of basing their points on ignorant misconceptions. take the plane crash survivor schpiel, what does that have to do with any thing? death and suffering are as much a part of the given free will as life and happiness. there is a reason that this sort of thing is never brought up in those debates; it's ignorant and would be swatted down without issue by the other side(that whole 'free will' thing). you can toss george carlins "i prayed to god, then i prayed to the moon" thing in there too. i mean, those athiests get much more respect since they actually know and understand the religions that they are denying, they actually did some research before they came to their conclusion instead of just saying "ehh, i'm not feeling the whole spiritual thingy, so there must not be a god". besides, it's not our job to do your research for you, so i don't see why steve should 'enlighten' you. it's your job to make sure your decision is informed(though i really couldn't care less if it is or not).
  13. here is what jared at lethal performance(the sponsor that's written across either his balls or his ass, barnett is really into 'stangs) had to say after talking to him...
  14. turns out i'm not a guitarist, they i can make some nice noise with drums, so i'm selling my guitar and amp for a drum kit. if your interested, we can set up a 'test drive', or my friend, who is a hell of a guitarist, can demo the set up for you. this set up is PERFECT for a beginner, or for someone who needs something to practice with(though believe me, the guitar is gig worthy!!!). it's an agile valkyrie III, little known brand, but VERY good quality. this brand, hands down, blows away all epiphone(gibson entry level) and squier(fender entry level) that are even close in price! i bought it(~$270 + shipping from http://www.rondomusic.com/ who has EXCELLENT customer service BTW) based on all of the great reviews i've read on the net(google it, all positive!)... http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Guitar/product/Agile/Valkyrie+III/10/1 2 humbucker pickups, 3 way switch, 2 tone and 2 volume knobs, one each for each pickup. it's only had a few hours of playing time, so it is still brand new, no scratches or scuffs... http://upurs.us/image/6817.jpeg http://upurs.us/image/6818.jpeg http://upurs.us/image/6819.jpeg http://upurs.us/image/6820.jpeg the amp is a park G10R. again, little known brand, but it's a subdivision of marshall(from what i understand, every few years they gather up some left over marshall pieces and assemble them under the name 'park' or something like that, info is scarce). also bought(ebay, ~$40 + shipping) based on the great reviews i read... http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Guitar+Amp/product/Park/G10R/10/1 certainly not powerful enough for gig use, but it's a great practice amp. it has a little wear and tear since it was made in the early-mid 90's, and it crackles some when turning up the volume, but it's a rock solid practice amp and has a great rep for reliability... http://upurs.us/image/6822.jpeg http://upurs.us/image/6823.jpeg http://upurs.us/image/6824.jpeg http://upurs.us/image/6825.jpeg also, a QT-15 QWIK TUNE tuner. from the people i've talked to, it's really the only one worth buying under $15(bought it for $10 + shipping from amazon)... http://upurs.us/image/6821.jpeg i'm selling at $300 firm. willing to trade + $ for a complete drum set that isn't too beat up(atleast a 3 piece, shells, skins, hardware, hi-hat, ride, preferably atleast 1 crash) with the 6ft cable i bought seperatly, i've spent around $350 on this whole set up. i'm also tossing in these cheap ass, poor quality sony over ear headphones too. i just found them in my house one day, they are pretty crappy, but they have the big plug to plug into the amp so you or your kid won't annoy everyone in the house.
  15. well, i guess we're just gonna have to agree to disagree then. while i completely understand what your saying, i believe that by some moral stand point the way the red light cams are set up and operated is wrong. in the end, yea, life isn't fair. that won't stop me from bitching about it though, lol.
  16. alright, i totally skimmed your previous post and was looking for a good excuse to use that specific smily(i mean, c'mon!!!). i will say though that your pretty naive(or pretending to be atleast) saying that the length of the yellow doesn't make a difference. i mean, it's pretty much a bait & switch of sorts. my quick search hasn't shown any actual laws in the US regarding yellow lights, but evidentally it's 'accepted' that a light should be long enough to allow a vehicle at the legal speed limit to slow to a stop without drama or make it into the intersection before a light change. so when people have lived in an area for years, and red light cams are installed with the duration of yellows shortened, the people are being tricked into running a red. unless the yellows were ungodly long before or something(not like that exists, lol). and nevermind the studies have proven that red light cams cause more accidents(rearends) than before they were installed. yes, this wouldn't happen if everyone was paying attention and obeyed every law to the fullest(I.E., a perfect world), but that doesn't change the stats. you can't make a legitimate case that it isn't about money, can you??? no hostility here, if it seems like it, just lookin' for a good time waster, lol. and i SO don't believe that you stop at yellows!!!!
  17. your completely right. that's why they shorten the length of yellow lights when they add redlight cameras. what the hell is wrong with me? the gubment has always been there to serve the people, and not some completely different agenda:jerkit:
  18. dude, you would fit into the government PERFECTLY! take everyones hard earned money, any way you can get it!!!
  19. wow, i certainly don't claim to be an expert of speeding tickets, but i've never heard of that happening. i guess that's a california judge for you though.
  20. i have a mint '93 geo tracker that would polish up real nice!!!
  21. did you actually go to court? because you could have beaten that EASY.
  22. a koenigsegg still holds the record at 242MPH. it happened in texas during the 2003 gumball 3000. either way, this is still bragging rights over the 3rd place guy!
  23. aha, the audi 5000 was so shitty that the makers of robocop chose the taurus to use in the movie instead!
