POS VETT

Welcome to the forum. I used to own two 1998 E36 M3s, a rather rare technoviolet sedan and a highly-common arktik silber coupe, both with a manual transmission. Post pictures of those BMWs.

Austin is still preoccupied with 1985 ...

Rife's on Westerville has done me wrong. Achbach has done mistakes that I noticed on a friend's. Auto Body Collision and Glass in Lewis Center has done mistakes too. None of the body shops I have dealt with had done a decent job. Just pick one, chances are you would be dealing with one mistake or another.

Congratulations, Aaron!

Northend Wrench is closer to New Albany than Lucore. If you could be without the car for a few days, drop it off at Northend Wrench, they will take a good care of it.

No biggie, it was my job at the time

I got a 29.4 or 29.5 on one run, two other runs in the high 29s. A certain Formula Ford set the bar high at 27.9 seconds. I think there was nobody in the 28s, it was a slaughter. Kudos to Sean (Crossle), good job piloting that old hag. The Continental ExtremeContact Wet tires tried their best, but at the end of morning session (6-7 runs), they became very hot. No chunking or anything detrimental, just a fast wear.

What size is your gf? Have you checked the inside of the helmet for an actual Snell certification sticker? Also, check with the hosting organization (is it UFO?) if Snell-certified helmet is actually a requirement for this event.

Excellent. So, how many convoys are planned and starting where and when?

Welcome to Columbus Racing!

Does the engine run when push-started?

I told you this before, you are not allowed to be quicker than me, even in the Formula Ford.

The other way around. The V has a sweet steering angle that will make a drift easy.

Typical Viper owner ...

Still below minimum number of participants?

Not an FEA geek ...

Far from potmetal, it's a typical appearance of brittle fracture of a carbon steel. The failure was initiated by fatigue cracking mechanism (the narrow, shinier, smoother band on the top outer, roughly from 9:00 to 3:00-4:00 clock position). Like most fatigue failures, there is an origin. However, without a microscopic-level investigation I wouldn't put down my money yet, but look at around 11:00 position. There is a dark sliver on the fracture surface which might indicate the origin. It might be a near-microscopic crack. So, the crack grew with each iteration of torque application through fatigue. The crack became longer and deeper and at one point, it let go at once. If I'm not mistaken, there is a sign of ductile fracture around the "peak" and probably extended all the way to 9:00 judging from the chevrons pointing to the peak. The inner portion is all brittle judging from the rough and jagged appearance. Half of you are probably snoring by now ...

Do you consume the harvest or do you enjoy the growing process?

Is there a convoy going from Columbus OH to Kil Kare?

Took you 8 years to learn about the mistake. Damn, son.

This thread leads me to revisit my previous daydream about a Pro-Touring vehicle built with Alston chassis, independent suspension with proper specs, a high(er)-revving GM LS7 with Magnum-spec T56 (or TR6060), deep-dish multi-piece wheels with sticky tires, sport seats, and a minimum package of creature comfort. The body of choice is still a pick up truck of a bygone era, earliest GM C10 in single cab and short bed configuration with patina or otherwise. Maybe one day, some day.

Welcome to the forum. What's the goal for the VW?
