Grapefruit Sculpin is good, not great, in my honest opinion.

 

Still hard to beat the normal Sculpin

Didn't get to try the Grapefruit as I'm waiting to have it on tap. Couple of people had it from a bottle, and lofty liquid accolades were heaped by all. It takes a village.

Per the owner this afternoon over a Lost Coast Tangerine Wheat, all lines are cleaned by an outside company every 14 days.

They had bottles of Grapefruit Sculpin, keg wasn't cold yet.

Legit question, do they clean their tap lines as they rotate? I've found this to be a common problem for restaurants that constantly rotate beers, they don't properly clean the lines and shit gets naaaaasty.

 

For instance I know 101 Beer Kitchen cleans their shit, there's been a few times I couldn't get what I wanted cuz they were cleaning.

I'll ask that question next time I'm in. They're getting some Grapefruit Sculpin in, and I want to try that. Been a Sculpin fan for years.

Place is called Hopyard 62. I stopped in for the first time yesterday and had a couple of beers talking with the co-owner Greg, who seems like a really nice guy who knows his beer.

Place has 21 taps in frequent rotation, with a focus on Ohio beers. Good selection of styles. The owner of Grandpop's Hops was giving a talk on his efforts to revive the hop growing agricultural base of Ohio.

They have some patio seating out front, but it was too damn hot to sip Pilsner while observing my fellow talking monkeys.

If you're local and enjoy good beer, it's worth stopping in. http://www.hopyard62.com

Lucky for you you got to see my taillights alot today....lol just busting your balls

You're supposed to keep your eyes open during the pass? Why was I not informed of this?

13.46. Stalled the car at the line. Twice. Luckily for me, I have no concept of shame.

First time at a track, had a really great time. Loved it.

I'm calling out my brother mopar against mopar. My only chance is he stalls it or miss a shift

Your tune today at DTM will help, but I'm still predicting at least one non-Special Education-sized bus.

So am I to understand that this track day is not dedicated to "members only"? I have currently had many beers so bear with me here. I assumed that it was just for members but can non-members also run if they want and just pay at the gate? I may be able to wrangle up a few.

I would love to see your Mustang make a pass.

My car puts down 436-434, which is by far the most powerful automobile I've driven. I'm going to have it tuned at DTM and be done. Hopefully come in at 450rwhp.

It's a subjective thing involving a lot of variables. For me, 436 in a standard transmission car feels pretty strong, but I'm not a race car driver, amateur or otherwise. Seen plenty of cars put over 500 to the wheels and the owner will say the car has great street manners. I guess it boils down to your skill level and comfort level. Recently saw a ZL1 Camaro put 613 down, pre-tune. That's impressive, and quite frankly too much car for me personally.

Before anyone posts a picture of RMS TITANIC, yes, I'm aware the Challenger platform is a large one. Even so, 450 for a car that gets driven on trips, etc. feels about right to me. A better driver, or at least a more aggressive one, might require more out of a DD. Takes a village.

I'm calling out my brother mopar against mopar. My only chance is he stalls it or miss a shift.

Agreed. That's your only chance. Either way a Mopar wins, and that just feels right, you know?

Should link to the YouTube of the baseline pull.

Bro you will never see the stripes only the taillights.

345 vs. 392. Just saying.

Just watched the video of the pull Brian uploaded to YouTube, and I shorted the car on torque. Actual numbers were 436/434.

So I got that going for me, which is nice.

Search 2015 SRT Scat Pack dyno for the video, btw.

Going to be at the rental?

Yeah, my brother and I both purchased tickets to take our cars down the track.

They are supposed to be 475 at the flywheel aren't they? 15% loss says 512ish

10% loss says 485. I'd say it makes what they claim and a little more

Per Dodge, stock numbers are 485/475. Pulls hard as Hell.

Nice

First Scat Pack on that Dyno. Virgin territory, baby.

For a stock baseline, I was very happy wirh those numbers. We're going over tuning solutions, should be interesting to see what Brian can get out of the 6.4.

Got the car up on the dyno today at Dynotune Motorsports.

436/434

That's awesome, I was working a little ways away from it and couldn't take my eyes off it.

Yeah, I think Sublime Green is one of those things in life one either loves or hates. Like mushrooms on pizza.

If it will stop raining long enough for me to put some miles on it, I really want to know what it puts down to the wheels. In the little time I have spent driving, the reaction from the public borders on incredulous. A cop almost rear-ended someone checking the car out at a red light.

Already put over 50 miles on mine in a day! She sure is a thirsty bitch, and God dam it pulls like a train! My biggest gripe, why the hell did they put pizza cutter tires on it? Seriously, 245's all the way around with 485hp/475tq. Will a 295 fit on the Alcoa wheels?

Reading a Scat Pack forum and it seems a lot of people are running 275/40.
