kenny

One of the more impressive cars there. I totally didn't expect it to almost be on the bumper that pass. Then dropping .3 each pass after... well played sir, well played.

A better example would be a LC2 (and not just because I'm into them). The biggest weak point on a LC2 has always been the two bolt mains. Before girdles were available it was unheard of to run high 10s in even a light weight car (by light, I mean around 3200lbs). Today it is common to see a TSM car (3400lbs minimum, stock block, full interior "street car") deep into the 9s. Without a girdle every single 9 second TSM car would join the DOTC (drove over the crank) club - probably on the very first pass. I'll give you a dollar to find me a low 9 second TSM car going that fast without a girdle. Hell, TSM will probably be in the 8s before the season is over. The record just dropped to a 9.10, and another car with a brand new combo just went 9.20 off the trailer. Between those two cars, one will be in the 8s very shortly. If you told anyone in the Buick game that five years ago you would have been laughed at. So no, girdles aren't a marketing gimmick.

You said girdles were a marketing gimmick. They're designed to keep a bottom end together... not keep a block from splitting. Saying a girdle is worthless because a 5.0 liter still splits is like saying you don't like Ice Cream because Taco Bell sells hot sauce. It has nothing to do with anything.

If he's never wrong, I'm the second coming of Christ.

Obviously a flawless idea.

I'll get right on that.

The weak point of a 5.0 liter isn't the bottom end...

hahahahahah

So you've been shot?

You can bring me beer at lunch. Food optional.

Family Guy is just a bunch of random stupid events that make no sense, then some random flash back. Rinse, repeat. There are very few parts that are actually funny.

This is why I always carry when handling a decent amount of cash.

Your just mad my Buick runs better than yours even with crankwalk.

Family Guy sucks.

I have no idea, but I have a guess.

I really gotta buy motard wheels for my KX.

Holy crap that is a good price.

Oh shit, didn't read that. That sucks.
