  1. I don't get it. You build a car for drag - yet have traction issues from a roll. A drag car runs on drag tires, and races from a dig. If you are having traction issues from a roll, I'm sure you would have a worse time from a dig. I had always thought the cars that race from a roll had a better chance because of poor suspension issues. Not trying to bust anyones balls here. But, poor driving, and a slower car are to blame. Don't take it personal, as driving only gets better with expierence - and this is the first time you have been WOT since your new fuel system and tune. Get some more "street" time behind the wheel. Its alot different than the track. As for the slower car part - time and money is all you need. Both mustangs and the nissan were 6 speed cars vs your automatic - you should know better than to call them out from a roll. automatic cars were meant for dig races, manuals for roll racing. You'll learn with expierence, young grasshopper.

    Truckers

    First off, let me say - To hell with you all. I am not a trucker, nor am I related to any, or have any friends that are. Trucks are what makes America happen. If trucks didnt ship cargo, we'd be at a standstill. The post office, grociers, every walmart, kmart, fastfood place, gas station, dairy product, - just about every thing is transported by a semi. No way around it. And to think they do it as a career, getting a CDL isn't easy. 2 tickets in 2 years means unemployment. And most state troopers LOVE getting semis. Being on the road for weeks at a time, sleeping in your truck, showering at truck stops, eating like shit - all by yourself. Not the life for me, so I say let someone else do it without me bitching at all. Semis must FILL their trucks in every state they drive through. Must log every hour where they are, how many miles, ect - and og their sleep patterns. They are allowed to drive more than so many hours a day - which is good. I think the world is hard on truckers for the few of the fuckup truckers there are.

  19. If you had any idea what zach paid for the Red NSX thats been to the thrift store, you'd die. Put it this way, its a 4 figure number.
  20. Dear Diary, I never quite figured out why the sexual urges of men & women differ so much. And I never have figured out the whole Venus and Mars thing. I have never figured out why men think with their head and women with their heart. I have never figured out why the sexual desire gene gets thrown into a state of turmoil, when it hears the words "I do." One evening last week, my wife and I were getting into bed. Well, the passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says "I don't feel like it, I just want you to hold me." I said "WHAT????!!!" So she says the words that every husband on the planet dreads to hear..."You must not be in tune with my emotional needs as a woman." I am thinking "what was her first clue?" I finally realize that nothing was going to happen that night so I went to sleep. The very next day, we went shopping at a big, unnamed dept. store... I walked around with her while she tried on three different very expensive outfits. She couldn't decide which one to take so I told her to take all three. She wanted matching shoes, I said "let's get a pair for each outfit." We went to the jewelry dept. where she gets a pair of diamond earrings. Let me tell you .. she was so excited. She must have thought I was one wave short of a shipwreck. I started to think she was testing me because she asked for a tennis bracelet when she doesn't even know how to play tennis. I think I threw her for a loop when I said it was OK. She was almost sexually excited from all of this. You should have seen her face when she said "I think this is all dear, let's go to the cash register." I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out "No honey, I don't feel like buying all of this stuff now." You should have seen her face... it went completely blank. I then said "Really honey! I just want you to HOLD this stuff for a while." And just when she had this look like she was going to kill me I added, "You must not be in tune with my financial needs as a man." I figure that I won't be having sex again until sometime after the spring of 2008.
  21. Yes, auto start trees have that feature. Hopefully you are in an automatic, and have double bulbed me. I am gonna let you stand on that converter as long as possible before I get into the beams. Converter = Heat, Heat = burnt trans.
  22. Cleaning the garage i found a autometer volts gauge. It looks new, and has all hardware. It has a black face. Its a Z-series, 8-18 volts, Part #2645. Retail for 34.95 $20, obo http://www.jegs.com/photos/1052645.jpg
  23. Jacket is money, I have it in Blue.
  24. Yes, very inaccurate. My old gixxer 600 read 186 before, we all know thats not right. I have a GPS locator that you can carry and will tell you your exact speed.
  25. #1 - Double Bulbing. I hate when in a bracket race I'm double bulbed by my opponent. Its not nice, and I'll back you out. Double bulbing is when you do your burnout, pull up and light both staging lights before your opponent hasn't even prestaged. On an Autostart tree, as soon as the second guy is staged the tree starts. Doesnt give much time to get the transbrake/rpm ect where they need to be. Don't be that guy!!! Also, the track i was at had people staged and cars 10 feet behind them ready to run. Sure, it makes for a fast round, but when a transbrake fails it would be ugly. enough ranting
