  1. TV is gone, thanks Smokin5s for quick sale. MODS please close this.
  2. Some players dont play burnt discs, or they will skip/freeze/etc. The only way to tell is try diff. discs in your player.
  3. I want it gone, so whoever can show first. PM for phone#. *EDIT: Josh has plans set up for friday. I will keep you updated if that falls through sam.
  4. Stop using the drive NOW. There are many recovery programs to try, but they are a 50/50 shot at best. The smaller the file, the better chance of recovery.
  5. Nice job Zemke... Damn good race :woowoo: That utah track is nice.
  6. i always use bandwidthplace.com.
  7. If your knee is hitting the ground, I would highly recommend steppinng up to a better tire.
  8. If you can visually see that the prop is bent, I would say that is more than enough to cause the condition. They have pretty low tolerances. The pump is essentially the assembly that houses the impeller. It is sealed to the hull of the boat. If you caught a rope, and the seal was already weak, it could have tweaked that bond. There could also still be debris in the pump housing or intake causing the problem. In addition to the pitch of the impeller, they also have different designs, some geared more for speed than hookup. I am not sure, but you MIGHT be able to swap the impellers without actually pulling the pump. If that is the case, you could always switch sides, to see if the problem stays with the impeller or is a pump issue. Cavitation is just an excess of air traveling through the pump... Another thought is the intake. If it is not feeding your pump with solid water, that could cause this problem. Perhaps new intake "scoop" style grates would help your issue, especially if it is just you in the boat and you are heavy. (ie. the opposite side jet from the side you sit on is the problem). If you turn the boat in both directions while accellerating does the issue remain? ALSO, if you are cavitating bad, keep an eye on your temp. gauges. You are probably fine since you have two jets, but sucking air can be devastating to your cooling. (obviously)
  9. Sounds like you are cavitating. Is the impeller physically damaged at all on the edges? That can cause the condition you are describing. Another common source is leaking around the pump housing. That would be the gasket you mentioned. Make sure the pump gets sealed properly when you re-install it.
  10. just think of the pitch like gearing. I would try to find some owners of the same boat online to see what impellers work best for that particular machine. *And hope it is just the impeller that is stripped...
  11. fill that mailbox with cement.
  12. I think you missed my point. You seriously think a vespa could hang in superbike? Mladini, Spies, teamates, suzuki, my point was you put good riders on any bike and they will do well. Plus, I dont exactly consider a couple hundredths of a second manhandling. Maybe Yami decided they would rather focus on the real shit. Where are the zooks in GP?
  13. fram = shit. Sure it will work, but so will Kroger brand pop-tarts. I use junk filters on my car occasionally, but I dont rev my car to 15K RPM either. I usually go with a Mobil1 or K&N. However, I doubt you will ever hear of anyone blowing their motor due to a cheap filter. Main thing in oil is you want to avoid oils with friction modifiers, AKA "energy conserving." No motorcycle oils will contain these. They are said to promote clutch slippage in wet applications, though I cannot vouch for the validity of that belief. The weight is always a controversial subject, but you cannot go wrong with what the manual recommends. *whatever you choose, keep it clean and change it as recommended. That is most important.
  14. can you ping www.google.com? If you have an IP and you are getting replies, It sounds like the nic is connected. Open IE... click tools....internet options... connections tab... "setup" use the wizard to add a connection. Never dial, broadband connection, etc. If you unplug the network cable while the PC is on the desktop, does anything happen at all? When you plug it back in?
  15. personal preference: Yamaha. You could put Mladin on a Vespa and he would still dominate the superbike circuit.
  16. Those seem like they would be cool, but I would rather put the money towards an actual skydive. Its kinda like playing a racing video game or actually racing. I know 1800skyride.com has some locations with the simulators, I dont know which specific locations. Call to find out.
  17. It sucks, when you try to keep your car nice, stored indoors and hardly driven, it falls apart. Really I think it ages faster not being driven.
  18. A couple of years ago, two of my white "girl friends," ~21 at the time, went to a 50 Cent/Eminem concert in detroit by themselves. I have never been there, but I thought they were nuts.
  19. Brand new, Never powered on. Dell Dimension B110 w/ XP Home 2.53Ghz 256Mb DDR 48X CD-RW/DVD-ROM 80GB 7200 rpm hdd 56K modem $250
  20. dainese is top of the line. If they stand behind the product, I definitely think it has potential. I would definitely wear one, its a great idea. Here is a similar concept, I tend to like the tether idea. (until you forget to unhook it when you dismount) http://money.cnn.com/2006/04/24/magazines/business2/softeningcrashlanding/index.htm
  21. Granted red river gorge is in KY, but its only 2 hours past Cinci. Thats still close to home in my book.
  22. google red river gorge. They have designated campgrounds/hostels around if you want to go that route, or you can just drive into the forest, park in one of many little gravel "lots", hike to your spot and do your thing. There are some great scenic views there as well, some of which you have to drive to. I dont know if the park is "dog friendly" or not. A couple people die there each year by slipping and falling over an edge, so you would probably want them on a leash.
