Lucky, I wish I could save miles on my truck

 

@Aw9d yeah I guess generally traffic just sucks ass

 

Beats the hell out of Monday traffic.

 

So I see Tucson has there own meets but I hate driving that far... Especially living in North Phoenix. With that being said anybody on this side of town wanna do a meet next Saturday night at Angry Crab Shack?

 

I get home way faster on Monday then Fridays, everyone goes north to get out of town and I'm just stuck in the middle of it

 

Where in North Phoenix? I’m up near Anthem

 

I'm not the far but I'm off the I-17 and cactus

 

Anyone going to Luke Days in a few weeks? Haven't been there in a few years but they are having the Blue Angels this year, definitely want to try and make it one of the days

I'm plan on going. I haven't seen the Blue Angel since I was a kid.

 

I used to live like 5 miles from an air base growing up, coolest thing sitting in the back yard watching the air shows. Then I went on a TW trip to Superstition with Juan a few years ago and had like a 8am wake up call from low flying airplanes, walk out of the tent to see the Blue Angels practicing above us, that was pretty awesome. Always been fascinated with airplanes in general

 

I remember that was hell, and parking was about a mile hike. That would be awesome, I'll let you know

 

The Tora Tora Tora display is pretty interesting. It's a shame the Japanese threw so many of their worthy airframes at Kamikaze attacks late war, there's very few genuine examples anymore. My understanding is the whole Japanese squadron for that display is basically Texans with body kits on them.

There is one Zero still airworthy with its original 14-cylinder engine, but not part of that show. I bet that thing is a hoot to hear! I love jets, but piston aircraft just... they tickle some very primal part of my brain roaring by on low flybys.

Yeah, that's why I wasn't gonna go.

Man Overland West is coming up too, all the cool stuff is happening! I'm definitely going to be back, I'm going to bring sunscreen this time hahaha. Probably just one day though, Friday or Saturday.

 

If you go beyond tube work and expanded steel it will never function...

 

TFTI.

 

Any time brother

 

How are people routing their switch pros wires though the firewall?

I see that meaty looking grommet that has the hood cable and a thick wire bundle but they both seem sealed up pretty good. There's a capped off nipple looking thing though on the engine side, is that something that opens up?

All I gotta do is get the switch pros head unit cable through (4 wires and a connector) and then it's just a single blue wire to tap into a switched 12v.

 

Anybody have luck with these . I need to do my brakes and probably need new rotors. I might as well go big.

Instructional wiring videos that I've watched have shown just that.

Skip to 15:30 (on mobile, youtube wouldnt let me link right to it). I think the principle should still be the same to wiring lighting. (Inner drunken Scotsman says: "They'r all jus' fookin' wyres matey")

 

Booooo that's bullshit... something that brought competitors over to gawk like that should be top of the heap.

But yeah I would love to see that in person. It's a piece of work that's for damn sure!
