    No.
    Plus higher the ratio the more strain on everything. Plus all depends on how close to bottoming the springs are too.

    Thanks don't want bent pushrods !!!!


    Did read about this years SCORE Baja 1000 race , the race officials have finally caved to all Nannys trying to ruin Motorsports . Starting at this race they've initiated 35mph speed control sections

    This due to the numerous accidents between spectators and race trucks . This year's race had 100 of the speed control areas . Each truck had a GPS sensor installed to monitor speed limits . If a truck violated these speed sections the team was penalized in overall time

    This video shows an onboard view and the first 30 min is speed controlled to 35mph . There is a point in the video that they're running 122mph !! But watching a 850hp Trophy truck running 35mph is hard to watch

    We just got back from the "parade of lights" downtown. 2 hours of lighted vehicles and highschool bands from the community. It's pretty cool. This is only the 2nd time in 6 years we went. Probably should do it more.

    Morning all. Headed to the Big Man's house this morning. Lots to give thanks for! Then take my Amanda to breakfast some where. Hoping to relax after that. Knee barking fairly good from all the tramping in the woods the last two weeks. Shot not working this time. Have a great Sunday!

    Back to work Tuesday.
    It's getting more difficult going back after having pretty much a month vacation.
    Think I'll do a sit in the tree tomorrow with the bow.
