Wind and Taco

There oughta be a conference with a panel of speakers, with all Tacoma owners, past, present, and future. The topic will be “what this object is, what it was meant for, and how to use it”

The basics will be covered, like the history, notable users, why metal things sink in water, and how wind works on various shapes.

There will be an interactive hands on demonstration on how to break the rice rocket habit and mod like a Tacoma owner.


It’s just time we got this shit hashed out in person.

snacks will be available in the form of an eating contest.

 

If you lowered the suspension, problem solved.

 

At what point will the AT vs MT Battle Royale occur? And can we keep our helmets on for the duration?

 

My helmet is court ordered, " For the safety of my self and others!" The judge said. I will have to leave mine on.

The battle royale will go as follows: The weapon is your transmission. Not disassembled, complete as if it was ready to install into you truck, transfer case is optional. Winners must install and drive over the loser's and their transmissions. This will be a group participation event, Manual vs. Automatic, no individuals.

The awards ceremony will start the event. This is TW. We don't do anything even half assed normal here!

 

It’s advised to keep helmets on at all times as rival gangs of Tacoma owners do not observe “time out” rules.

 

At 6pm the long bedders wage war against the short bedders in the carnation hall.

 

At 6:30 the TRD Sports will square off against the TRD OR.

SR, SR5, Limiteds and Pros can join.

 

Can we get a refresher course on complicated subjects such as high school physics? This post about wind blowing around tall, nearly flat objects has me baffled.

 

That will take place after the Skwuup challenge. You must collect objects with your hood scoop to win valuable prizes.

 

I don't have a scoop.

 

Try and drive up the Cajon Pass NB during extremely strong Santa Ana's !!!

Alot of flipped over Semi trucks on that pass today

 

Strap-on scoops available at check in for $15.

 

No bueno, my last encounter with a strap-on left 3 people dead.

 

that’s a nice truck. Should upgrade to 6112s. 5100s are great but 6112s are much improved. Will give you better dampening and control out on the road.

I have 5100s on the t4r and 6112/5160 on the taco.

 

@ LB gang @ AT gang

 

Ya, then a splinter group breaks off, starts assgrabbing each other and busting balls....sounds like any Toyota meet up I've ever been so lol

 

Them there 6112s...they more aero?

 

Back in my day we didn’t expect as much of our cars and Trucks as we do now. Used to be a AM radio no power seats or windows or A/C manual trans with manual steering and if you owned a 3/4 ton and towed a trailer it most likely was a 15 ft. Now we expect power everything and for it to fit people from 5.5 to 6.4 130 lbs to 265 lbs and tow our house and get 20mpg while doing it. And do 0-60 in 5 sec.
hey the so called muscle cars of the 60 era turned 14-15 sec. 1/4 mile times and now any good running V-6 turbo can turn that. I can find no real faults with my 19 TRD sport, power is good and so is the MPG and comfort. Just my observation.

 

All is not lost. There are still reasonable people carrying the torch for our common sense forefathers.
