    Looking via smartphone now. I can see them all. Looks especially good with the slash body. Is that a motorcycle superstore sticker? I covered my Stock body with those after I painted it.

    If that guy swung a golf club at me, he would be paying for some doctor bills and then some. Practical joke or not, you don't assault someone. Caught on camera, I would have thrown the book at him.

    First, it was prolly all bullshit, notice, the guy running backwards, still filming, pretty well I might add. Second, if he's playing golf, he at least knows, or is a attorney, third, your skull would be caved in, and YOU wouldn't be doing shit, well, maybe in your pants. The kids were most likely trespassing, and provoked the situation. Again, old fuckers, take there golf seriously.

    I think I'm gonna start prepping the Jato for the new transmission today. Anyone have tips on how to really clean everything up like new? And how the eff do I get it to run without randomly stalling? Espcially when it gets turned over?

    What's the advantage of longer fuel lines? The fuel line on it is a good bit longer than necessary, methinks.

    Hahaha, no. I got a great deal on a Jato a while back. The tranny self-destructed or something crazy like that and instead of piecing together a new one I just bought the whole assembly of ebay for 40 bucks.

    By running a longer fuel line on a nitro car it increases the volume of fuel out of the tank already flowing to the engine. So if the pick-up isn't getting gas in the tank, for instance when the car is upside down, then you have more fuel already headed to the engine giving you more time before it stalls.
