Oregon and Washington BS thread

I call BS on that. Formula 1 cars do a 1.9 and Car & Driver did a Bugatti Veyron at 2.4s. You want to tell me a Ford hatch on street tires is going to beat something that has a sole purpose for racing with much deeper pockets than a shoe company?

 

Was at the zoo today..saw this couple taking a self portrait picture with a DSLR camera and it had a FLIP OUT LCD screen!! Shit makes me want to sell my Rebel and get one Makes taking self portraits easier with my daughter as I hate asking strangers.

Pretty cool IMO

 

That's what I was thinking, but those Fiestas are light as hell, especially with all the unnecessary parts stripped out, plus whatever insane performance modifications as well. I'd have to see it to believe it.

 

Man this guys is everywhere

 

I don't know who that is....





DON'T KILL ME

 

I think he is in England right now , but Germany is up for next weekend

 

Oh balls

 

Thanks! I'll probably start a build thread on TTORA after I get some good pics to show what I'm starting with.

Get it running...

The to-do list:
Install drive shafts
Install radiator
Re-do the flatbed
Weld in shock towers
Install shocks
Needs new paint
Needs brake lines on the front axle
Needs a new fuel line

But...it only ran a couple grand and I got 5 38.5" TSL boggers with only one trip on them. 5.29 gears and high steer. 4 brand new 14" Bilsteins. Straight sheet metal and a really good interior. Spare drive lines. Some wheel spacers and a u-bolt flip kit. Rear is welded and the front has a true trac.

 

Sorry, I was referring to Mr. T...OZ-T

EDIT: I don't know who the hell he is either Derek

 

Paint? Paint looks awesome! Looks like olive drab, unless if it's just the lighting in the picture. Man..lots of work to do still I see.

 

It's my main man , Ferrari F1 driver and current F1 championship points leader Fernando Alonso

 

Ah ok, I've heard of that guy.

 

Sounds like a fun project.

 

horse hockey

 

Not so much under good light and up close. Its a rattle can job that's coming off. Not bad yet, but it'll need to be redone.

I hope that's what I'm saying in a week or two lol

 

Nice, sir. Wish I still had my top hat, I have a desire to ride passenger and ask people for mustard.

Is there something up with the driver rear tire? Looks a bit off?

Wish I still remembered that stuff. I went through multivariable/vector/diff eq, but it's long gone.
About the only upper level math I can still do is marginal amounts of discrete mathematics such as finite state machines. I also love me some Karnaugh maps

 

Well...he was working on it the other day and had that tire under the truck. It ended up coming off the jack-stands and luckily the tire caught the truck instead of his chest. However, there are a couple nice gashes in that tire. Good thing it came with a full size spare and got the price knocked down a bit. I'll put an inner-tube in that tire and use it as a spare. It'll be good enough to get me out of a trail.
