Hello SSA folks.

[vladd 26]

here's a pic of one of the bees that's been killing me. if someone could crop it that'd be awesome.

[jntar 15]

Damn you guys...you're making me hungry now.

[Godsmack 361]

[///M5 2,833]

Drive on over.

[vladd 26]

and here you go sean...this is what you do not want to see on your oil pickup....

this is what the crank looks like, we actually removed one of the bearings before i took this pic, the other half is still on the crank (they slid on top of one another...

[Acidburn 10]

Send me some Tom. I've never had it man!!!!

[Acidburn 10]

that does not look good Matt...

[vladd 26]

i've never seen them before here, so i had no idea

[vladd 26]

that does not look good Matt...

yea thank god thats the 2.8 and not the 3.8

[///M5 2,833]

"spun" is a bit of an understatement.

[///M5 2,833]

never seen the red wasps before either.

[deerhunt1988 0]

guess red wasps are a southern thing

[vladd 26]

you all can keep the damn red wasps, they're so aggressive is what gets me. The guy beside us keeps honey bees and I haven't even seen one of those yet (they are less than 20' from the fiero) but these damn wasps continue to fudge with us even after the nests are gone.

btw, i threw pics of the spectrum up in the pixtures thread

[jntar 15]

Red wasps aka paper wasps are a PITA I swear. We have so damn many of them in texas its awful. They can sting you over and over just for fun. Not a typical bee that dies after it stings you. Your best bet is a good can or wasp or hornet spray that has a 20-30 ft. reach. There is a wasp nest somewhere...kill it and they will die.

[jntar 15]

I hate these puckers...

[vladd 26]

yep those are real common here and even in the same hives as the red ones, and i knew those were paper wasps, no idea the red ones were too though

[///M5 2,833]

we don't have them, and I am not unhappy about it at all.

[Adrian_D 520]

damn, that was a lot of catching up to do for 3 days

[Adrian_D 520]

i killed yesterday 4 f'ing big wasps. never seen anything that big

[Adrian_D 520]

mmm, sand blaster. Another toy I "need"

those things should be noice
