Welcome to the IHoP

TY Sean for the info on F1.

Oh, and technically the fastest, naturally aspirated car on earth still goes to an F1 car with a top speed of 263 mph iirc.

I'm not 100% sure I believe that.

A 2nd gen Camaro with a crate 572R went ~225 on gas and 252 on fuel.

...

Actually, the record for unblown gas is 365.

Unblown fuel is 378.

:Doh: reading too much stuff and typo's suck...

Was replying to the post about can an F1 car do 253 mph, and was watching youtube videos of "worlds fastest naturally aspirated cars"

I fuggin miss the HOP. Stupid work.

SAHWEEEEEET!!!

I was just shopping for a good deal on a QSC PLX3602 and Swooped on a miss-priced plx3102 for half the price of the 3602. I will pick it up from a store tonight.

Overal there will be a 25% loss of power, but I'm not too mad. I think it will power my 2 brand new sexy Mael-x's juuuuust fine.

My home theater is almost finished! After the flood in the basment the drama of the dousche bag room renter moving out and STILL remodeling the kitchen... It's good to see at least one project getting close to some form of a milestone. Of course then comes a permamnent PJ mount and to calibrate everything....

This summer will be crazy. Grading the yad. Fixing both of our concrete ponds, and tossing in 3-4 gardens and some shrubs. I won't have enough cash for a vacation after the wedding at this rate! Have to refinish my whole cabinet set up in the kitchen too. I've never had experience with wood working handy man type things, but I'll have to learn PDQ. That's how my life has been. I hope your lifes are going great too!

I hope all of you crazy folks are great. Sean you work too hard, but thats a good thing.. Mkader, you are finaly putting a lift on your truck? Much better. Finaly some proper upgrades!

=P

Hope to drop in some time soon. Ciao.

Sounds like things are coming together. Nice work :)

Have to show me the results.

I shall post them when I get more done. I never heard, how did the chromesome lottery turn out for you?

Mini-me is on the way

what is with everybody posting the DCR of the subs as if it's the nominal load? "I have dual .7 ohm coils......" no, you have dual 1 ohm. "My amp is seeing 1.4 ohms...." No, it's seeing at least 2. AC vs DC people.....

hmm, it's snowing. We have about an inch right now, maybe a bit more. This is wild. I was driving around with my windows down on wednesday and thursday, and by the forecast, will be doing it again by Tuesday of this week. Winter just had to get one last thrust in I guess.

lol...kimber stainless target II not fancy??? not fancy would be a springfield mil-spec, a charles daly, hell, even a taurus pt1911 has custom features...and kimber's customer service and warranty suck. trust me. while their guns are nice, very nice, even lowly kel-tec trumps their asses in CS and warranty.

look into a springfield, a smith and wesson, a sig arms, even the taurus. hell, build your own (i think that's my next big project), kimber's bullshit cs doesn't warrant someone dropping 1500+ on their ass.

i will never buy another kimber from a dealer, maybe used off someone. but never again will kimber see money from me for anything new.

wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :slayer:

Kansas weather can shove it. Mother nature is evil.

Read through the entire installation manual for the lift today. I'm pretty confident I will be able to handle it all, but I am going to need some helping hands. Also don't know how I'm going to work the gear situation.

Because the dif I am getting is already modified for the lift I'd rather use that then use mine and have to modify mine as well, but I can't put that in there and drive a 4.11 front/3.73 rear to the gear shop. I planned on physically taking the rear end and front dif to the shop to do the work, but they are only open on week days and I will be getting and doing the lift this weekend. etc, etc...

I'm thinking an option may be to install the lift then drop the rear drive shaft throw it in the back of the truck and then drive to the gear shop in 4wd. I saw a guy do this once before when he destroyed his rear driveshaft and then he drove a 4 hour trip back home at about 50MPH. Is that just too crazy???
