    Jimacuda passed away Sept 30th

    Hey parts vendors, how about INCLUDING A DECENT SET OF INSTRUCTIONS in with the products you sell?

    There is a reason I call them De-structions Can't tell you the number of products I sold that came back FUBAR'd with the instruction still neatly folded in the sealed plastic bag they came in from the factory! The best part was the part was broken in an EXACT fashion that the de-struction...

    hate to bring up a sore subject but

    Same thing happened with the 7.3 PSD injector cup kit. Someone made one up, rent was the cost of the set up, $375 and you got your "rent" back minus $25 upon return. Then someone got it on a sob story without paying for it and kept it. The guy that made it said F it... not doing another...

    Unpopular opinion. I'm so frustrated I hate car shows/cruises.

    Yep The best one was the random kid in the front seat of a car eating an ice cream sandwich, mom standing next to car with a stroller, that someone else owned. Not a fan of the 50's music, but it's OK. Just keep it mellow enough that people can enjoy without being overwhelmed. The people...

    Stock Market

    @inertia I really like Josh Brown. He has a youtube thing called the compound, IIRC. They have some obscure heavy hitters on. This is for anybody reading... I can't stand financial advisors where most don't equal the market return after fees. Most aren't worth a penny. Why would you pay...

    It Never Rains In Southern California...Not True This Weekend!

    Turbo Action 17156 on a mild 340 street Duster?. Help

    Missed the 904 in first post. 727's can explode. Unless you can spin a 904 to about 8500+, they aren't going to let go. Still try to stick with 2nd gear, regardless.

    Turbo Action 17156 on a mild 340 street Duster?. Help

    what transmission? 727or 904? 904 not a big deal. With either if you happen to start a burnout in first go right to second when the tires start spinning.

    2023 14th Annual FABO NASCAR "Pick 'Em" Game - Here We Go Again!!!

    jeffy and jimmie gave out plenty of shots over the years. Jimmie benefited from the stupid chase format and Knaus being a really smart. Elliot and Mark Martin were typically super clean racers. Martin would have won multiple championships if he chrome horned people like Sr.

    Sounds like no more VT auto titles

    It used to be Alabama or Mississippi, then VT. Not surprised that they are cracking down on this.

    ? For those who have recently bought or sold a vehicle

    Go to the bank the person has funds in. Open a bank account and swap it right there in the bank to your account. Never step foot outside the bank with cash. Do a transfer to your regular account when you choose. Wire transfer is great too. There is a ton of fraud with cashiers checks unless...

    Indy Car Brake Loss after 180-mph straightaway...

    better that outcome than head on into that tire barrier with very little speed scrubbed off. Glad he is OK, viscous crash. Kill switch would do no good there. By the time you realize you have no brakes and get the switch, you are WAY beyond the point of no return and off track.

    Indy 500 wheel over the fence.

    It's been a while since a tire went in the stands and the results are never good. Lucky it missed for sure. Agreed, 50 feet earlier or later on the track and that is a bad scene. Into the stands or the trackside suites. IIRC, they mentioned where the tire landed around the same time as the...

    Wi-Fi device detection

    This is no different than the peeping tom cameras placed in homes by landlords. He reversed the roles. If the camera/device has a microphone along with video, that is a HUGE no-no as the privacy violation is huge. Video only, not so servere, video with audio... really bad in most cases. I...

    Wi-Fi device detection

    In windows, the first page that comes up will have a list of things that are active in the area. Are they right on the naming reference? LOL If you see that in the list, there is definitely something there and the hunt is on. Likely a 5g type connection that is totally bypassing your...

    Wi-Fi device detection

    On a PC laptop, go into settings, devices and search for anything on bluetooth, etc. It won't tell you where it is, just that there is something around a detectable. Likely some type of ring camera hidden that has two way audio. You may also be able to change the password on your router...

    A different perspective on "THE BLACK GHOST" by UTG.

    JMO, that car is a max 350K car in great shape. It's not in great shape and the story is what bumped it to a million. A stockish hemi car dominating the streets... OK. I'm sure it ran well, being feared, hardly. The fact that NOBODY from back then seems to recall this being even remotely...

    Incredible story for pro Block. The players are crazy how well they smack that ball around the course. I started playing when I was about 6-7. Didn't have much patience, but was pretty good. My grandfather suggested I stick with it and my response from playing football, hockey, etc was...
