Shit...when some of those bugs smack my windshield running down the freeway I wonder somedays why it didn't just break. June Bugs are the worst.

Revving up their engines, they rush to the top of the dune, make a breathtaking U-turn practically at its crest, and plunge back down the slope, leaving a mini-sandstorm in their wake. On long weekends, the mountain located about 25 miles east of Fallon, resembles an anthill, with several hundred vehicles mercilessly plying its sides and clusters of agitated watchers cheering below. OH SWEET JESUS!! My dad has joked about this for years, but it almost sounds like someone is pissed that we are ruining the fucking sand. Fuckin sand. "Its popular, so lets stick our hands in it too. See if we can make some money." is what I got out of the article. The thing at the end about one day there might be a casino there... fuck...he knows thats what he's after. Thats why he thinks he shouldn't be saying this. He's giving away what they plan on doing.

Heh. I guess a twitch or a bee zippin up yer nose at 100mph might send you into a hard left and or right wouldn't it?

Just my opinion but...... Its gonna take some power I think. You got to remember you have alot of wind resistance even if you shave the fenders. If I remember right with wind resistance (drag) its exponential, as in if you double your speed you 4x the resistance. (Can't remember its been too long) I liken the bashee to being as aerodynamic as a pair of plyers. It can be done, but you're going to need either a tail wind to reduce your drag, or ALOT of horsepower.

child labor laws, how illigal is this
Cotton eyed Joe replied to sweetshee4312's topic in General Banshee Discussion
Its funny you would mention that. The last 2-3 months when I'm at work and I'm sweating, havin a tough day and thinking "man...this sucks and I want to go home early, or just go work on my bike," I think of the guy that comes into my shop a few times per month that is happy (HAPPY!!!) this is his first summer and hopefully christmas at home with his family in 4 years. He's been to Iraq ALOT, and he told me when he's given a job he does it. He's got 15 years in, he plans on retiring at 20, and even runs a concrete finishing business on the side. I keep that in my head when I think its less than perfect conditions at the shop, or the gym when I'm (and 40 other people) doing my 60 minutes of cardio and the cheap bastards won't turn on the AC even though they own 10 Golds Gyms in this area....those soldiers out there putting everything they have on the line and can't just say "man its hot in here." and go home like I can. Hell I have the luxury of a 20 minute shit break at work when it comes up, and I don't have people shooting at me while I'm doin it. -
I have a buddy that was selling his drag car and had people flying out here to look at it. Give it a go if you think its worth it, but see if you can get him to send you the VIN number and do one of the CARFAX things someone mentioned. Then just go like hell like Smokey and the Bandit between TX and NY. That way if you brake down you'll be that much closer to home and the 75 cents per mile tow charge won't hurt so bad.

Making A Ford Crown Vic Extreme Crash Safe
Cotton eyed Joe replied to German Shepherd's topic in General Banshee Discussion
Crown Vic is more like a Land Yacht. -
Thats kinda what I was thinking. When I still had stock pipes I put a 2:1 filter and shaved the head. I went from 200 to a 250. After getting T-5's and some different reeds along with some port work I'm still only at about 320 with the needle in the 2nd richest position. I went to Dumont (near sea level and 85 degrees) and I was running a 410 main.

I'd like to amend my answer. After getting this shits this weekend I've had plenty of thinking time on the toilet. I think you're rear tires might be the problem. Switch them around and see if you mysteriously have more fuel in your tank.

I never liked the movie Demolition Man. -
Want a cool toy for home?
Cotton eyed Joe replied to dogboystoy's topic in General Banshee Discussion
My parents just received a slot machine (about a 70's vintage reel in GREAT shape) from my brother in law. Last week we made about 300 aluminum slugs for it, and honestly its kinda fun to play. We didn't think an aluminum slug would work, but apparently size is more important on this model than the weight of the coin being used. -
Making A Ford Crown Vic Extreme Crash Safe
Cotton eyed Joe replied to German Shepherd's topic in General Banshee Discussion
Do a google search. I found head on offset crash footage for Toyota, Chevy and Ford, and thats the order they finished in. The Toyotas drivers side door could still be opened (after a 40 mph offset) and the Fords TAILGATE was bent after a head on. -
In that case, mate two of them together side by side so I can have a 6 cylinder.
-
#1. That is really fuckin cool. I'd love to see that thing being made. Call it Machine Shop Porn #2. I bet its really expensive.

My father in law dumped a BAR in my hands one day when I was up there axin him gun questions. That would be an awesome gun to keep someone 300m from me with. http://www.rt66.com/~korteng/SmallArms/browning.htm

Has anyone seen the new Polaris Outlaw?
Cotton eyed Joe replied to broke's topic in General Banshee Discussion
I think it would be interesting to see a performance revue from a magazine, with the exception of Dirt Wheels. On one hand I think of it as, if it was such a good thing why hasn't it been done before, but then again you have so many bikes selling so well, why fuck with the design? Tooling aint cheep. On the other hand, about the only new "high performance" sports car with a rear axle instead of IRS is the "new" Mustang isn't it? Get my drift? But before I pass judgement on the performance I'd like to either ride one in the terrain it was designed for or see a good honest NOT PAID FOR revue in a good magazine (not Dirt Wheels) On looks I'll be more than happy to pass judgement, I still think the fucker looks like Zorak from Space Ghost Coast to Coast if you painted it green. -
Drivin down that hiway at nite...
Cotton eyed Joe replied to The Rebel's topic in General Banshee Discussion
LOL Like one of the cops that puts your dick under arrest and she isn't wearing panties? There is a local cop here that I wouldn't mind being pulled over and searched by. -
Being that the tank was empty, you probably have a kinked fuel line somewhere. Maybe your CDI is junk. Saw your CDI in half and let us know whats inside. Its a possibility the little AA batteries inside it need to be changed.

I've used Nyloc nuts since 98 and have NEVER had a problem.

Real Carbon Fiber wallet
Cotton eyed Joe replied to bobbybonilla's topic in General Banshee Discussion
Can you imagine how quick of a shit you could take in that CF terlit? I bet that lunker would weigh more than the toilet itself. -
Real Carbon Fiber wallet
Cotton eyed Joe replied to bobbybonilla's topic in General Banshee Discussion
If you find out where to buy carbon fiber sheet lemme know. I have a few things to make, and it either learn how to thermal form plastic, work with fiberglass resin, or carbon fiber. -
$26.00 for the front, and I don't have the rear.
