  1. You better be careful! They just might. I married one and brought her back to MS... lol. Good people, but can be wicked crazy. Oh yeah- I say super bowl win. It's gonna' happen.
  2. Good pics! I remember that Orange and Blue Ford Lightning from Scrapin' last year. It has been so long since I have been to a World of Wheels show.. ah! Thanks for letting me live vicariously through your photos.
  3. Sorry for your loss. Yes, that was VERY disrespectful. I Always stop and put on my headlights until the ENTIRE motorcade is past. People who have never been in that situation or just don't have any respect or home training don't get it- honestly, it is the least someone can do for those who have lost someone. No one should ever be in that much of a hurry unless it is an ambulance IMO. I stopped once for a motorcade and the person behind me tried to go around me to go past the motorcade. I pulled out sideways in the road and stopped them. They realized it once I did it, but the nerve of some people. Try to let it go though- don't let it color your memory of your Grandmother's service or of Her.
  4. Glad to hear all are OK. TBs are tough! I saw one rear end a dually Ford once and the Ford truck went into the air. The TB crumpled like an aluminum can in the front but by 8" in front of the windshield- nothing. The lady was fine. Yeah, they are pretty safe vehicles, that's why the wife drives one. Again, glad to hear all made it ok.
  5. I made the chamber once and tested it out but never installed it. Mine would pull somewhere around 30-35 amps if you would let it! Lots of bubbles! I do know that HHO generators work. Simple electrolysis. Put an electrical charge through water and boom! It separates the Hydrogen and Oxygen- and now you have 2 things that will combust and facilitate combustion. If you install one there are things you need OTHER than the HHO chamber. You need a PWM or a Pulse Width Modulator to facilitate in the electrolysis so the water doesn't get UBER Hot. Check it out, these people have them in different sizes: http://www.bakatronics.com/shop/item.aspx?itemid=581 You also need to have a "bubbler" to keep the moisture going into your motor at a minimum. And you need a backflash preventer or a one way catch in your tube. If your motor backfires without one there will be trouble. I keep on meaning to really work on mine. Perhaps I take vids to show how I did my first one? It looks like all the other vids on YouTube though.... people turn them on and out come the bubbles. It wouldn't be hard to set one up on a relay to your ignition and with a defeat switch. That way it can only be on when you have your key on.
  6. meh... not bad for an Astro with Hifonics power.... Looks nasty!
  7. You are right on that though- I have seen lots myself. Not I though! Always been a Saints fan (who else am I going to pull for, being from MS?). The wifey and her fam are all from LA. They are Saints fans who remember the bad times... and the Really bad times.. lol.
  8. This saddens me. I bet the noise you were hearing was overexcursion or something related to the bottom spider beginning to come loose from the cone. These subs are like 10+ years old afterall. RECONE! Or sell me the basket!
  9. Watching the excursion at 0:06 made me Pretty cool!
  10. I've seen drawings of that in HOTROD and CAR CRAFT but I didn't think that someone was going to build one! Cool find. That would be big custom $$$ if you could get one tho!
  11. It was meeee! hahaha Great song though. I can't get it out of my head.
  12. I would say cool, but it has been done before- by THE Wayne Harris. http://www.termpro.com/showcars/index.asp?Page=2 http://www.termpro.com/showcars/index.asp?Page=3 http://www.termpro.com/showcars/index.asp?Page=4
  13. Great game! I might try to resurrect the N64! Mine wouldn't come all the way on last time I tried it. We since have gotten a 50" !! That would be fun to relive the old days.... I wonder if it can be downloaded off of the Wii network?

  15. That's great! I love how the cat's tail gets all fluffed up by the end. lol Here is one of my cats in my HT sub box. He is in one of the ports.... there are 4 12"s in a box the size of a refrigerator. I had the wood... i figured, since space isn't an issue.... why not?
  16. That's a good question. Back when I had one amp, I would use a combo. of the knob and the subwoofer level on my HU. Now I have multiple amps, with different bass knob connections so I just use the HU. I would think the proper way would be to put in a track with a sine wave of like 60 or 45 hz or so and adjust your HU up all the way until you begin to get clipping- then back off. Then do the same with your bass knob until you get clipping and boom- you know what to not go past. You pretty much need an O-Scope for that though. Or.... set the knob all the way up and adjust backward with an O-Scope to make sure you have no clipping. That way you can be sure that with everything all the way up, your signal is clean. Someone check me, but isn't that how Steve has the Tahoe set up?
  17. http://cgi.ebay.com/2-Rockford-Fosgate-12-...=item439c74b698 Not my auction- just thought I would post it for everyone on here to see. Never know when people are looking for hard to find Old School stuff. If I were a RF fan, I would be all over these. 600 watt - 4" voice coil Old School Goodness!?!? Mmmm. I may have to stop myself. The guy even has free shipping and a clean rating.
  18. Damnation!!!! The Level 6 of firecrackerz!!!! lol
  19. WOOTIE!!!! Here's to you having a great time with the Tahoe and at the show!
  20. Oh noes! FIRE! x10000 Stop, get a cheap amp kit with a FUSE and start over.
  21. Thanks man. We just love ours! We even have family photos with them... yes, we are "those" people. At the moment, in the absence of children, the pits are our babies. They have so much character!
  22. You are spot on. I have often thought about growing out my beard and putting on a turban when I have to fly, because I have SEEN those guys go through the search with almost NO search.... but I have to take off my belt, shoes, empty my pockets, you name it. I saw them FULLY search an 80+ year old woman in a damn wheelchair!!! WTF! Check this out... when the cops go out looking for prostitutes, do they check the 80 year old women and the people using walkers and wheelchairs and then look the other way when a woman wearing a short ass miniskirt, fishnets and 4" stilettos bends over into a car window??? HELL NO! I think people are beginning to realize that we are about to be f'd. We have a president and staff who seriously believe that what happened was an Isolated Incident and that the "System" performed as it should have?!?!? No one is that Stupid. They knew and Know that this was going to happen. Had the underwear bomber's explosives not screwed up, THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN TERRORIST CAUSED DEATHS on CHRISTMAS!!! Not a "man-made disaster" but a TERRORIST Act. You can call a turd a rose, but it is still going to smell like CRAP.
