  1. i have a logitech x530... computer surround sound. give the sub i think like 20+ watts RMS .. i was wondering if anyone has ever tried to rewire the internal amp for more power.. someone said they have a resister that limits power.. anyone ever tried it and how did it go?
  2. where the hells chode hes slacking on his duties..HAHA
  3. i goto your rival..HAHA Wyotech
  4. i get 400$ a month after rent, still gotta buy food and all that shit, my car get 15MPG, and i had to have it in the shop this past two weeks, $350.. so im left with 50$ for the rest of the month..ULTRA FUCK THIS
  5. ^^ and also had about 1500 fl/lbs of torque if not more if its a tractor trailer
  6. and gear ratio.. with the less weight the motorcycle can run lower gears because it accelerates so much faster..
  7. ebaying it would be a shame... all the great work meade has put into it.. you should tour it..
  8. its all automotive. they have heavy duty diesel, light duty. high performance body automotive technician like and a whole bunch of other stuff.. i am currently attending wyotech right now. in pennsylvania. its a GREAT school and you learn ALOT.. im very pleased. which campus are you thinking about going to?
  9. DEFINITION OF ACCELERATION One top fuel dragster 500 cubic inch Hemi engine makes more horsepower than the first 5 rows of stock cars at the Daytona 500. (approx - 8000 hp) Under full throttle, a dragster engine consumes 1-1/2 gallons of nitro methane per second; a fully loaded 747 consumes jet fuel at the same rate with 25% less energy being produced. A Dodge Hemi V8 street engine cannot produce enough power to drive the dragster's supercharger. With 3,000 CFM of air being rammed in by the supercharger on overdrive, the fuel mixture is compressed into a near-solid form before ignition. Cylinders run on the verge of hydraulic lock at full throttle. At the stoichiometric (stoichiometry: methodology and technology by which quantities of reactants and products in chemical reactions are determined) 1.7:1 air/fuel mixture of nitro methane, the flame front temperature measures 7,050 deg F. (approx - 14.7:1+ on a car) Nitro methane burns yellow. The spectacular white flame seen above the stacks at night is raw burning hydrogen, dissociated from atmospheric water vapor by the searing exhaust gases. Dual magnetos supply 44 amps to each spark plug. This is essentially the output of an arc welder in each cylinder. Spark plug electrodes are totally consumed during a pass. After halfway, the engine is dieseling from compression, plus the glow of exhaust valves at 1,400 deg F. The engine can only be shut down by cutting the fuel flow. If spark momentarily fails early in the run, unburned nitro builds up in the affected cylinders and then explodes with sufficient force to blow cylinder heads off the block in pieces or split the block in half. In order to exceed 300 mph in 4.5 seconds, dragsters must accelerate an average of over 4G's. In order to reach 200 mph (well before half-track), the launch acceleration approaches 8G's. Dragsters reach over 300 miles per hour before you have completed reading this sentence. Top fuel engines turn approximately 540 revolutions from light to light! Including the burnout, the engine must only survive 900 revolutions under load. The redline is actually quite high at 9,500 rpm. Assuming all the equipment is paid off, the crew worked for free, and for once NOTHING BLOWS UP, each run costs an estimate $1,000.00 per second. Most top fuel crews include 6 team members and a crew chief and today few of the top teams have anyone working for free. If you run 4 passes to qualify and 4 passes on Sunday that is about $64k plus crew, driver and breakage and there is plenty of that in Top fuel. No wonder they need Big sponsor bucks. The current top fuel dragster elapsed time record is 4.441 seconds for the quarter mile (10/05/03, Tony Schumacher). The top speed record is 333.00 mph (533 km/h) as measured over the last 66' of the run (09/28/03 Doug Kalitta). You are driving the average $140,000 Lingenfelter "twin-turbo" powered Corvette Z06. Over a mile up the road, a top fuel dragster is staged and ready to launch down a quarter mile strip as you pass. You have the advantage of a flying start. You run the Vette hard up through the gears and blast across the starting line and pass the dragster at an honest 200 mph. The "tree" goes green for both of you at that exact split second moment. The dragster launches and starts after you. You keep your foot down hard, but you hear an incredibly brutal whine that sears your eardrums and within 3 seconds, the dragster catches and passes you. He beats you to the finish line, a quarter mile away from where you just passed him by a significant margin. Think about it; from a standing start, the dragster had spotted you 200 mph and not only caught you, but nearly blasted you off the road when he passed you all within a mere 1,320 foot long race course.
