welcome aboard, and there is a BEC section here also :cheers:

That's all i'm sayin' :lol:

Thanks for posting those... now I remember how hot it was :lol:

I don't have any pics of it, but years ago, I retrofitted a GM 3400 out of a camaro into a Russian UAZ military jeep. had to make bellhousing adaptor, motor mounts, etc... did it from start to finish in two weeks and had the running car at the New York auto show at the end of the two weeks.

Apple Computer announced today that it has developed a chip that can store and play music in women's breast implants. The iTit will cost $499 or $599 depending on cup size. This is considered to be a major breakthrough since women are always complaining about men staring at their breasts and not listening to them.

I guess it doesn't work very well then :lol:

I just read all 8 pages on that thread. Wow.

Thanks.

I vaguely recall seeing you post some details on that somewhere. do you have a link?

:iagree:

I admire your sketchup skills :thumbs: I'm going to try playing with solidworks a little bit, and see how that turns out. Do you have any plans for how to bend those tubes? The mkdevelopments car is pretty much along the lines of what I had in mind. Pretty cool.

Excellent. that's good to know. :cheers:

:rofl: I wonder how many are around... Ted Panofski on the west coast, and I'm here. There was another red one in the midwest I think.

F1000 is pretty sweet. Of course, when I say FSAE, I don't really mean those specs... I mean, who would build a car like that, and only put a 600cc motor in there? :crazy: Actually, since I don't ever plan to race in any sanctioned series, I just want to build something fun. Busa engine comes to mind, but it's so damn expensive after the sump and all that. Maybe the R1 or another 750cc to 1L engine. Also minimalist body work... F1000 probably requires way more body work than I could handle. An air cooled 2 stroker, skip the diff (I don't know if this would fly) would be pretty awesome to try too, but I'm not familiar with what's in the market. Talk about super lightness. Basically an overgrown gokart with actual suspension and roll/safety structure. Anyway, at this point, I'm just taking mental notes. Looking through the dp1 site, it is both fasinating and discouraging how much work goes into a properly designed and built car - although mine will be definitely more "backyard" than that kind of effort.

That'd be sweet

:nonod: More of a FSAE variety. Of course, there is no NEED for such a thing, but I'm beginning to feel a WANT It wouldn't replace the Rotus (wouldn't be a seven), and if I do it, the vette will have to go :cry: Not in the immediate future anyway, but I've been reading, and when I read, there is trouble ahead.

:nonod: More like a formula SAE type of contraption. Of course there is no NEED for such a thing, but I think there is a WANT. And this is not to replace the Rotus, although the vette will surely have to go :cry: Not in the immediate future anyway, but I've been doing some reading, and that almost always results in action.

through the foggy parts of my mind (there are lots of those), I'm starting to see a little creation... kinda sounds like a high revving mofo too. of the middi single seat variety. :leaving:

Try it on your finger...

:lol:

Super Al strikes again :thumbs:

That's the only way to get cops to obey traffic laws... Read this... how many other cops turned a blind eye to this until the inevitable?

Just a little over the top. :lol: Although this does get around the traction problem... hmmm...

What tires are you running? :bigears:

When Al was going to VIR, he stopped over with his friend Jim and I gave Jim a "leisurely" ride... A LEO caught up to me after a couple of throttle blips and fired up his spot light on my car to say hello. Fortunately I wasn't really speeding... just getting there quickly.
