One other thing... those charges shouldn't stick because the choppers were not responding to an emergency. If they were police choppers responding to the call and something happened, then maybe. Even then, if they didn't follow established protocols, it should be a toss-up.

This was posted by KitKat in the other thread (which I'm going to lock) As I noted a week or 2 ago on the Se7ens mailing list, I took temps in my 1700cc Crossflow with just a handheld digital room thermometer. On a 80 degree day with the top off and side curtains up: Passenger side 85 degrees Driver's side- 111 degrees on my lap with side curtain fastened; Driver's side- 101 on my lap with the bottom 1/2 of the side curtain flipped completely up (where air pressure holds it in place @ 70 mph ). All temps measured in the shade, on a mostly sunny day. Toasty. On a really hot day, I am sure the #'s would be much higher.

Is the clunk sound any different than any other bike sequential tranny?

This is my solution to the heat problem... Reflectix: Picture shows only the top of the tunnel is covered, but I covered the whole tunnel. Any of you who got rides from me at 7/7/7 know that you still get hot feet... It is because I did not get a chance to cover the deep part of the footwell before the event, nor the area behind the pedal, or above the feet. Any area that is covered with this stuff is completely cool to the touch, and my engine puts out some SERIOUS HEAT. I got the idea from the corvette crowd, who have been using it for years to insulate the center tunnel (dual exhaust pipes pass right under the driveshaft, so there is quite a bit of heat). You can buy it at Home Depot. Look in the construction supply area where the insulation stuff is. Sometimes it is hard to find, and when you ask for Reflectix, you might as well start talking chineese - but it is there. I also have an extra pack that's more than enough to do somebody's car. If no place close to you carries the stuff, send me a messsage. To top it off, this stuff is cheap and very easy to install, holds its shape, and is pretty flat. http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/894129987_CIMG1565%20(Small).JPG

It is not only dangerous, it is also stupid and unreasonable. As I understand, the guy was in a LOW SPEED chase. Why the media feels this type of story requires arial coverage to begin with is beyond me. I know the exact reason why the choppers crashed... they didn't follow protocol. THEY are responsible for making sure they don't crash into each other. Now, if the guy was shooting into the air, then it'd be a different story.

ah, you can ignore all that stuff... it's a direct bolt in for me, not one pound extra weight, with 2000 lbs less to push around than in the F body. I'm not quite ready for more power yet... just getting used to the current power level now. After I get totally used to slidin' her around, I may entertain something like this which still has serious top end, but better low end than what I'm currently running.

not really sure but having a hell of a time finding out

I bought one using their directions, and it's a little too tight around the cheek bone area. I can wear it for 20-30 minutes at a time - max :banghead:

Oh, I think the problem is those images are way too big. Max size for upload is 1 Meg I believe. Please resize them before uploading.

No luck with the uploads apparently... Michael, hit the edit button on your post, then on the lower left side of the screen, look for "upload image" button and follow instructions from there...

I REALLY should avoid looking at things like this Those numbers are at the wheels!! normally aspirated, all motor - direct bolt-in for me :willy: Best part is the FLATNESS of the torque curve... YUM [edit: this is NOT from my car, but it could be ] http://www.usa7s.com/aspnetforum/upload/2041506062_Dyno07-19-06.jpg

BTW, post up some video's of this puppy in action

well, you can always go back to normally aspirated. a blower on my engine won't be very peaky... more like a freight train :yesnod: maybe you can talk busaloco into swapping parts with you I have never driven a street legal BEC, but have about 20 hours of seat time behind a turbo 600cc formula SAE car (with the restrictor removed). You can spin yourself dizzy :lol:

Gert, that sucks! Is it because the accessory belt spins the pump the opposite direction? You should probably post this in one of the UK sites.

Stalkers are pretty impressive :yesnod: I have seen them from behind :lol:

I found this link on locostusa.com Although not seven related, I think some of you will enjoy it Clicky :cheers:

Reminds me of "The Caboose who got loose" :lol:

He's 80, she's 20... It was the stir of the town when an 80 year old man married a 20 year old girl. After a year of marriage she went into the hospital to give birth. The nurse came out to congratulate the fellow saying: "This is amazing. How do you do it at your age? "He answered, "Having a couple vintage Corvettes, I learned a long time ago, you've got to keep the old motor running." The following year the young bride gave birth again. The same nurse said: "You're amazing! I still don't know how do you can do it!" He again said: "You've just got to the keep the old motor running." The same thing happened the next year. The nurse then said: "Well, well, well!!! You certainly are quite a man!" He responded again, "You've got to keep that old motor running." The nurse said: "Well, you better change the oil. This one's black."
