here's the only pic... I hit the curb straight on... in this pic, we had already manually turned the car 90 degrees to get ready to roll it off the track. There are 6 islands in the lot, and the run goes through them.... very tight turn before the island to slow you down, but wide open on the other side. I got sideways while accelerating out, and decided to put both feet in and take the hit, rather than try to drive out of it and really take a monstrous hit. Anyway, leaving to go get it now...

Yes. I'm fine. just got home, and waiting for my friend to bring a trailer so we can go pick up the remains. The entire front suspension and accompanying frame is destroyed. I had a bad feeling about the layout, and sure enough, nailed it on my last run. The car ran FANTASTIC though, so had a great day. A couple of different instructors got to drive it too, and loved how she handled, etc... It was very encouraging. No video... I do have one pic that I will upload shortly. At this point I'm not sure how extensive the damage to the rest of the frame is.

Hey guys, Please refrain from responding to these posts. Just report, and we will continue to moderate them. Thanks.

Apparently sevens are not good at climbing curbs at 50 mph. Who knew? :leaving:

In 1972, Joe Miller was on holiday in Kenya after graduating from Tulsa Junior College . On a hike through the bush, he came across a young bull elephant standing with one leg raised in the air. The elephant seemed distressed, so Joe approached it very carefully. He got down on one knee, inspected the elephant’s foot, and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it. As carefully and as gently as he could, Joe worked the wood out with his knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot. The elephant turned to Joe, and with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments. Joe stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled. Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away. Joe never forgot that elephant or the events of that day. Thirty years later, Joe was walking through the Tulsa Zoo with his family. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and walked over to near where Joe and his family were standing. The large bull elephant stared at Joe, lifted its front foot off the ground, and then put it down. The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man. Remembering the encounter in 1972, Joe could not help wondering if this was the same elephant... Joe summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing, and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder. The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Joe's legs and slammed him against the railing killing him instantly. Probably wasn't the same elephant.

Over 1g in acceleration!!!! Eddie, I know 1g in acceleration ain't no big deal to you... but for the rest of us... LOL

:iagree:

yup

Nice! :thumbs: Arya's neighbor at snowshoe has a twin engined creation rusting away in a barn.

John, looks fantastic. Thanks for sharing.

I bought the last of the Toyo RA-1's at our local tire place. Been happy with them. The replacement R888's tread pattern looks much less rain friendly - not sure if it actually is or not.

awesome :rofl:

I'll give those a try Morgan :thumbs:

nicely done. LOL

He has his own fan page in the admin section :rofl:

Four brothers left home for college, and they became successful doctors and lawyers and prospered. Some years later, they chatted after having dinner together. They discussed the gifts they were able to give their elderly mother who lived far away in another city. The first said, "I had a big house built for Mama." The second said, "I had a hundred thousand dollar theater built in the house." The third said, "I had my Mercedes dealer deliver an SL600 to her." The fourth said, "You know how Mama loved reading the Bible and you know she can't read anymore because she can't see very well. I met this preacher who told me about a parrot that can recite the entire Bible. It took twenty preachers 12 years to teach him. I had to pledge to contribute $50,000 a year for twenty years to the church, but it was worth it. Mama just has to name the chapter and verse and the parrot will recite it." The other brothers were impressed. After the holidays Mom sent out her Thank You notes. She wrote: " Milton , the house you built is so huge that I live in only one room, but I have to clean the whole house. Thanks anyway." "Marvin, I am too old to travel. I stay home, I have my groceries delivered, so I never use the Mercedes. But, I do appreciate the thought. Thanks.." "Michael, you gave me an expensive theater with Dolby sound, but I've lost my hearing and I'm nearly blind. I'll never use it. But, thank you for the gesture just the same." "Dearest Melvin, you were the only son to have the good sense to give a little thought to your gift. The chicken was delicious. Thank you." Love, MAMA

A man escapes from a prison where he's been locked up for 15 years. He breaks into a house to look for money and guns. Inside, he finds a young couple in bed. He orders the guy out of bed and ties him to a chair. While tying the home owner's wife to the bed, the convict gets on top of her, kisses her neck, then gets up and goes into the bathroom. While he's in there, the husband whispers over to his wife, 'Listen, this guy is an escaped convict. Look at his clothes! He's probably spent a lot of time in jail and hasn't seen a woman in years. I saw how he kissed your neck. If he wants sex, don't resist, don't complain... do whatever he tells you. Satisfy him no matter how much he nauseates you. This guy is obviously very dangerous. If he gets angry, he'll kill us both. Be strong, honey. I love you!' His wife responds, 'He wasn't kissing my neck. He was whispering in my ear. “He told me that he's gay, Thinks you're cute, and asked if we had any Vaseline. I told him it’s in the bathroom.” Be strong. I love you too honey!'

I really wouldn't want anyone referring to my engine as a VAG. Just saying

Wish I could make it down for that.

:rofl: busted!

perhaps in the paid members section

Yup. The odor is strong with this one

No worries Croc. Brunny is stirring the pot to get banned, then log in with his other userid's to have some fun. Reminds me of a certain other member who doesn't have anything better to do with his life. CIA will keep watch

Yes. But keep it a secret. :lurk:
