I can't connect to that bridgetogantry.com website at all. Anybody else having issues?

Damn, I saw the g meter peak at 2.1x in the long carousel corner! I wonder what tires it was on?

Randy is a very talented car artist. I love the simplicity of swapping the steering over from top to bottom control.

Thanks for sharing that amazing display of driving from both drivers!

Amazing story there. Sad to hear that Jim didn't make it. Test pilots are a special breed indeed.

I particularly like the sound of my Busa engine at 11,000 rpm THANK YOU VERY MUCH! :bigear:

C'était génial! Ils ont vraiment ne donne pas assez de temps entre les voitures de course. Sur la deuxième vidéo vous êtes allé avant que la lumière passe au vert.

Ain't nothing like a reality check. Sure beats the hell out of only turning left, eh bubba?

The long range Westfield fuel tank is 45 liters = 11.8 gallons. My Westfield Megabusa gets ~22 mpg cruising at 70mph. Keep in mind it has the same coefficient of drag as a Hummer H1. And that's before you put my roll cage on.

FAST SEX! Darren wanted desperately to have sex with this really cute, really hot girl in his office. But she was dating someone else. One day Darren got so frustrated that he went to her and said I'll give you $100 if you let me have sex with you. The girl looked at him and then said, "NO!" Darren said, "I'll be real fast. I'll throw the money on the floor, you bend down and I'll finish by the time you've picked it up." She thought for a moment and said that she would consult with her boyfriend. So she called him and explained the situation. Her boy friend says, "Ask him for $200 and pick up the money really fast. He won't even be able to get his pants down. Then give me a call." She agreed and accepts the proposal. Over 30 minutes go by and the boyfriend is still waiting for his girlfriend's call. Finally, after 45 minutes the boyfriend calls and asks, "What happened?" Still breathing hard, she managed to reply, "The bastard had all quarters!" Management lesson: Always consider a business proposition in its entirety before agreeing to it and getting screwed.

I get what you mean with the over eager personalities. I picture when the cameras are turned off they jump into a Miata and drive off into the sunset. My favorite to watch how crazy he could get was Buzz on Truck Universe, now Truck U. He was so damn excited to put a set of brake pads! They canned him and put a race car driver, Bruno on there now. Thank god for triple fast forward on all of these shows!

I heard the deer whistles actually attract deer. *shrug*

No worries on the lambo. I'll be driving as slow as possible to show Catherine off. Lol! I saw that video before. He was lucky!

With the intercooler piping so short by the throttle body you could probably get away with putting the BOV on the passenger side of the intercooler (like a Subaru WRX). Just remove the intercooler, drill and tap the end tank, and mount the BOV.

Hmm... I would see about purchasing Catherine Zeta Jones. http://www.tvpredictions.com/joneshd.jpg If she wasn't on the market I would contact Chip Foose and get him to build the perfect 7 for me. My redneck side would kick in and the end result would probably be a 1000 HP all-wheel drive monster, but it would at least look Sevenish. http://www.supercars.net/carpics/3618/2007_Foose_Hemisfear1.jpg I'd buy a Buffalo Mine Protected Vehicle to drive around town in. http://www.treehugger.com/buffalo-mine-protected-vehicle-01.jpg Oh and I'd buy something to tool around in on the weekends. (1500 HP TT Lambo) http://www.motormavens.com/emAlbum/albums/Contributors/James%20Evins/Events/Underground%20Racing%20Lamborghini/_fullsize/Underground_Racing_Lamborghini_Charlotte_Texas_Mile_Top_Speed_Shop_Turbo_8734.jpg

Martin, Please read my post again. You want the BOV as close to the throttle body as possible. Here are a few turbo Miata engine bay examples. http://image.turbomagazine.com/f/30661155/turp_0109_02_z+1990_mazda_miata_turbo+engine_bay.jpg http://image.modified.com/f/16538123+w750+st0/modp_0907_01+1991_mazda_miata_turbo+engine_bay.jpg

A blow-off valve (BOV) is necessary to protect the throttle body blade from bending by keeping compressed air from hitting it when it closes between shifts. It doesn't work that well if you put the BOV right next to the compressor outlet. It is ideal to have the BOV the furthest away from the turbo to exhaust the built up pressure in the intake piping pre-throttle body. Although it looks difficult in your situation I would recommend moving the BOV a few inches from the throttle body.

You know there was already another thread for this, right? Search for "Getting in touch with my feminine side". If you "people" keep starting new threads for those damn cars the public might think this site has a bunch of fairies in it. Time to go clean my gun or chop a tree down or something manly.

I hit a horse back in 1997 in my Eclipse GS-T. http://72.9.148.82/%7Erufridr/images/wreck-front.jpg http://72.9.148.82/%7Erufridr/images/wreck-top.jpg

I'm in the process of bobbing my 1970 M35A2 Deuce and 1/2. Pardon the construction progress photo next to my beautiful Megabusa.

3 things: 1) If they supposedly used a rocket to slow their decent before gently "landing" on the surface of the moon, where is the crater that would have been created from the rocket blast? 2) If we landed on the moon -what was it 5 times?- then why can't we use a telescope on Earth and look at the landing modules, flags, moon buggies, etc. left behind on the moon? We also left a reflector to shoot a laser from Earth to determine that the moon is slowly drifting away from Earth each year (fraction of an inch). I don't want to trust the Hubble or any other digital image. Those huge telescopes (i.e. Hawaii) that are covered by domes until partially opened. I want to sit in the little chair and look through the telescope and see freaking Armstrong footprints or leftover equipment dammit. 3) At the end of the moon visit the lander launches the capsule back into space. Why isn't there any visible signs of rocket exhaust from the bottom of the capsule? A few camera sparkles and the capsule just shoots up. http://hanksdeuce.com/images/tinfoilhatsmile.gif

Uhm... it was staged? :willy_nilly:

The FPS Russia YouTube guy isn't russian either.

We never landed on the moon, dammit!
