  2. i met a girl one time at the old george air base at a party for enlisted personell. my buddy was in the air force. i kid you not this girls name was duwanna (no she wasnt black). not sure if its spelled correctly ,but its how its pronounced. :laughoff:

    anywase, i kept saying to my buddy no way thats not her name and they swore to it. so i was buzzed i walked over and asked her is your name really iwanna she affirmed that it was . :laughoff:

    so me being so suave and smooth say "gee, so much for us getting married" . which she looked at me like i just stripped all my gears and replies "why "?? and of course i had to reply "cause my last name is cox" it only took about 2 seconds for her to realize and she turned as red as a honda.

    lol my last name is cox and that story really is true :think::laughoff::laughoff::laughoff:

  4. My 6 year old son Maynard got all kinds of school awards today.

    He's a good student, good child and they had an assembly and gave all the good students recognition.

    His pal Charlie Yo Yo got some awards too.

    I work with an Eddie Dum Dum. another long time friend is Waah Bang.

    Had another dwarf friend named Dallas Short.

    A high voltage overhead lineman I used to drink with is name Richard Shock.

    Names always catch my eye.

    Have a co-worker named Charlie Kawasaki. Always thought what a cool name.

    Walking around downtown London is a cool place on foot. Everyone proudly displays their name on their mailboxes on drip nickle plaques:

    "The Butley's"

    "The Bottoms"

    "The Dicks"

    'The Azzmans"

    Bartender at one pub said the teenage daughters usually aren't "fond" of the names, but in spite of the friction, the familys have an historic past, hence they don't want to break the link, so they hold onto the names.

    My daughter held onto her moms last name, Turbo. Unusual and it fits her.

    6 year old Maynard, collected some school awards today with his pal Charlie Yo Yo. Only 7 kids outta 100 got awards.

    congrats on the awards but the names?? charlie dum dum is it aisan :think:

  5. holy crap you are up there in the rhino!!!!!! How was the landing, I think the person in the back round was saying oh $hit!!!!

    IKNOW IM SAYING HOLY sh*t EITHER THAT PIC IS DECEPTIVE (LIKE MY CAPS DOH !!) or that hurt coming down i saw that yesterday and i was speechless

  6. extreme sand cars biuld a nice car. the front end on the eyeballs is very similar. somthing alan at extreme isnt real happy about. However there a good car. eyeball has biult several lightbars for a few of the extreme cars so i have met a few of them being freinds with chris from eyeball. And they hang out at the eyeball camp alot . and i asked them questions because i almost bought an extreme car myself ( i didnt have your paetience lol ) eyeball could biuld mine quicker

    the way you biuid it is your bussiness but i think your picking a solid frame anywase :headbang1:

    p.s. get bypasses on all 4 corners what ever you do the ride is diffrent like day and night, one trip down sand hiway will convince you

  7. pics? which ones? :laughoff:

    I think he is in his 30's. (32 to be exact from his profile)

    The way he described it to me was he was wheeling down a dune standing up and when the quad got to the bottom- the suspension compressed and rebounded back up causing the seat to hit him and break his back. He said it was completely unexpected and didn't seem like it would be that bad. :DDRrocks:

    i saw a pic of him dressed in yellow riding gear in the thnx giving report thread, im 43 32 is young bro. :headbang1:

  8. i dunno guys the more i see the more i dont trust half of the buggies being biult out there.We al know you play with turbos and blowers your playing with high heat and an early demise of your motor. pound 4 pound the ls1s northstars and sb chevys are the best bang for buck stock .in my opinion

    id be more worried about the biulding of the frames dam that yellow car that wasnt right 4 rolls and its destroyd !! that thing is scrap. ive seen pics of funcos broke in half on the dune buggy . com sight. i would be more worried about a decent chassi then the motor .

    by the time you turbo charge a subaru to make its power that a stock ls1 makes and still wont make the tourqe. and its more suseptable to breakage than the stock one

    but rk i would say get a decent frame lightweight small motor isnt what its cracked up to be

    strong frame heavier car and use tourqe from a v8 :D:headbang1:

    jusy my 2 cents as a L.T. owner ex turbo owner and a blower owner at present.

  9. Whoever gets the better start wins.

    according to bound4dirt they did rolling start standing start short distance long distance the honda never at any point was in front................................................. i think ill just play with rapturds

  10. in the two wheeler world there 2 strokes are some of the fastest awsom bikes hard to get parts some people would argue the point but there 4 strokes are luke warm at best now they might have improved the 525 but that 525sx 2 wheeler gets stomped by the crf450 2 wheeler i watched an xr600 take one apart on china wall then the crf took both of them apart. both the 525 and the 450 were in our camp dunno the owner of the 600r.as far as the quads go ive heard the i.r.s. isnt corner friendly has anyone else seen or rode them ??

    i have a 90cc predator for mt daughter and i was getting promos that they were merging with ktm.

  11. and the predaturd beat the 07 450 by 2 quads you guys keep telling me there predaturds but they keep beating everything. that trx 450 is supposed to be "bad a$$" im really cornfused :headbang1: it was bound4dirts predaturd by the way :DDRrocks:

  12. There are so many variables the only thing a chassi dyno is good for is if you repeatedly use the same one for testing. The actual number is virtually worthless. First there is what kind of dyno? Dynojets are commonly way higher then say a mustang dyno. Second there is sae or corrected? Then there are those factors, temp, hum, altitude, etc....and if the operator inputs any? Then the gears in the car, final drive ratio, effects calculated rwhp. The gear they do the pull in also effects the hp. Tire size, and the angle at which the tie downs are applied. I ve seen nearly 100 hp swings with no change in the car, depending on these factors. Dyno operators know that people like big numbers, so which way do you thnk they will fudge?

    Typically about 14.5 psi will double the na output. Timing can effect rwhp just as much as psi in some areas. 1 degree here or there or the fuel, which effects timing etc....

    I like the mustang dyno personally, I dyno a car on the mustang, if it makes 360 on there it will go 400-410 on the dyno jet.

    I hate to say it, but most of the hp numbers I hear in sand world seem very high, esspecially for what I ve seen done. Being that I know alot about and build and tune ls1's everyday, this is my reference. Most ls1 sand cars seem very over rated imo. Ofcourse , just like on the pavement, tire choice seems to be just as important in the sand which most never expiriment with or ever get timed in the sand anyways, just like suspensions.

    along with this is a couple of other things when they test for the magazines they tweak the hp up so high the car wont run very long get the big number then back it down. they do it for the magazines. westech in miraloma cal. is about the best ive seen they give you dynojet and corrected mine for example is 583 hp to the rear wheels on dynojet but on factory rating i run 548 rwhp mines turned down to these numbers. it is ridiculous and im backing mine off. after i race a ken bell blown 427 ls1. that eyeball just biult then im going down into 480s for rwhp

  13. i have a box trailer with a motor home. i showed you the pics. anywase, i had a 70 gal fuel cell biult under the boxtrailer no problem .if theres room they can do it .just be mindfull of the weight. gas ways approx 8lbs to the gallon. you dont want to much tail weight = fishtailing .to much front weight = broken hitch .do the math try to make the trailer axels do the work with emphises on a lil tounge weight :D. mine waas set with all tounge weight but mine is a box trailer so i dont have all those living goodies in it gl :D

  14. take everything they just said and throw it away sand turkeys rock its just like a weber !!! you dig a pit line it in coals you wrap the turkey in foil with butter and seasonings.you lite coals place turkey on bed od coals now cover the top still below sand level as soon as those light you bury it mark it and 8 hours later voila !!! deeeeeelish !!!!
