post your ride

lol damn it, waxing my vette was a bad idea. it just exposed every crack and chip in the paint more so then ever. but on the upside, it does look nice when you stand a couple feet away.

actually, i've always wanted to try that. wonder what it feels like. And would it make parallel parking easier or more difficult?

When I was there I hired a car for a few days, then changed to a bike, it took me long enough to get used to the USA and swapping sides of the road and hands for the gear stick never mind a combination of both !

lol....that's another thing i would like to try out. Right side drive on left side of the road.

It's all just habit though. You become accostomed to driving on the side of the car and road that you have grown up in.

Well it isn't "my ride", but it was in my control for about 10 minutes while he handed control over to me. Very fun! Probably about my 15th time up in the past 10 - 12 years.

My Uncle's bi-plane- he built it from ground up.
-classification: experimental

I am the guy with the funny leather helmet on.

I took the pics below 10 minutes before my ride- My uncle as pilot again, my brother's wife as passenger..

landing, and taxi back to hanger...

Just about the most fun you can have. -and this is a slow plane, the one we used to go up in was a true stunt plane, he sold that and then built this one (among quite a few others).. Pretty cool uncle.

Zardon · Jun 20, 2005, 08:07 PM

very cool indeed !

Cheers Zardon. Does your blade have a back pressure control unit in the exhaust collector or under the seat? I found mine under the seat, also what tyres are you using?

Son_of_Thunder · Jun 22, 2005, 08:27 AM

Well, here's some pics w/ my crappy old camera. The flash didn't work on it, so it's always blurry.

CDsDontBurn · Jun 22, 2005, 08:42 AM

some pix of my truck....kinda miss it sometimes.

the engine compartment......i put in that intake myself. kinda tacky i know, but i like the way it sounded

the first pic i took w/my camera when i got my truck

two pix after i had washed my truck

my ex-gf messing around. she wrote "suck me" on the dirt that had collected on the tail gate because i had not washed my truck

this is just a picture i really liked

nope you learn to appreciate your work, get more respect off the street and more street smarts. i mean i didnt live in the true ghetto, but it was pretty ghetto hige rise buildings for yrs. my newschool has low-standards, so when i roll in with that accord they go WOW best car in the lot! not really a big deal to be honest, its no g35 which is minimum for props in opinion.

but thats a whole different topic my life story and my very bad luck lol. back to the vehicles

Dark Lord · Jun 23, 2005, 07:13 AM

lol you should have seen my school.

new BMW on your right, full size Hummer on your left, varius 2003,4, and 5 cars all over. suburbans and explorers all over the place. every one of them loaded with a premium system AKA 2000+ watt subs.

and then there was me.... shitty 1990 sunbird with rust on every panel, peeling clear coat, dents and scratches all over with my stock speakers.

hell, there was one guy i knew that started out on a 90ish S-10 blazer. he totald it with in a month. parents go out and buy him a 2004 Avalanche, it ends up being stolen a couple of months later. about a week after its stolen, theres a brand new Escalade, fully loaded sitting in his drive way for him.

while i hated driveing in that parking lot, it was nice knowing that ill still have perfect hearing in 10 years, and at home i had a car that would smoke just about everything in the lot.

but that was a decision i decided to take when i purchased my car
