    Electric guitar...

    I "found" rocksmith 2014 for my pc and have been just gradually getting my metal speed back up, but playing all the songs I know on a 7 string with fanned frets is a challenge. My left wrist is the one getting the workout now. My pinky finger cramped up playing Jesus of Suburbia because the...

    Rollback wreckers

    Not anymore. Which was a shock when I saw that on the dmv website last night. It was required when I got mine 3 years ago.

    Rollback wreckers

    In Wisconsin at least, you don't need a cdl unless it weighs over 26000 lbs or is a working bus for over 16 people. GL, I drive a 2019 F550 for work and it's not too bad once you get used to it. The biggest issue I've noticed in driving big vehicles is the sheer amount of space you need to turn...

    Electric guitar...

    Very nice. I started playing as a junior in HS, played around for a few years really for my own amusement. I got decent enough where I can pick up songs pretty quickly, but I've always been clumsy on the strings regardless of how much I play. I had an old epi SG for a few years until moving into...

    12 year update Barracuda (semi not running) 99 valkyrie 08 Buell 1125r (non running) 14 RDX 17 Cruze I'm doing a good job of keeping the excess vehicles at bay. But that's mainly the wife's doing lol. We're at 4 to 1 mine and hers. If I get a chance I'd like to get the buell running next year...

    I hate BMW’s

    I don't care. I still desperately want a tuono v4 haha.

    Forum names explained.

    Pretty obvious I hope + my age at the time. Next year my user name will be old enough to vote. Also made it before I read the second book and realized the twist about Paul, because, 15. I've changed it on discord to a reference made in the second book, that I think is funny but probably not...

    MIA

    I sort of left because of the age gap. kind of. The older I get, the more into my generations cars I get. Stuff like the hemi Chargers, Chevy Commodores, maybe a lexus sc 300, C6 corvettes, vipers, toyota Century, kei trucks, etc just the newer cars. I do like the older stuff but I'm not a...

    I hate BMW’s

    Eh, those aren't the worst. My Buell uses T30 torx for like 90% of the fasteners and it's pretty nice, but I also have kept it inside so there's not really any rust issues that I'll ever have to deal with.

    biggest tire for my Valliant

    You can, I did.

    They said it wouldn't work, you did it anyway. How did that work out for you?

    My wife told me not to buy the G8, should have listened. Thankfully that's my only real **** up. My brother is notorious for not listening when told to stop doing stuff (or to not start in the first place) or being by people that do things he can't handle long term. It always comes back to...

    Trying to summon the motivation

    You sound like you could be my dad. Too many projects, all of them half to 3/4 done. In the 25 years we've lived in Wisconsin he's finished 3 projects. 2 roofs and my grandfather's 57 MGA. No other project that he's started has been finished, and he's still talking about buying another car. We...

    How many of your personal cars ended up in junkyards?

    All 3 of my v8 rwd cars (minus the Cuda) got totaled within 2 years of buying them. My 96 caprice lost all oil pressure. So I ripped out the engine and rear end and sold it for scrap. The 95 wagon that replaced it, got t boned hard during the first snow of the year. And just last May, my 09 G8...

    Why Carb and non OD a Gen 3?

    My G8 had a 2.92 rear end and a 6l80 od trans. At 70 mph it cruised at 1750 so that's right on the money. I wouldn't worry about lugging the engine at that rpm even if you're going faster.

    I salute you men and women who

    I intentionally lifted the hood of the Cuda to avoid this. Roof is still being used a shelf though lol. I don't have space for a proper shop, but I'm praying it doesn't look like my dad's when I finally get one. I know people are laughing but when I worked as a cellphone salesman I had a guy...

    What are you listening to ?

    Are you sure you're old. Your music tastes suggest you're like 30-40 lol.

    C&E bodies Rant

    This is a way better idea. I've got it as well and it's amazing. It also blocks ads on YouTube. Please for the love of God, just use Firefox and add extensions, it'll make your life so much nicer when it comes to ads.

    Headers for a A body

    Yup, my G8 had long tubes on it when I bought it and apparently just the headers and a full exhaust on that car are good for 40 whp before a tune. They can make a huge difference.

    I tried, but I just can't take the commercials anymore!

    Don't have cable, use Ublock origin extension on my pc and my phone for internet browsing, have a custom app for youtube that blocks ads and sponsors on my phone, use an adblock dns server on my phone. My life is surprisingly ad free, but I have to work a little harder at making stuff work every...

    True car people are becoming a thing of the past

    My 3 year old is taking an interest in watching me work on my bike and demands the headphones when I'm playing assetto corsa because she likes listening to the cars when I'm driving around. She also enjoys the sound of big cammed v8s. I hope this continues lol.

    True car people are becoming a thing of the past

    Like I said my LS 2.5 made 540 hp with a cam swap, cold air intake, and long tubes. I had A/C and got 23 mpg on the freeway. Modern engines are made for smiles too, look at how fast a modern z06 is. It's almost as fast as a 240 hp superbike. They're just more complicated and far more reliable...
