  1. like i said before i used to race these bad boys back in the day... here is an al aluminum forged version i built... more of a show truck with a monster motor... wow that sounds strangely familiar... i sold the above for 2k about 6 years ago when i decided to get out of the sport... badass03ss.. pm me with the details?
  2. well i was bored today and decided to go check out a friends hobby shop i used to frequent back in my nitro racing RC days... His shop was one of my sponsors (my sponsor whore-ship has no limits)... anyways it had been about 6 years since i have seen him and he was bitch about sales being slow, with the economy and all, so I figured I would help him out and buy a new toy... he still gave me a smokin' deal... I used to race a Savage MT... so i decided to pick another one up... along with the basic gear. out the door with all the extra crap it was around $500 bucks... didnt expect to buy anything.. but oh well.... wll post some video tomorrow after i break in the engine...
  3. naw we wont have access to the airstrip... it is still active, we may see some fighter jets and helicopters land from time to time... even chase's truck cant compete with an f-22... lol I will call on monday to check the availability, but it shouldnt be a problem...
  4. I had an idea... we are all looking for something cool to do, well my training academy is located on a US Military base and we utilize a 35 acre urban MOUT site... LAPD SWAT, SHERIFF SWAT, Spec Ops training, and more is all conducted on this site... we could all meet there, have a big BBQ, and run around and do paint ball / airsoft games all day... you can rent PB equiptment fairly cheap and we could have a killer time without anyone bothering us... the place is secluded on base and is huge... there are days we train out there and never see anyone, especially on weekends... there is a fee to use the facility but depending upon how many show up (this could be open to other than just the SSS site too...) but a fee of $15-$20 per person would be about average. I would need to know ASAP to clear it with the base commander... and here is the best part - it is located just off the 405 frwy and the 605 frwy right near Los Alamitos / long beach airport area.... These pictures show the houses in the background... 35 acres is a lot of room and we wouldnt be bothered, and parking is a plenty! Julien has seen it.
  5. after owning billet, I will never go back to chrome... hell even my marauder wheels are forged...
  6. this should not be called a socal g2g... socal is just too damn big... from my house to the IE is 100miles... ONE WAY!!
  7. trust me, there will be enough BLING in my engine compartment... people wont miss a $40 filter... LOL... I'll have over 25k in the engine compartment alone... just out of curiosity how much for a REAL CF cover? with black screws?
  8. i get to start polishing mine as soon as i put them on... youre crazy to swap your wheels... for the longest time they were my favorite on the site..... until i got mine...LOL...
  9. i see you counter sunk the screws and flamed the edges, well from what i can see... I need one in CF... but when the time is right im gonna hit up my boy Artie... only thing i would have done a little differently is put a 1/4" foam gasket between the plexi and the box... to seal it...
  10. yea me either... even though I posted what i said above... i would not have even gone to lunch with her... i was simply making a point about attraction... Love is not what you feel only matters to you. It's what you do to the people you say you love, that's what matters. It's the only thing that counts.
  11. ok, am I like the ONLY one who saw terminator or even the matrix?? lol
  12. why the hell would i want to hang out with any of you??? LMAO... and what on earth would give you an indication my truck would be finished by then?? ooOOOooo.... crazy idea, part two, i could rent a furd f150 and join you guys!!! we could install my spare n20 setup in it and have some burnout contests.... and lastly, the last few g2gs were in OC... why not move north a little?? santa monica FTW!
  13. BJ's FTMFW!!! ATTRACTION is in our basic human nature... period. understand it is OUR culture and society that deems MULTIPLE partners is wrong... our basic chemistry doesnt know the difference, only the way we are raised from birth tells us what is right and wrong. In many countries it is common and accepted to have a wife and a mistress(s)... in the animal kingdom males mate with many females in more species than not... and certainly not the same female for life, that is the exception in some cases and certainly NOT the rule... and just because you LOVE someone doesnt mean the attraction part of your brain is turned OFF... as guys we have it in our DNA for the general rule, we can love someone very much, but still want casual emotionless sex... sex to most men is not the same as it is to most women. the only part that 'society' would deem unappropriate is the exchanging of phone numbers...
  14. +1 for truck of the month +1 for psycho of the month
  15. Kieth thanks for stepping in... come on guys... you have both been members for a long time... whats the point of a pissing contest...?? keep it on topic and keep it friendly... dont make us bad guys by handing out warnings... 'nuff said topic will stay open for now...
  16. wow, i wondered how long it was going to take before someone ruined this car with oversized wheels... whats the point... lame... 20's sure... 22's is pushing it... 24's??? looks almost like a donk! 2009 Challenger - 60k Paying dealer overage cost - 10k putting 24" budget wheels on it - speechless
  17. i think you should check your facts on color, picture, and motion... there has a been a ton of upgrades on LCDs.... I had a budget of 5k for a new flatscreen about 4 months ago and I compared LCDs and Plasmas for several weeks and went to several stores... it was between a pioneer plasma and a Samsung LCD... i choose the LCD... lots of technology has changed with refresh rates... basically it boils down to what look best in person and a rock solid warranty... plus plasma has a burn in potential... anyways, my first intention was plasma all the way... but after a ton of research i reluctantly switched... and have been 100% satisfied.
  18. I have a new Samsung 52" LCD... the Prosumer model... it was $3899 at best buy plus tax, 4 year unconditional warranty, blueray (ps3), Stand, and yamaha sound bar... The whole set up was about $6500... well worth it... and yea the 120hz refresh rate makes a difference... something to consider is that most TV doesnt even come close to the 1080P broadcast... at most it is 1080i which is comparable to 720p... it will take awhile before 1080p becomes standard broadcast... if ever...lol
  19. Hey.... I want to be sponsored.... heh. yea I am known as the sponsor whore on this site... I have a grip of sponsors, but like the others said, it is NOT easy, you get a lot of NO Thank-your's but like chase said... i had to get my truck to a level on my OWN dime before i was even considered for sponsorship... I won truck of the month over at PT.net along with CFT here without any sponsors. Once i submitted my truck to truckin' they liked it and ran a picture, i then established a friendship with the editors and told them i wanted to build a super truck (in progress) and they said they would cover each MOD with a write up in the magazine... so armed with that I approached many vendors... It took tons of phone calls, dozens of complete truck write ups and a lot of patience... But like Rob and Chris said, rarely is stuff for free. I had to make deals with a lot of my sponsors... here is my list thus far... Dynatech LT headers Prowheels Baer Brakes front/rear Autometer gauges (3) Aeroforce Gauges (2) Socal Diesel pod Belltech - complete suspension + shocks and drop NX Nitrous kit* Caltracs Performabuilt 4l80 Billet transmission PATC transmission swap parts CK Performance Billet trans parts Coast Driveline and Gear Abear Valve/Coil covers ARP Fasteners Magnuson TVS 2300 Various motor parts Alky Control Meth Kit ZD Motorsports paint and body and more pending... But when you see the final product of my truck it will blow some minds (hopefully)... and have around 800rwhp depending how much boost i want to run... I hate when people get jealous and say I got everything for free which is NOT the case... i originally dropped 35k into my truck before even 1 sponsor... and most of my sponsors i paid cost on the products, yet I have to have THEIR sticker or logo on my truck, which looks lame (I'm old school i like a clean sticker free truck), and I also had to sign agreements on each of these as well as magazine/catalog agreements... in addition to if a sponsor calls and says, hey we want to shoot your truck for our upcoming catelog... and forget it being a daily driver, hell I haven't driven it in MONTHS... and certainly wont be able to drive it daily... I wont ever be able to just park the truck and go shopping at the mall, it will get jacked or someone will ding it or even hate on it... i cant drive it daily as cops seem to notice a 80k truck with 800 hp... it is basically a ticket machine. So don't think a sponsorship/trophy truck is all cracked up to what it seems... it is VERY frustrating to say the least. BTW - thanks rob for trying to keep me anynomous...
  20. STAY FOCUSED ON THE TASK AT HAND... more guys have been hurt or worse in their home stretch because they lose site of their mission... this mostly applies to guys outside the wire. god speed
  21. i once had a large 125 gallon salt water tank... i was as much into it as i am into my truck... meaning i spent buku money on it... anyways... i once had this large porcupine puffer that was about the size of a large grapefruit... whenever i was near the tank he would follow me around... eventually i would stick my hand in the tank and he would swim over to me and i could pet the top of his head, he loved it... after some time he would swim over and sit in my hand and let me clean him, he was my little buddy... had iridescent brigh blue eyes... he never puffed up and was a very happy fish, the tank superstar... it was a sad day when i moved 400 miles away, i could not take him on that trip, i had to sell all the fish in my tank, i didnt much care about the other fish, but selling the puffer made me sad... until i went out and spent the money on booze and hookers... LOL... JK.
