  1. I acheived this effect, BY ACCIDENT, on my rig with duall 8" straight pipe exhuast. I had tore the modified tin can I called a muffler out from underneath on a off road construction site job, and when I replaced it, I installed the thing backwards. It had a perforated internal cone it it, and holy crap, did it whistle ! I went to work the next day, unknowing the issue, and all day long, whenever the turbo would spool up, it whistled like a screaming banshee... I did fix it that evening, though. No more woot wooot for me. NoWhaImSayin!!!
  2. YIAH I'm hoping to make a day trip up for it, but I won't know if work will cooperate until the last minute.
  3. I'd take you up on that, but I need another sponsor to buy me a 70, seeing as how how I missed the boat again this year...the wifey says NO MORE TOYS! :no_no:
  4. mm hmm. We were worried about that as well, but our boy isn't showing any of those symptoms...yet. congrats again; boys are so much fun!
  5. Congrats! I was once told that having grandchildren is so much better than having your own kids. it's lookin like my kids are gonna have a bunch of ddr riding buddies . Must not be anything good at night on tv I guess
  6. To quote Billy Clinton, " I feel your pain {bite lip} " :sleep: Try twins... :sleep:
  7. Great job to all who were involved. WOW! I don't know how I would react in a situation like that, but you obviously kept a level head and in the end, saved a life After a tragedy like this, I think all of us can be more careful...and full of care when it comes to seeing our fellow duners. Our group always checks on anybody we see stopped, usually for mechanical reasons, but as I've read, for medical emergencies as well! Adrenaline and competiveness have their place tearing up the dunes, but compassion towards each other will be remembered Great job again, and prayers for a speedy recovery, and for the difficulties suffered by the families involved
  8. It's definetly a lil intimidating...quite a bit I'm gonna have to learn about...but very excited. I want to figure out and understand how to "blur" the back ground, while freezing my target(like sand drag pics). All I've done so far is point and click...still haven't read the manual or shooting guide. Here's a couple I've taken: All I've tried is the preset settings, but please: make suggestions: I want to learn
  9. Great thread. Positivity We had a great year, FULL of trials, but we're are very blessed. My wife just cased it on her quad, this week at the dunes. She is sore, but nothing is broke I was able to repaint my rail this year. We had a fantastic Christmas. After almost losing him a little over a year ago, we have enjoyed watching our son grow, and play, full of life, full of personality. Work has slowed down considerably, but this allowed me to be home with my wife when she delivered our twin girls this October. They are healthy and growing, and "starting" to sleep through the night . Our year has been a great one!
  10. Awesome. Congrats! Sounds like you guys had a great year. Enjoy every minute you have with him, and try to get your sleep
  11. ^^^Phonics nothin! ^^^ I believe I can say I am fluent in emoticons No need for words, I COMPLETELY understand.
  12. That was great. Already forwarded the link to most of my contacts. I wish everyone here, taking this country for granted, could and would understand what was given to make this country so great! I appreciate the account of the men in the boats praying for that flag, and this country...something we should still be doing! Thanks for posting!
  13. Schweet. Sounds like my Christmas; had to go out and buy myself something...from my wife Congrats on the truck. I love mine :chevy: Seems I need to take a week off of work to figure out all of the new electronic stuff, assemble the kiddo's toys, and learn how to fly mine :freakin_nuts:
  14. My sister in law got me an iPod...She tries to keep me young I guess it's time to ditch the walkman I got myself my camera(Cannon T1i), pictured with my cheapo cell phone camera . Got a couple good pics so far, but it's a lot to learn My father in law got me a plane, now all I need is a GOPRO I got my boy a trampolene; we're gonna set it up at the dunes this week. Anybody else get some good sheet?
  15. Nice looking Funco Here's mine:
  16. congrats!Something fun for a job...we should all be so lucky! One of the most memorable things I've done was scuba diving off catalina for a buddies bachelor party. It was pretty darn fun! Got about 200 pics from it too. Just 1 thought, though: ...watch out for that stingray...CRANNNKKKKIE...
  17. If I had to bet, it's probably a 2 5/16 ball .
  18. I haven't even been on one, and I already know I want a couple! Problem is, the wifey says no more toys Maybe what wifey don't know won't hurt her me
  19. Glamis for New Year's(thur-sat) for Us and our dune princesses. Their first Christmas presents are pink goggles for their first buggy ride
  20. Sounds like a gummed up main jet. Maybe try pulling the carb apart and cleaning all the little holes, jets, etc. real good with carb cleaner. Sounds just like my quad after letting it sit too long.
  21. that'd be 144 gallons in my ol' bus...each way At $3.40 gal, my round trip would be $979 just in diesel Oh well, hopefully, someday, I'll get up there
  22. Sorry to hear. Great video; I'd like to have some video like that for my funeral some day... St. A looks pretty sweet! How long of a drive is that?
  23. "this is where I wanna be".....you have no idea nice vid
  24. The center bolt in the stack of leafs will hold them all together, assuming it's there and intact. Eitherway, watch your finners when you crank the u-bolts off. You'll probably laugh at how easy it was, once you get into it.
