Event Coverage The Official 2014 Meltdown Drags #5 thread, vintage drag meet, July 18,19&20 Byron IL

Joooooeeeeeeeeeeeellll! (& "Engine Eat Crow"), thiiiis iiiiis theeeee ghooost of smaaaack taaaalk paaast..,(again), wooooo, FRICKEN WOOOOOOOOOO!!!..,the saaaame toooo yooou toooooo Suuuuuuuckaaaaaa!

 

..,hey wait a minute!, that wasn't me man! That fricken possum ate through the house wiring, and hot wired my computer, and, and he's stirring crap, even worse than the bad voices! He's, he's and IMPOSSUMSTER er er rrrr!

 

Geez Ric ... I should call you out for sometime on Sunday. I'm sure by then you'll be selling the tow vehicle to pay for all the race fuel you're going to have to burn to keep up with all the call outs. I keep thinking of the Musketeer movie with D'Artagnon setting up all the duels. How about we settle on a beer or three over the weekend. Maybe I'll run some interference between you and Redline... I would love to line up with the Sinister Stude again

 

This is on a full night's sleep too, so he can't blame sleep deprevation! We didn't even work on the car last night! I know, I know...shame on us! We're back at it tonight...

 

Thankfully it's a pump gas motor!

 

Davie, just having a little fun with a couple of instigators who went off the reservation, looked in the mirror, and not only triple, but quadruple dog dared "Bloody Mary" to show her face! Well guess what!? SHE'S BOARDING THE 410 EXPRESS TO BYRON TO MAKE THOSE BOYS DO SOME CRY'N!
Throw'n some beers back will be almost as much fun, and your welcome to take the sweat out of Sinister too.

 

Tom / Redline and I have some history from back in Meltdown 3. Looking forward to seeing my friend, swapping stories and making new ones ... 10 seconds at a time

 

I remember seeing those pics when they were first posted, and thinking. "dang that's a cool event, hope I can get there some year".

 

La Hot Rods update........ got the transfer case and tranny out of the tow rig (that was fun with a broken rod and locked up) got the front bumper ready for install(removed extra brackets) next is offer up this shiny new dist (after I get the spooge off of it) to my old tractor motor. Hope it takes it well.

Tomorrows plans tear down tranny and order parts then remove wounded engine. Hope we can get at least some brake in time before its D Day.

 

Wait a minute, your tow rig has a fragged engine you gotta fix/replace? @-@

 

Yep 200,000 plus I think it would be smart to freshen up the tranny also.
When I was closing the back door at the shop I was just thinking how many of these trannys I have done made wish I was younger.

 

LETS GOOOOOO!!!! Ya got the talkin part done old son......BWAAAHAAHAAA!!!!

 

Thanks Scott! Mebbe Santa will bring me one.....

 

Watch mean...ya never had possum belly????

 

OK, POSSUM GONE! WAS NEVER THERE CAUSE IT WAS A SKUCKING FUNCK! SAW IT MYSELF AND MANAGED NOT TO GET SPRAYED. THATS THE LAST TIME I REFER TO THE GARAGE AS "THE SKUNK WORKS"!

 

the mossburg works on those to. ask me how i know.

 

My intruder at my shanty town home shop it a black snake but we welcome it.

 

Well the new dist dont look so bad hanging behind my wonky ass upper hose (that I always wanted to change) but after a quick ohm meter test looks like it time for new wire shit.

racerx what kind of tranny behind the 12 pounds of boost I am guessing dana 60 after reading your post for the rear?

 

Well....now that I think of it....the toads have bean invading my shop! I have cleared 3 out in the last month.....HMMMM wut is up with the animal invasions??? Is it a coup?

 

After the longest, coldest winter on record and 8 days of rain and high winds that has 87 municipalities declaring flood emergencies and likely a farming disaster looming... Now animal invasions ???

I'm thinking the Mayans were right. We were wrong thinking it would happen over night.

 

Track me down at the Meltdown and you can try out the gopro.It keeps crashing my laptop though.....I don't know if a 20 minute video was too much info to handle or what...?

Cool! I was wanting to mount one on my roll cage to moniter guages and mebbe out the windshields as well! Hey I wonder if I can plug some sorta chip into yer camera and keep my info? Obviously I yam nooo puter guy....

 

You always show sound judgement Saxxon,but I must say,If the Mayans were sooo smart...Where are they????BWAAHAAAHAA!!!!

If you put your memory card in it you can just pull it and load all the video onto your computer,or you can just use mine and I can email the video to you.....as long as it doesn't make my laptop shit the bed every time I try to play the video...lol
