    Car pics too cool not to share

    That's funny, but the audacity of those people to prop up on someone's ride like that pisses me off. Take your pictures, but don't touch. Every now and then I'll see that stuff at a car show with "outsiders" who think they can just touch or even get in a strangers car.

    Speaking of Mercedes, here's another one I always thought was beautiful, the CLK GTR, but someone fucked up with this one. $13M Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR Roadster Seized by the FBI https://www.hagerty.com/media/news/mercedes-benz-clk-gtr-seized-pictures-ryan-wedding/ That car was owned by a guy...

    I've always found the prototype class to be interesting, and nothing sounds like the old Mazda 787 running at 340,000 RPM. :LOL: I can't remember if this Mercedes was in a prototype class or not, but I've always loved the look.

    WTF is that thing running? That's enough to scare the women and children. The last part of that video sounds like the ICE is running as a genset, do you know how that car is setup?

    Muffler Question

    "Without being too obnoxious" should knock any Cherry Bomb style glass pack muffler off the list then. Not only are they excessively loud, they produce a lot of drone inside the cabin. A traditional glass pack should be thought of as a resonator or race bullet, not an actual muffler. If you're...

    Muffler Question

    What is your goal? I assume when you say "glasspack" your talking about the old style straight through muffler, which I find to be obnoxious, especially on a small low power engine, and they often produce a lot of drone. Magnaflows are nice, but likely out of your budget range. For your...

    Glasspacks sound like shit and make you an asshole, use a better muffler. :sneaky:

    Power hungry 4.0: how to give it what it wants?

    Why do you "like" where your RPMs currently "sit" with 3.73s? You're inquiring how to make more power, which tells me you're not actually happy with your current setup, but you seem to like an arbitrary RPM number. If you want to make more power, the easiest way to do that is to climb higher...

    Power hungry 4.0: how to give it what it wants?

    Do you? Do you know the associated cost, and how does that play with your budget?

    Nashville TJ's Build - Continued

    I've seen that episode. I know how those sections came about. :sneaky: I've seen lots of guys use old fire hose as bunk skid material for boats. Are you buying a boat now? :unsure:

    Fuel Transfer Pump Recommendations

    If your just using 5 gal cans, what's wrong with a simple funnel? No batteries required, cheap and easily portable. I guess the only downside is you have to be strong enough to lift and hold. If you're talking 55 gal plus containers, then I like the hand crank rotary pumps, like this one from...

    Distance wise I can be downtown Mooresville in under an hour. Work usually takes me there weekly. If it was tomorrow when the kids are out of school I probably would have gone just to get out of the house.

    Same here. I remember the first time I heard a modern diesel truck running, it sounded like a gasser and I was like 🤫, listen to that... you can hear a fart next to a modern diesel. :LOL:

    Nope, but I will. After years of riding loud, I really value mufflers now, so don't expect big numbers from me when I post. :sneaky:
