Stuff like that was cool and TMS was heads above. No one else had that. Would have liked to learn more about the setup and stuff to besides the vid but the vid was awesome!


This is what I'm talkin about!! Now tell me what you guys are doing to that monster!!
That would have been myself and goldngt in the press box at Talladega Super Speedway doing a live feed on ustream. Im trying to pull it up now to link, but the video isnt loading. Yes that was one badarse day!

edit: heres the video http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/1502244

yes, i was the one typing in the chat (all the keyboard chatter you hear), Mike (goldngt) was driving the camera, which at 200mph it was tough to keep up with when it was on the tri-oval where we were.

Me too! I always thought a double standard was twice as good as a regular standard.


Now take the words out of your sig that bypass the language filters too! Just so everyone abides by the same standard.

Weird. Didn't know it was WOT all the time. As for the cam he did good - tough to follow that speed - and it sort of ads to the effect of FAST ****. Thought the laptop was posting to a thread.

More of that good stuff!

Never was a good morning thread. Was always about the cars. Or so we tried to keep it, Scott used to be on us pretty hard when we got out of line or off topic. Then in say the last 12 to 18 months it really became the water cooler thread.

I beg to differ. Thought it was a bit of both. Maybe I just don't read good.

In defense of Al it was pretty much this 'jibberish' way when he came in.

So cool you got to be apart of that.

Here's a promo vid I found that includes the tire going bad. You hit it on the good day (before) apparently.

Aren't you supposed to have TPMS sensors for run flats so you'll know that the tire is down and can get it fixed before it disintegrates? Might be dangerous without that, you might not know the tire was deflated and drive it well beyond the distance they are meant to last without air.

I have no idea bit I've had them before since my car had eagle f1s on it when I bought it. But they'll be good for my Tampa trip tomorrow at least!
