Yeah....might need three parachutes on that deal. I'd suggest a crewman picking up the time slip. You may be a bit busy putting the flames out on your fire suit

What are you saying? You have not figured out what they are yet!!

Well, I'm changing fuels on mine. Got tired of paying VP $1000 for a drum of C-16 blower gas. Feel like they stick a gun in my ribs.
So I'm changing pistons/rings/pins/buttons/camshaft and redoing the fuel system. That'll really $how them

Paul S/Qjust remembered I need to call Will and get some ceramic bearings for my wheelie bar wheel...outa be worth .05 and 4 mph for sure ...
January 11, 2013, 12:07 AM
T/D6591Will,if I buy the ceramic axle bearings then I won't have enough money left for diesel to get to Phoenix.

January 11, 2013, 05:47 PM
Will HarrisonPaul do you have a single wheel wheelie bar or double? Double would gain more then that....lol

top comp

got every thing we need for div.3 and have a whole bunch for sale

you know ,like another car,engine,trans and more(call KOFFELS PLACE in Huron Ohio)
January 12, 2013, 08:45 PM
Paul S/QWill, just a single wheel , But I can add a second wheel , if it will pick us up to have that extra bearing in there ...what about a ceramic bearing in the wind meter on my weather station, so I can get the readings before anyone else does ...??
January 14, 2013, 04:46 PM
Will HarrisonPaul, your wind meter most likely already has a ceramic bearing in it, so I don't think I can help you there... On the second wheel, adding a second wheel would create an added amount of wind resistance equal to the gain you would see from the bearing, so it'd be a wash... Lol
