    Bangkok ladie boys or dudes who cross dress? Knock yourself out, I know what SVTP jerks off to and let's just say there is no hope for us.

    Essex was expanded to handle the extra capacity. This has been planned for awhile.

    HVAC techs in TX

    Seems to me..... That the union should be able to help you find a company. Isn't that what they are supposed to do?

    06 FGT goes 310mph in the standing mile

    I wish. It's not the weight but the aero. 700whp is good for 200. You need around 1000whp for 250 plus craploads of aero. Even with 1000whp, you wouldn't get over 220mph in an S197 without lots of aero.

    06 FGT goes 310mph in the standing mile

    They break the classes up by vehicle type (car and truck in one class type, motorcycles for the other) then the classes are divided based on drive type (2wd vs 4wd) and transmission type. Groups can request a custom class though. If they were part of a custom class, then that could explain the...

    06 FGT goes 310mph in the standing mile

    US Mile rules don't have anything for a street car class, so that is something the owner came up with or a very custom class.

    06 FGT goes 310mph in the standing mile

    No idea, but at any speed over 200mph depends more with aero than power. That car slips through the air effectively. My hp should be good to 250mph, but the aero of a brick. Anything over 200 will be a struggle. The mile has been the only goal I've been trying to build the car for. Much of it...

    06 FGT goes 310mph in the standing mile

    Need to pull my wheel sensors so I can hit up the Texas Mile. I'd just worry more about qualifying for the driver classes than actually winning anything. Pretty sure I can hit 200 (180 comes quick but that hard limit is like hitting a wall). You have to qualify at the lower speeds before they...

    615HP - 7.3L MEGAZILLA Crate Engine is Here!!! | PRI 2022

    A little boost to this monster...I can't see why it shouldn't purr at 14psi. Right around 1200hp, I'm betting. Iron block, completely forged bottom end. Seems feasible.

    Fusion breakthrough: break-even met and surpassed.

    Thorium salt reactors make the quest for fusion pretty much irrelevant. If we could only convince the feds to let someone build a full size prototype instead of other countries beating us to the punch because of some silly moratorium.

    What determines stft during open loop?

    I'm not a new edge guy, but there is always a modifier for cold starts for open loop on fueling and one for spark. You need to find those tables to correct for your setup.

    Low Pressure Drop Across Fuel Injectors

    Voltage of the fuel pump is derived from the duty cycle. A duty cycle of 1 should be 12v. 11.88 should be ok. How does the fuel pressure look at idle and mid rpm?

    Brittany Griner pleads guilty to drug charges

    Seems a bit unjust to everyone in the US in jail for marijuana or other simple charges.

    Wifi - Extender Guru's

    I've run fiber in open outdoor wire trays. But, I can't say how well the cable will hold up to long term pole mounting. Rent a trencher, you only need to go 2 inches or so deep. Make sure to buy burial rated fiber. Install a couple fiber underground posts. Hire a terminator or buy a kit and see...

    Recommend me a car

    For me, a stock Accord fits fine for a DD. I keep the weekend toy for the weekend. It isn't a performance thing, it's just I've gotten to like the way they look and have plenty of power to merge with traffic.

    Oi! You there. That's a bit cheeky innit? You better keep your balderflips all tight or you might just get your limery floxed.

    Hydrogen Save ICE Thread?

    Trucking has supported hydrogen for awhile now, but it still lacks good infrastructure. It's best suited to day haulers than otr. Not many Lowes, Flying J, etc., offer the filling services, if at all. As for us little guys, unless the refiners are willing to pay for station upgrades, then it's...

    Hydrogen Save ICE Thread?

    Good luck to them. The lack of infrastructure is worse than the lack of infrastructure for EVs. Takes oil and gas to make hydrogen as Sid asked. Every "solution" to getting rid of oil and gas relies more and more on oil and gas.
