    Fearing for a Child

    I feel like most people don't realize how quickly life can leave us. It only takes a moment. I watched a classmate drown when I was in the 7th grade. I thought she was playing around acting like she couldn't stay above water. Only when someone else started screaming for help did I dive in. I was...

    Aerocatch or Quik-Latch for aftermarket hood

    I have had the Aerocatch latches on my hood for many years no with no issues and have been happy with them. However, once you cut the hood to fit the latch, there's no going back to round latches. I haven't used the quick-latches but my buddy is using the small ones to hold his bumper on and...

    Lasik/Eye Doc's Step Inside...

    I had LASIK done last Thursday, 12/5. So far so good. I'm seeing 20/15 in one eye and 20/20 in the other. Have the halos and blurry bright lights. Eyes stung a bit before going to sleep after the two minute procedure but no other problems. Had it done at TLC Eye Center in Little Rock and paid...

    Dedicated aftermarket USP port socket that doesn't suck?

    I'd just take an old USB cable and cut one end off and run to power but there are more expensive options. https://www.molex.com/molex/products/datasheet.jsp?part=active/0847330004_CABLE_ASSEMBLIES.xml USB, DVI, HDMI Connectors | Connectors, Interconnects | DigiKey

    Rock Auto? Hard pass.

    I've had good and bad experiences with Rock Auto. Just this week I had ordered two thrust washers for the spider gears in the differential. I received one bag with two washers of different dimensions. One was correct, one wasn't. Got a refund. Another time though I picked up a spare Cobra front...

    Too Often We Forget How Precious Life Is

    We all like to think we're going to live a long life but we're not. Can't live in fear though. Enjoy what you get, not everyone was so lucky to wake up today.

    Five days smoke free... And counting.

    Best of luck to anyone who quits. Watching my Grandfather suffer and die from lung cancer when I was 12 put any idea of me smoking out of my mind. He was a pack a day guy and died at the age of 62 in 2001. Looked like a bad way to go out. Right after that, my other Grandfather (Mom's father)...

    Thanksgiving Deals on Tires & Wheels!

    I bought a set of Falken Wilpeak AT3 (285/70/17) for my truck. Very easy to submit for the $60 rebate for those. I have been looking to buy a set of Konig Hypergram 18x9.5 +25 for the Mustang. I submitted a "found it lower" request. The sales agent that I spoke to told me that rebates were not...

    Child cancer or serioues illness.

    **** any thought related to financials. My newborn son died in April, due to an infection that the doctors failed to recognize and treat despite my expressed concerns. Money, **** money, I'd give my life. Doctors don't know everything and they often miss other options. You think differently...

    Tow hook options

    I bought a cloth tow strap from Racequip, bolted it to the back of the bumper bar, routed it through the headlight panel and between the bottom of the headlight and bumper. I had to cut a bit of the headlight panel to allow enough movement of the strap it it needed to be towed from an angle, but...

    Lawn Mower Thread

    I haven't been happy with my Husqvarna mower with the B&S motor. I had to take it in for warranty service after the first mowing season for it not starting and running properly. I have used ethanol free fuel since and not had the same problem but it still takes 5-7 pulls to get it to start...

    when did you guys decide you wanted kids?

    That's how I was, but looking back I think it might be one of my biggest regrets. Maybe if we hadn't had all this trouble trying to have a kid then maybe I would think differently because I'd have a toddler by now if it had all worked out the first time. I was with the right woman, dated for a...

    when did you guys decide you wanted kids?

    I didn't know when I'd want kids until my wife got pregnant despite birth control, antibiotics reduces their effectiveness. Good financials, good house, all that jazz but was still scared shitless. Then we lost it at 17 weeks. It was heart breaking considering it was something that didn't even...

    New Racing Numbers - Experiances With Magnetics?

    I have a similar sized set of numbers that I used for autocross, never for HPDE. I always taped the leading edge, even with the lower speeds of autocross. Never felt like they stuck strong enough to trust.

    How many of you guys are going wing-less any pic or opinions..post them

    I haven't had a spoiler for a few years. I like the way it looks without. I wouldn't mind having the Steeda spoiler though. I made some metal plates with a gasket to cover the holes. You can kind of see them in this photo. The only reason I don't have one is because my wife broke it off trying...

    Hawk HT-8 Brake Pads

    Partly out of desire to provide my scanned copy of this chart, I have been wondering if anyone else has experience with these Hawk HT-8 brake pads. Last spring I bought a front set off a race team for the PBR caliper. I'm pretty new to the OT scene and had never heard of the HT-8 pad, only HT-10...
