Since it is the offseason for most of us, off topic is OK.

It's game 7, the last race of the season with the points title on the line (this rules out F1 BTW), the Super Bowl...

Who do you want on your team?

 

I don't even like basketball too much, and he's not my favorite athlete, but MJ is the absolute best clutch-situation player I've ever seen. He's done it countless times. In racing, its harder to see that quality in my opinion, because the best drivers are so good that they seldom get in a clutch situation.

 

Its gotta be Larry Bird.

Ya know Karl, I think we need to change your nickname from "Bastard" to "Money".

'Cause *DAMN* you're gettin ready to spend some money!

Picture this: You. Driving in your soon-to-be-new-to-you Suburban all pimpy with those biz-natch wheels and boomin system in the middle of Durham. I call you on your cell...

You:"What up, Dog?"
Me: "Not much, Money. Just hangin' at the crib bein' all jackassery."

Matt, who thinks it's time to go to bed now.
(dreams of VIR in 3 days...mmmm)

 

Are you kidding?

I'm money

 

You guys crack me up. ...and yes, I voted for Scott Rinde.
Gotta give mAd pRopS yo to the NW contingent.

 

You know who I voted for...

 

I am gonna take Shultz because afterall he is "White as Rice and twice as ricey"

 

'haaay,..dirtaay, baby i got your money dont you worry say hay....'

 

Karl! You're in the lead! Woo-hoo!!!

 

Shultz for sure...

 

And after the 'Burban gets the full Rice-Shultz treatment with that mondo Bosal tip he will be invincible!

 

Do I see a can of Cafe Bustella in his future??

 

I can just about promise you all that a red R will go on the Suburban somewhere. Most likely right above the GIGANTIC exit pipe for the borla exhaust. Fortunately (?) the pipe isn't chrome...it's just really, really big.

Apparently a high flow (*single*) exhaust system for a 454 needs to be rather large.

--money

 

But ANY system, including a single 454 can benefit from a hi-flo tip!

 

I think it needs to be said that Yokohama/Advan now makes 26" duuuubz to fit a Burban. Tire size is 335/25-ZR26. I've got a pic around here somewhere... but *that* is what you need for the full bling-bling effect.

Remember, enough roll cage padding and decals in "Shultz Blue" to cage the Suburban will jack the asking price up a couple bucks. Keep that into account...

 

I think that needed to NOT be said.
BTW, after chatting with a friend of yours last week, we weren't entirely certain anyone had a machine on the market capable of MOUNTING a 26" wheel. Does such a thing exist? Most importantly... is there a way we can locate one of these devices near Durham?

 

Any of the newer, higher-end Hunter machines can do it. Whether they are staffed by someone who knows how... is another story entirely.

I disagree.
Once a bastard always a bastard. Maybe Shultz is just a high maintenance bastard.

I feel a "who's the biggest bastard in the competition forum?" poll coming on... Nah, Shultz would win too easily, making him an even bigger bastard.

Scott, who just wanted to see how many times he could legitimately use "bastard" in this post. Hey... got another one!
