Drew -- nice shot. I like the short depth of field. I recognize the bubbles on the left side from problems in developing -- did you do this one yourself? Any more details?

Ury, that pic of the extreme left is terrifying. you should warn us before you do that. Now I'm going to have nightmares about those hippy freaks. Worse that Jason and kruger combined.

Oh, and did anyone see the mythbusters show where they tried to split a barrel? They couldn't. They tried all kinds of things, but couldn't get it to split. Their conclusion? Urban myth, busted.
Obviously they were completely wrong and this board is right, right?

Let's try to remember that "Mythbusters" provides entertainment, not scientific value.

According to the trailers on the DVD I have of the movie, Newman had never held a cue before the movie started, but with instructions from Mosconi for a few weeks, he could easily look like a skilled shooter. My GAWD! Can you imagine the bad habits NOT learned if you were a virgin to the game, then had Mosconi as a teacher??? Gleason was a true lover of the game, a good shooter in his own right. Rumor has it Gleason took money from many a wannabe Shark who thought he'd found a fish.

Truly, a stupid person. So is it a pic of a pic? Ya lost me.

Btw-Has DMoney invented a way of cleaning the inside of his wheels. Because I have a hard enough time keeping the brake dust off the outside of mine. Also, I was under the impression that wheel openings aided in brake cooling.

Function follows form for this crowd; performance has nothing to do with purchase decisions with the target audience of this wheel. It's all about the show.

Do you ever look at dubs and think, "Now those can really get good air flow to the brakes!"


And I don't care if it IS made with Sea-World Aquarium grade Lexan... I bet you that these will have a high failure rate if they are exposed to frequent track workouts.

I'm not sure what a dub is, but I get your "drift". Heehee.

Oh-and here's a pic of some poor girl who fell off her bike, posted just because this is a pic thread.
