Good job on the thread. You must be a horrible shellfish person if that thread is to be believed.

That reminds me... the pic is as small as it is because we bought this new Cannon 6D.. and those were the first photos I took with it. The damn thing came set with it's output resolution defaulted at the LOWEST SETTING! This is a 20 megapixel camera and I shot like 100 photos with it and when I opened them up on the computer... that's the res they all were stored at.

Turbocharged and supercharged like a Lancia Delta Integrale. The car just recently got modded that extreme. His youtube channel has more vids when it still resembled a Lotus more- roninexige.

Damn.... Found out today that my former employer has a stack of Traxxas RC toys... Really checked out the Rustler VXL... Awesome looking truck. More money than the ECX I was looking at, but its a lot more truck, and won't need all the mods that the ECX was going to need to keep from destroying itself..... Hmmm...

I have a feeling I will have a new RC toy before the weekend...

searched youtube... people mod those things to do over 100 mph? I don't know how you control that as it gets far away and not bash it into curbs.

Ya.... I won't be doing that... But on 2s lipo it's good for into the mid 40s... For bashing around the pasture that should do quite nicely.

Back in OKC, nice drive.

Flew passed a highway Patrol at over 90 in a short gap between construction zones. Must have been taking a nap.

I always drive very politely in regards to the truckers, giving them plenty of room and never cutting them off, no shooting gaps or tailgating, hanging back to give them room to pull out an pass when it looks like they are overtaking each other. Feel like they chatter on their radios about me because it seemed like they were obviously going out of their way to make room for me to get buy. Several even honked as I passed after making room for me.

It is Mid August and we are at 68 degrees. Unbelivable. I sure hate this global warming crap.
