    2016 Deadhook Fiesta ST

    Thanks guys, we tuned it with vlog, so no dyno sheets. A nearly identical car (gen1 2867r instead of gen2) made 435hp at the wheels. It's similar to driving a severely traction limited shifter cart.

    My new ride

    Had to sell my '04 Tuono several months ago to put a roof on my rental. Today I was able to reconcile, bought a 2013 V4R. I love this bike...

    Bought My First House

    Finally, after months of searching and deals falling through. Found a foreclosure in Maggie Valley that someone had bought to turn into a duplex, stripped to the studs and then ran ran out of money. The bank actually paid to turn the house back into a single family and finished it, then it sat...

    New Commuter

    Well, I sold the Cobra and Volvo. Shopping around for something that got good mileage and had some space inside I settled on a Honda Fit. One week later I decided that if I can't make it accelerate, at least I can make it take the curves so in went the Bilstein PSS coilover kit, Enkei...

    That was a pathetic showing from that pack.

    For those who wish to be patriotic

    It's simple, buy American, made in the USA means something. It may cost you a few dollars more and you will likely have to search for the products but this is important, make an effort. With non necessity items, forgo the purchase, stop feeding the machine. This is not a democrat or...

    Sayoc-Winkler R&D Hawk

    Several months ago I contacted Daniel Winkler and put in an order for a custom tomahawk, well tuesday he contacted me and said that it was nearing completion. Being that I live around two hours away we agreed that I would pick it up in person so this morning I set out for Blowing Rock. It's...

    New Tomahawk

    I went to the gun show today with the quite misguided notion that I might find a deal on a PS90. Wading through the crowds I came to the realization that it was most certainly not to be and that in fact the entire trip had been an utter waste of time with nearly all of the vendors peddling the...

    The Cobra Lives

    September 5, 2010 I drove the snake to a mustang event at the Biltmore house, parked and walked around for a bit. When I returned to the car it wouldn't start. I rang a buddy that works at the estate garage and he brought a jump box, it was no help. We arranged to have her picked up there and...

    Mini-Media Room

    Finally got it up and running. I only have two recliners in at the moment, fitting anything else is going to be a challenge though. I'm running Magnepan 1.6's fed 400w each from a Behringer EP1500, SVS PC13-Ultra and a 50" Samsung plasma. I'm quite pleased with the results so far, the...

    Bought a New Bug

    Actually I've had this one for a little while but recently purchased a pug, just waiting for my permit to come back so I can go pick it up. This little bastard is a blast to shoot and fairly accurate but it throws a lot of powder.

    Advice Needed

    Besides tires how the hell do you hook 600+ft/lbs? I've been thinking of sinking some cash into the snake this winter, possibly a torque arm and panhard. Ideally, what I'm looking for is to hook at least midway through second with a better wearing and stiffer sidewall nitto or whatever...
