MEMRACING62 04-27-2013 04:56 AM

Most of the time Im the only one on when I check in.... :(

bjuice 05-10-2013 09:51 PM

Hmmmmm I wanted to bring this post to the top.. The Forum got a little life going... I mean Bone started two threads that has produced over 875 hits as of today..some I am sure multiple Views but none the less +875 Views

I guess there is something to the old saying a long time member had as his signature.

' Think Nobody cares try missing a payment " LOL... :D

Now when I go back to stealth Mode...before wondering and posting that I am MIA...SQUINT real close and you will see me. LoL

Seriously If everyone would make a goal to get their post count up at least ( 25 ) MINIMUM in the next two weeks..I think we will see a difference here.

I am in on that! This place will always be my home, first forum I ever signed up for!
Lets keep her alive boys! :D

Scooterz 05-13-2013 10:10 AM

Agreed Harb. It is really the only forum I spend any time on. We are still a great group of people.

outlaw256 05-14-2013 09:13 AM

guys, im on 2 sights this one and the hamb. i go to the hamb because thats where my interest really lies.i love drag racing.i have since i was a little kid.but i started losing interest in it when the small shop and backyard guys didnt stand achance.and thats been a long time ago.but with the hamb i still get my drag racing and my old cars all in one shot,i stay here because this was the first forum i was ever on.and the main reason is you guys.one person on here actually saved my life not real long ago.he knows who he is.in fact i think ive said it before on here.ill stay here as long as there is a place for me to go to...

Swiley383 05-14-2013 10:28 AM

same with this being my first site also. There are some great people on here we even got into some gun talk a few weeks back. Brian and myself have been talking the last week or so about cars and guns it has been great!

Scooterz 05-14-2013 10:39 AM

You are a good man Ken. This is a good place for us... bounce things off each other & still be men. We don't need to be shamed to be men here... or tip-toe around talking about the Lord. Cars are the "Icing On The Cake"... its really about you guys that keep me coming back.

When I think of Outlaw/Ken, I think of the movie "Easy Riders" when the Harley dude tied the guy in the sleeping bag to his bike & towed him around camp while he was sleeping!! LOL!! That is Ken.... I could see you doing the same thing.

TheYellaBrick 05-14-2013 03:12 PM

'Bone & Outlaw still need to write that book !

BEAST477 05-14-2013 04:43 PM

Well lets hope things get back to how they once were. I used to spend hours at a time on here.

bjuice 05-15-2013 05:55 AM

Well guys I just passed my 10 year mark as a member of RJ. I have been the moderator /admin for better part of this past decade. I have seen people come and go . Never lose sight of the fact who RJ is. ITS YOU not a Mod,PJ or any site feature or owners. ITS YOU. The people make up who RJ is. That is why I have never had an issue with telling people " Not to let the door hit them in the a$$" If they started this site bashing crap. I never understood why a so called "GOOD MEMBER" would continue an assault on their
Own site ??? So bottom line this site is what YOU make it...your participation is crucial to the future of the site. I will be the first to say I was checking in Hidden but not posting. So now I throw in a few threads to let everyone know I am here.
I ask each of you to do the same.

I personally don't need 200 members signing in at once and posting. Our core members
Are fine with me with the occasional LITTLE ROD every now and then.

Scooterz 05-15-2013 07:37 AM

Yeah Juice- I hear ya. It is the people. We make the character behind the site. Some are here for just buisness, or need something, don't like to chat, whatever... but we are pals here. We celebrate, grieve, laugh, & protect each other. That is straight-up pals man.

bjuice 05-15-2013 12:23 PM

I wanted to clarify I was not speaking of anyone who is currently on the site.. :D

Thought I better make that Clear....lol

I am gonna text Rabbit to see how he is doing....

Also Swiley383 has been a round a little while on the forum, but I have had the chance to communicate with him off the site and he is one of us for sure.

Welcome to the CORE Swiley !

bjuice 05-15-2013 01:11 PM

I text Rabbit he is doing good, he said he is a little sore but healing..

fla1976 05-15-2013 01:16 PM

Usually I seem to be the only one on here when I look in... :?

Swiley383 05-15-2013 01:50 PM

Thank you bjuice! glad to here Rabbit is doing good.

DRTRCR22 05-15-2013 07:01 PM

I read a sign on a business the other day which says "Everyone brings us pleasure here... some when they arrive, and some when they leave..." :shock: :lol:

True. I have to be humble when thinking on this subject; because I have been on both sides... good/bad, law/lawlessness, ignorant/wise, etc... it is the stages of life that I find interesting... I think of those who have died for less than I have done. Yet, I/we are still here today (Thanks Lord). I guess it is not how we start, but how we finish this life... what we do with it.

We can be like Jodi Arias, or Charlie Sheen. Or we can be a Mother Theressa or Ronald Regan. The person you watch today & think is a complete idiot might be transformed in 5 years... you just never know.

I hear ya Scoot just for trying to get my post around 25 in two weeks ( walking the walk). let me weigh in. 1st I want to say there a 2 classifications of people. CAUGHT and UN-CAUGHT. The good Ole USA locks up more of its people more than any other country in the world ( non-violent victimless crimes ) Its about the dollar. Charlie Sheen is mostly known for Hard Partying/ Women...all he admits to. To me its an adult life style he chooses unlike Jodi Arias who is a convicted killer that premeditated Brutal murder ofher boyfriend to the tune of 30+ stab wounds a gunshot to the head the cut his throat to the point of decaping him. ....sheis EVIL. Ole tiger blood likes to get high and score whores. lol

Scooterz 05-17-2013 12:42 PM

Okay... I should not have used Jodi Arias as any part of people & behaviors... harsh example... she has special sociopath-super-bi_tch ways. Talk about a WOLF IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING!!!

But I helped you keep this thread alive Juice!! The boys are back in town.

Lol THATS RIGHT SCOOT . Good conversation... WAY DEEP DOWN I think many a men may be a little envious of ole Charlie .. Tons of money, fame,beautiful woman. The only man I know that can snort a kilo of coke in 1 night.. Live thru it brag about it and still NOT go to jail. LMAO... Tiger blood ? MAYBE SO. :shock:

I sent PJ a message to see if he would run it down for me. I tried my profile and it redirected me just like you. For some reason it did not wiope out my avatar.

I will see what he says..I will give him until mid-next week and I will call him up.

update I called PJ and left a message on his answering machine.

BEAST477 05-17-2013 04:53 PM

It's nice to see things have livin'ed up here a bit.

Yeah B it would be nice to get our avatars back and be able to change things in our sigs. Cause as nice as it was driving my sponsors car last year, it is sooo much better being back in the BEAST this year.

BEAST477 05-17-2013 05:58 PM

Yep I always heard that stuff was like a bad drug. Once you try a little you gotta have more. :o That's why I'm gonna try and stay away from it.

Man I bet. Last year I did not run the Nova at all. Now I got a lot of upgrade chassis work done it is now NHRA certified as LOW and the heaviest cert a mild steel car can have 7.50 25/4 which is up to 3600 lbs. It took alot of extensive floor brace work to get it to 25/4 but my thought process was Now that it is tore down might as well do all I can do to get the best certification I can which was 7.50 24/4

I am gonna run a compression check to see how we stand..then gonna set up 1 stage and ramp in about 3 degrees on the gear retard program between 4 and 6k this works good on the tracks I play around.
I thought about making it all muscle changing converter and putting a lot of gear in it but all motor car just will not get it done like the nitrous . The TQ curve is un-real and Flat. Plus 200 shot on A BIG CHIEF 632 is childs play for that engine.. :D

Swiley383 05-17-2013 07:17 PM

I thought about spraying my car a couple years ago and decided not to. I talked to one guy who ran nitrous and he told me it was addictive and I would not let it be at a 150 shot. Instead I put on alky for a while the had to park it until last year. Switched over to E85 when I got the car back out only ran 4 or 5 times last year and health problems forced me to park it again. I have raced once this year and the car ran great but, now I have very low oil PSI. I have not torn it down yet maybe after vacation in a couple weeks I can look at the motor.

Lol.... yes there is something to that addiction statement. Lol... To be exact you actually get use to it and it seems like the car is slowing down but the et and mph shows the same. The fastest nitrous pass you will ever make ( feel ) is your first pass...I started out running 9s in the 1/8th as a teen then 8s,7s for a long time.. Just to get in the 6s was my goal...finally got there..then it slowed down.. 6,50s was the new goal..after getting to 6.50s. 5.90's became my obsession. It took me 3 years of running 6.05, 6.01 etc.. I finally ran a 5.99 in street trim..got it down to 5.95 @ 118mph...then jumped my A$$ in a 10.5 OUTLAW car .. Ran 1 motor pass 5.80 @ 126 mph with a 1.33 60ft...Next pass was on 1 small hit and run a 5.00 flat @ 144mph with a 1.10 ft. talking about jumping in head first.. It took me over 3 yrs to pick up 3 tenths..and 2nd pass in the Outlaw car I went almost a full second faster..and we talking from high 5s to a 5.0 where the 1/10ths and Mph is a lot harder to come by. lol :shock:

fla1976 05-18-2013 03:26 AM

Like computer internet speed. After the new access, everything seems like dial up if you have to use it.

TheYellaBrick 05-18-2013 04:57 AM

We're all HOOKED ON SPEED !!!!

outlaw256 05-18-2013 05:08 AM

oldandtired 05-18-2013 05:27 AM

Speed cost money, how fast do you want to run?

As I have experienced, it's in cubic dollars. :roll:
