[preddy08]

Damn it, it was 101 degrees here yesterday. No way in hell am I doing anything outside!

[funyun]

Isn't it about to be a whole year since the start of this build

[Alkire193]

"Awhile" came and went awhile ago

[Krandall]

good things come to those who wait.

Ive been waiting four years for Preddy to be cool...nothing.

Damit man!
I'm working on the nex stage of my build, & you haven't even got this done yet???

I did a full strip, chassis blasted & repainted, Split cases stroker crank rebuld & you still haven't got this done yet?

I recon I will have my 3-plug head installed, & my custom made duals done & this still wont be a runner

Well you can "recon" all you want, but I reckon that once Nebraska decides to be the frozen turd that it is known to be, Shawn will be back out into his garage tinkering.

Why cant you buy needle bearing a-arms like a normal person.


This fucking tric trac shit's for the birds! Been going round and round with houser for weeks about this shit! First set of worm gears wouldn't even mesh up

I just had to go beat the dog because of these damn things!

Toss some needle bearings in the thing. I'm just saying, when I don't get 100whp on the dyno it will be because you keep dialing back on the good stuff.

One more call to Houser and we'll go from there. Unless I'm totally stupid these things are junk!

No install sheet, nothing thier website, nothing via google search

[Alkire193]

  it. I mean, they say that those things wear out really fast. And unless you have 10 years of seat time you don't even realize the Tric Trac function. Go needle, works for me. Anything will work better than my previous set up.

Any word on the graphics kit?

[Alkire193]

Mike and I just spoke about that early last week. He is color matching right now. I gave him the current vendor list and he is pushing for the proofs before October.

[Alkire193]

I took the liberty of checking the forecast for friday. high of 70, low of 44. GAME TIME!

So nice of you to notice the weather around here

Motor and front suspension is on the bike (with tric trac), so its all down hill from here
