  1. Double AA, nice rides! My uncle had a 70 roadrunner with the airplane shifter, my dad said the thing was FAST! The guy who lives next to me owns a 70 rr as well, blue with white leather interior, worth $110,000 becasue not alot of them were made with the white leather. The cudas are nice wips as well. Pitbull, why;d you sell that thing, too NICE! If I get a free pass to any four year school, my parents are gonna buy me any car I want. In other words, 2007 CORVETTE ZO6!!! :cool: :smile2:

    Yeah, don't breathe that stuff in. My son has three heads from my doing that a few years back, LOL :smile2:
  3. What to say in a public bathroom, to get some serious laughs: Yell "FREE WILLY!" Say "Hiya Goldfish." Make a bunch of OHHH AHHHH sounds, even if it's not that serious. When there is a long line waiting for a stall, leave all what you expelled during your sit-ins, this will assure you a stall the next time you need to go.
  4. Yes agreed. The Beast wasnt too bad either. It is the longest roller coaster in the world. Hunter The helix at the end is the best on the Beast
  5. SON OF BEAST!!! Went on that this past year. Great ride. Really shaky, but great. Front seat rocks. A 214 foot drop on a wooden coaster, reaching speeds of 78MPH and going over a loop. When I tell people those stats and say it was made of wood, they think I'm lying.
  6. That's what I've heard too. But, my hands are medium sized, so I can go either way, I just learned with the interlock.
  7. That's what I'm afraid of if I do the overlap. It really doesn't feel secure.
  8. Look at where Ernie's eyes are looking. :surprize: That's just not right. I thought he was straight.
  9. Thanks. I think I'm going to go try and see what my specs are. Then I'll fix em.

    Iron custom fitting. Anybody done it? I just bought the standard set of Ta7s a year ago instead of being fit. I figured that my swing can change, so why get fit for a certain lie angle, length, and so on. Stupid mistake? What do you think.
  11. We will never know the REAL truth. Lee Harvey ~ CIA ???????? Another one Area 51? According to the govt' it doesn't exsist, but it is clearly there.
  12. What do you guys think about Deep Throat coming forward? I think he did it to defend himself against the critics, while he was still alive. His identity would've been revealed at his , but he couldn't defend himself then.
  13. Real Video. They have the new on ride video, not the computerized one http://www.sixflags.com/parks/greatadventure/index.asp It's right in the middle of your screen when you get to the page.
  14. I was there for 2 days and still didn't get to do everything. I did all the coasters, but I wanted to ride them some more. I would say if you could stay for 3 days, you'll have the time of your life (at least without golf in it. When you go on a golf vacation, that's a different story). I rode Millennium force 5 times, twice in the front (best seat on the ride BTW) , twice in the back, and once in the middle. I also rode it at night, when you can't even see the track. The wooden roller coaster they have, Mean Streak, is awesome, they have a stand up, Mantis, another launching one, wicked Twister, and an inverted one, Raptor, which is awesome. You go upsidedown 5 times. Ride in the front on all of them, especially Raptor, because you'll be able to see the track the best. If you don't sit in the front of Raptor, you won't see anything at all. have fun.
  15. Seattle moved to the AL east?.... Go White Sox... My bad. Sorry. AL west is what I meant. Now I feel like a fool :whistle: White Sox are doing crazy this year. Watch out for the Twins though.
  16. Followed construction on that one as well bedore it opened in 2003. I also rode that one this past year. It is a great rush. It doesn't have the hill at the end of the large drop though, and that's what really gives you the "air time" (period of zero gravity similar to what astronouts feel in space; when you weight nothing). Another great ride at Cedar point was Millennium Force. That is more conventional. It brings you up 310 feet then drops you at 92 mph through many more hills and over-banked turns. That is still my favorite roller coaster.
  17. Thanks guys. Regrip I did myself, it was easy! I didn't change the shaft. The day after I posted that, I was hitting the ball great. Thanks again
  18. What is there to do in Arizona? Looks like thats our vacation this year. I asked what we'll do for 7 days, and I got no response. It looks like one big desert. It looks like we're flying into Las Vegas, so I told my family to leave me there.
  19. Baseball, I love to watch. Hate the Yankees, and I mean HATE em' :finger: My favorite team is the Seattle Mariners who are curently 7 games out of 1st place in the AL east. My favorite player is Ken Griffey Jr. Knock on wood he doesn't get hurt again. Hockey is also a great game to watch. Don't play it, i'd like to, but i love to watch a fast paced game, and fights on the side is also great :surprize: That about does it. I don't like to watch basketball (I'll do a NCAA bracket every year, last year I actually won my office's pot, $654 and bough my TA7s with it). And football is just annoying. When you can weigh over 350 lbs and play a sport, you know it's not a sport.
  20. I'm a freak when it comes to roller coasters. So when I heard that the tallest roller coaster in the world was going up in NJ, I was estatic. I followed the construction from last July, to the opening this past weekend. Now, I must say, this thing was nuts. What is it? Well, if you look to the left, you'll see a picture I took while I went up there. Was it a long Haul? Yes, but well worth it. It's at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, NY, about 60 miles south of NYC. It's called Kingda Ka. Wierd name, I know, but you have to ride it. First, you sit in these large bucket seats, and a harness comes down over you. You creep out to this long strech of track, that leads right straight up. How will you get there? Launch speeds like you wouldn't believe. You go from 0-128 mph in 3.5 seconds, yes, that stat is right. That's got to be one of the fastest accerating things (besides planes and spaceships) on the earth. Your face is just warped by the speed. Then you head straight up the 456 foot tower, twist, come over the top, go straight back down, twist 270* to the right, then go over a 160 foot hill. It's over in a moment, but you can see the Atlantic Ocean on the horizon. That had to have been the best ride ever. Watch the video at http://www.sixflags.com/parks/greatadventure/index.asp That link will bring you to the park home, then scroll down until you reach the Take a Virtual ride icon, click, watch, and want to ride it. Enjoy!
  21. Trump, being the guy he is, wants to rebuild the world trade center to it's former glory. He says that the proposed freedom tower is "a disgrace," and by building the terroists "get what they wanted." If the WTC was built back to the way it was, Trumpsays it shows "strength and power of the US." By all means, I think this should be done. It will show those jerks that it doesn't matter what you do to us, we will prevail in the end. At the same time though, rebuilding them back will, in my opinion, make people forget what happend on that day. Two buildings that look the same as the ones before will make it seem like it never happened, so in a way, I also like the freedom tower. But, the design and the way the floor plan is (offices only up to 70 stories, steel skeleton after that up to 1776 feet) makes the thing ugly and unpractical. I don't know. If those jerks never did this in the first place, we wouldn't have this issue.
  22. I have a question too. If you want a club redone, do you take the shaft off to send it, or do you send the whole thing?

    How much does reshafting a club cost? Just wanted to know. I'm looking for a new shaft to give me a lower tradjectory. Oh, how much does it cost for a regrip? Better yet, how can I do it myself?
  24. Thanks Fixed it. I found that I stood up at impact. After practicing staying down on the shot, I'm hitting the best iron shots of my life, crisp, far, and a little right to left movement on them. I'm so happy right now :cool: Thanks again
  25. Thanks guys I was just looking at those swing sequence pics golf digest puts out. I noticed none of the pros have a right knee flex, always stiff. After seeing my PGA pro today, I found that the reason I was not so accurate in the past few rounds was because I was developing a shoulder drop. My left shoulder would dip in the backswing, causing my body to be all messed up at impact. Got it fixed before it became a habit. Thanks again.
