if you get two and make them face the opposite directions, you can actually create a small tornado in your intake system, and it seems to force the air into the car, thus acting as a turbo.. wow.. So Jazz has a bunch of these on his A8, so basically he is tri-turbo!!!
Actually, with 16 of them, it's more like a quad x quad turbo. I did it for teh gas mileage, but, yeah, the power is AWSOME, too!!! 1000mpg AND 1000whp, PLUS, I've noticed that my windows roll up and down faster, too.

speaking of cool things.. that brings me to a point.. triple x the movie also known as "XXX"

is it X to the third power?

or is it simply X times X so it would be X to the second power?

why wasnt the sequel X to the 4th?

I think with movies like that, they should do a count down to know when to stop.

First movie - XXX
Second - XX
Third - X

Shall we do another movie? No, what would we use for a title? Oh Well, let's drum up some other crappy movie.

ok, total change of subject, but....

Today at Limerock, Allen McNish was drivng the Audi R8 in it's final race. Well, he drove like a madman in traffic to get the overall win. He made Capello look like an amateur. He passed the new Penske Porsche Spyder twice in heavy traffic and they had great in car footage of how he did it. It was amazing. Granted, the Porsche is a class below the Audi, but it was still the only real competition for the R8 on the course. And Audi has already moved on to the R10!

I want to get up to that track sometime. It was a great sprint race.

Since I always accidently change topics into other things, and cuz i'm sick of looking for all these old threads to add to, i've started this one..... please put whatever you want here

it can be funny, a fight, a pet peeve, a pic of your pet, a pic of a homeless person, it can be sexual, it can be lame..... i don't really care


I'll start with the comment that is sort of based on the homeless person thread..... one time a homeless guy asked me and my little sister for money, i didn't have any cuz i don't carry cash, he whipped it out and chased us down the street, luckily we ran smack into a cop (this was downtown santa cruz, ca) and the guy got arrested


there, now bent, redgoat, panda, etc add something better

BUMP!!!!!
