Cut by grinding the thin ring at one spot and the ring would just pop off with little effort, if not as soon as it was cut.

I rattle canned my kayak camo for duck hunting. It matches the rust on my truck rims. :wink:

Seriously though, what type of powerplant that thing have?

Speed on water scares the hell out of me. My uncle had a blown 454 on his boat and I was honestly afraid of it.

600HP / 600 TQ

Nothing crazy but it will move

Just traded in my BMW X6 for a Porsche Macan. I believe this means I am now Officially having a midlife crisis.

If it makes you feel any better, my neighbor’s lawn mower threw a rock into the door window of my brand new GLI and shattered it. Not a huge deal except that a glass appointment is 2 weeks out around here. 1400 miles on it. At least it wasn’t sheet metal.

I got lucky and snagged these axles from another customer at my Tuner’s. He is waiting on an engine - 8-10 months and these axles are 4-6 months lead time.

Soooooooo, I blew up my brand new Gen 5 3.8L Kong ported and polished whipple racing Saturday night.

Gave a handful of people big L’s in the big full interior boat. But, sounds like the bearings are shot, which sucks because they are upgraded ceramic race bearings. Shouldn’t be too bad of a fix, but just sucks the car is now down. Especially when I was running lower boost on a big pulley.

Well what’d you do that for, silly?

I send it boiiiii.

Either just a faulty bearing or alignment issue is my guess. No way at the power I was running should it have failed normally.

One of my favs. I won $12K racing, so if I should be covered for repairs at least.

Street and track a 68 big block Chevelle when I was younger. Built it myself. Got 71 C10 working on now. Big block too. But it has been sitting for about a year.
