LOL Bill your wife is awesome. So is Tyler's and Aarons and Gabes and Joshs

Yes if anyone hasnt figured out i was the 12th wheel (aarons wife wasnt actually there).

And there werent many openings to crack a joke. And if there was an opening Bill beat us all to the punch line! LOL

It was epic. Today was not so much. Stupid lock ring on the truck of the new rear tank popped off. Long story, but the o-ring was too fat.

Oh no sorry I forgot to tell you guys that story.

Going down the interstate piddlin along and as im passing a semi 6 rice bikes, 3 on the left shoulder, and 3 in between me and the semi pass by going like 100+

They get up in front of all of us and slam the brakes on.. not right in front of me but a little ways up so we had to hit the brakes. 4 of them blocked the two lanes and had me and the semi down to 45. The semi was blarin his horn and so was i. The other two did some wheelies and all the bikers flipped us all off. I know there wasnt anything i could do other than run them over and get sent to jail for vehicular man slaughter so i got over when i could and they proceeded to slow down and zip around the semi slappin the side and high fiving. After about a half mile of this BS going like 55 being trapped by them they all rode off top speed. One of them had a go pro mount on his helmet.. must have been some dumb biker group putting up videos of their 'skillz' aka how willing they are to push death.

I was so fired up... ooo man was i fired up. But i wasnt thinking clear enough to call the cops. I didnt flip em off or anything. I just kept a straight face and was thinking how i could make it look like there fault. lol I know its bad to think that, but sometimes i want something just bad enough to happen for them for them to learn. lol

Anyways the truck thing just happened tonight when i was filling up. The vent is still pinched in the bed and the pressure must have popped the lock ring off

Wow you guys move fast!! 24 hrs and 2pages??!!!
Alex I did not realize which injectors Gabe went with until Dyno day, last I spoke with him he was talkin 160's.. I miss a lot!!

Travis is right on with my only Dyno...
My tuning is not at all current with the mods.
I do run out of oil on a hard run.
I only have 180cc 80% sticks.
I was probably lacking confidence (beer).. I aint got studs etc.

All in all I was happy to see the 400 mark last year and I might pursue more in the future ???

I was excited as He!! to see what Gabe did!!

Hope this makes sense??

Yeah everything is fine except the lock ring holding the sending unit came off.
I have to remove the bed bolts and get some blocks to hold it up at least 3 or 4 inches so i can get in at it.
$23 for a new lock ring setup. Makes me mad cuz an older friend was doing that while i was working on the vent mod and when i looked at it i didnt think it'd hold. He said "ive been on this earth almost 20 yrs longer than you. I've done a few. Itll be fine"

Guess who i called right when it popped!

At least the bolts will come out easier this time. But it frustrating when you have to do something over.

I have permanent PMS.. But I have recently developed LOC (lack of cash)

On a good note, I am currently working on D-man's (my son) truck, so I can have the fun and spend the money he has been saving for the last few years!!

Neal pulled his truck in his yard with the 5r hooked up and hasn't even un hooked if I know him.. He will call me when he is ready.

Ok the rain has stopped I got to get back to work
