in short, i went to raido shack with the intention of getting a wireless headset for my dad so he can watch tv in silence and be able to hear it.

i came home with that and an xmods racer skyline. body kit set and a set of stage 2 motors

2 hours of putting it together with a drift motor and it doesnt drift verry well on hardwood or tile if at all.

im out over 80 bucks. and cant return it becasue its used.

Hating beer ... you people are all sick in the head.

I understand the depression. I just woke up right now (1:11 AM) as I didn't feel like doing anything but sleeping. What's the point of it all? Why do anything? All I think about is this stupid car, no one will even look at my damn books, what I'd really like to do with myself is an impossibility yet I live more and more isolated like a hitman or (shudder) serial killer. So what then, just die and get this waste of time over with? Fuck that, the bastards aren't getting me to give in. I think I'm alive out of spite. Hate and anger keeps me going when the mood swings bring me down. I'm lucky in that I project outward even when I'm depressed instead of the usual self-loathing I'm just unhappy with where I am and generally disappointed with humanity and having to be a part of their society.

Good luck, I don't have any way to really help other than some incosequential solidarity.

beer is proof that god loves us :wink:
c'mon, can you really say with a straight face that you'd turn down an ice cold corona with a lime?

Beer is pretty easy to get in Utah. Alcohol is, however, not quite as easy. State run Liquor stores (like Canada), carry anything above 3.2%. Any convenience store will have your generic assortment of Bud, Miller, Coors, etc...it's finding something palatable that's hard.

Cheer up jason, the Cobb meet is fast approaching. You'll now have the craziest Legacy in the lot.

Especially a Corona. I can drink a Bud Light, although I won't like it. Corona, no way Jose (pun intended :lol: ).

He said it has a lime with it. Lime changes the flavor from bad to drinkable.

I don't see what the big deal is with Corona. I put it in the same category as all the domestics- shwag and shwag light. Now Newcastle, Moosedrool, Summit, Blue Moon. Mythical White, several of the Leini's products like Northwoods, Bug Butt, etc., are all what I'm talkin about. I you haven't noticed, I like dark beer. :)

yeah dark beer is awesome. Ft Collins is pretty much the US capital of microbrew. we have New Belgium,(fav has to be 1554 or bier de mars) Tommyknocker, coopersmiths, left hand, laughing lab, etc.
corona is kinda inconsistent. I have had batches that were just awesome, some that were about on par with bud, and some that were super skunky.
other favs are everything from redhook, sierra nevada, and 90 shilling(favorite beer probably)

Pacifico > Corona. Ask Art.

I have an Xmods Supra. Doesn't drift at all, lol.

I'm gonna lock the rear diff and gain a little bit of controlability out of the little bugger. The stupid open rear end unloads to the inside all of the time.

It doesn't have enough power to break loose on high-grip surfaces like asphalt.

and im driving on slick grannite. how do you lock the rear. i noticed mine turns tighter to one side, but doesnt drift. and i have the frickin drift motor

I'm just gonna put superglue in the rear diff and lock it... or use grease and have a semi-limited slip.
