Ah, you've been busy with Your New Toy. Congrats-, your going to have a blast off road......and your on the right track no doubt....... It blows my mind, when I see someone buy a 4WD, then lower the fkr, with low profile wheels, WTF- only in the Congo of So. Cal....... Sounds like you've covered every aspect of Custom Modifications to Your Tacoma, Kudos to ya'......... reminds me a helluva lot of my Younger Bros, when He was alive. He'd buy a new truck every year from 18 to 37. He never failed to add every single after market item he could, et al. From 'Fox' Lift Kits, to engine Chips, to boost his HP; and often have a nice hot rod, to go with it, (Corvette's), ......... Is another Sports Car in the Future, part of your plan......??? You've got to post a Pic Up when you get the Tacoma completed, damn I'd love to see it..... Hey, hey, fluorescent glowing chutes, great idear........ I meant to ask you, and I know you once told me, "What is the Max Altitude your Rockets have reached", and what do you use to determine your rockets altitude........ I get this Visceral of one of your Rockets flying by the ISS, while creating a splash on the moon......!
Rob....my personal best is 25k, but 100k is my bucket list. Only one place to do that....its a launch held every year at Black Rock called BALLS. http://www.rimworld.com/balls24/home.html These are your kind of people Rob, lol! Several types of altimeters used.....barometer, accelerometer and now GPS.
A worthy goal...... good stuff Tom..........I actually saw a really xlnt Documentary a couple weekends ago, on the guys who shot the 1st home built rocket onto the verge of space, in 2011; at Black Rock, and yes, my kind of place, since they won't allow as much at Rancho Mirage Dry Lake Bed......(last I heard)....... Here's the story- with its Video..... http://www.gizmag.com/qu8k-rocket-derek-deville-100kft-micro-prize/20119/
At an average of 75 pitchers per game the Yankees aren't holding well either. I'm just hoping Richards has a good game because Dellin may have given up this game to Lindor.
No doubt, and Thanks for the Link....... I used to have an Aunt, Uncle, and 4 Cousins, who lived approx an hours drive to Black Rock. As Kids (<18), and not a damn thing to do in town, we built our own bombs, pipe bombs; anything we could blow up; out in the Barren assed Nevada desert.........and no one seemed to care..... My 1st experiences with utilizing concoctions of explosives, or rocket fuels, you could say...... Altho' my Uncle worked for a Mining Company, and His Son's often stole a stick or two of Dynamite, back then......and he never missed 1 of 'em........
Indeed, here in So. Cal. the Halos don't seem to have what it takes, to win in PS, if they get there.......which is looking more unlikely by the day... tho' I was hoping the halos would slow down the Jays, instead of making 'em look like World Series Contenders........
Drew fails again, Drew on team that's on Cashman, Drew in the lineup, that's on Giaradi. What a pathetic situation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
