That particular maneuver went into the "do not do" notebook

 

[WoundUpMarine]

[F/V First Team]

Momma, don't let your sons grow up to be cowboys

That's the long and short of it

 

[Raider Ronnie]

For my 100th post I thought I'd do something with a bang

I think your on pace for over 10K for a year.
Thats got to be some kind of record for any board I go on !

 

[MDI45]

Hey,i see the old man had a nice seat that day anyways...priceless

 

[El Mar]

Wow, did that valve come in contact with the burnt up piston?

 

[F/V First Team]

Different runs
Different pistons
But yes
Let me find some photos

 

[WoundUpMarine]

ouch, did you have the fuel pump turned up or just overloaded the engine?

 

[F/V First Team]

Ran out of air

 

[WoundUpMarine]

ohhhh yup, thatll happen

 

[F/V First Team]

I've done as much as I can with stock parts
Time to do a little... "modification"

 

[WoundUpMarine]

[F/V First Team]

Loosen up 4 bolts and we can get you a lot more power

 

[WoundUpMarine]

HAHAHAHAHAHA im thinking a something for a little less money than that!

 

[F/V First Team]

Some soft wall copper tubing and a small cooler works wonders I hear...
