My mother got hit by a truck!!!!
Today at 67th and gaetz ave, my mother was crossing in the cross walk when a dick of a human was on his cell, oblivious he hit my mother as she entered the lane he was in as she walked in the cross walk.. She is ok, bruised and battered but she's able to walk. It was small truck but the fact this dick amongst other ****** words I could use hit her was on his cell and not paying attention just makes me alot more pissed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I hear that any of you have hit someone while on your cell cause you think the damn talk your doing is more importent then whats happening outside of your car I'm gonna come and you up!!!! That goes for anyone!! I admit I use my cell sometimes while I drive but damnit that cell is out the window or crushed before I let it EVER over ride my driving!!!! Thinks can be done safe but only if you use common sense as well
Maybe I'm being harsh but trust me I think cells should be banned period!!! There are other things as well, hell you could be turning your radio dial and ****** hit someone or something..
Ok have anice weekend guys and gals..
PLEASE BE SAFE, remember its a privalage to drive not a right..

Hey Ernie, Sorry to hear that and I hope that your mom is okay. I'm sure you guys have enough problems to deal with without having to worry about dumb ***** like that. Just nice to see she is alright. Have a good weekend man and hopefully e able to go for a cruise with you at some point in the near future.

Whoah, good to hear she's okay. There's no reason something is so urgent you can't either pull over and use the phone, or use handsfree. You're risking lives.
On a different note, if anyone is coming out to the Powerama tomorrow at Northlands, I'm gonna be there between 1:30 and about 5. so if anyone wants to meet up text me at 780-361-5921!

Yeah... it did suck. It was hailing little pellets.. I was so upset :P The show wasn't that great, but the Mopar guys were there. I got chatting with one of the members so I got a feel of what they're like. The one guy said he's expecting to run 14's @ ~95mph. So competition? Not with him.

sorry to hear about your mom ernie, hope all is well.
you suck. if my MBC doesnt get here soon i wont be going either. theres no point in me running with the boost cut slowing me down. and if this **** weather keeps up will they even open the track? i dont feel like driving there just to get tech'd and get a rain check...

If you want I would be able to all of that, the only thing i'm not too sure about is the PCM, but there is probably decent instruction with the kit.... feel free to ask for help, i dont mind

You guys wont see me at Castrol on May 1....Car is getting dyno tuned on May 6 in Calgary. Just put on my new ported eaton. Sorry for the bad picture...cellphone picture.
#1493
Thanks jordan, I'm just trying to decide between
Option 1: Header and magnaflow cat back
Option 2: OTT stage 1 and OTT front mount H/E
Cause right now all I have is intake and stock exhaust with no cat or resonator and a magnaflow muffler

I would recommend the header/dp and cattback first. You wont get the full potential out of the stage kit without it. Not to mention once you do put on a exhaust system you will need to get tuned again anyways.
#1495
Thanks for your opininion i think I am going to go with the header and cat back. I might order the ZZP shorty header that claims 10whp gain ( not really expecting that much ) and the magnaflow cat back that PRT has in stock and then hopefully that will make atleast some gains haha
