I'm in Dallas, GMG is actually in Irving it's just a little hole in the wall mech-shop.. IDK bout their new shop or whatever but it's pretty common to hear stories about Richard getting drunk at his bar and acting a fool pissing off their customers, but if I owned a bar I'd so the same... I'm pretty sure he does ample amounts of cocaine and shit...

Farm truck is a beast...I think the new engine is a 620 Cubic Inch...put like high 800s at the wheel on motor and 1100 at the wheel on spray

Faker then shit! Oklahoma is the shittiest place in Merica. The only thing somewhat cool is farm truck but the relationship between the old guy and the kid is a little creepy..

I used to streetrace and will again. Everything they do is the same as it has been forever except the races, for obvious reasons they can`t do that and film it. You can street race Shawn Ellington or Justin Spearer or Sean Whiley (Farmtruck) or any of them anytime, you just got to show up.

The TV races are staged representations. The lifestyle is real. AZN (Jeff) is dating a hot chick, not Farmtruck......

This gives me wood and my 7 yo Grandson too.
Restoration addict is legit.. As far as that chick goes.. Just the idea of it of course.

Not to keen on the rest of that programming, I do love murder nova.. But the stations just ruin great ideas with a basic formula that even someone not familiar with the topic can follow along. I get the formula for appealing to the whole audience but it just leaves so much for those who actually like a specific topic and want more detail.. Just live it in real life, the story lines can be fucked but it's a better feel

The show let`s you see more detail of the race than being there. Being there you get the feel and up close to the cars and drivers, but the race is just 4 tail lights getting smaller and boring from the line. The camera lets you see a 4 or 5 second race for 30 seconds and you don`t smell like rubber.

Nah man im not im tired of those 2 fucking dick wads making accusations of something that is not true and cannot even be proven ...i come on this board to have fun and shoot the shit and vent at times...
sounds reasonable. persistent trollery becomes obvious to everyone.

a lot of posters here have medical mmj already and some have legalization. im guessing you'd be more chill if you (and others) had those protections. as long as someone's not attempting to arrange shady bullshit with you privately and you're not advertising a commercial grow, how would the site be to blame for anything.. I don't think so.

Well the military is a culture that I probably don't understand very well. If my life depended on the decisions and mental health of the guy next to me, I may tend to pay closer attention to them. That is not to say that I'd eavesdrop on a conversation though, or go behind someone's back.

If someone is 'losing-it' what do you do though, really? I suppose reporting them to a superior (in that culture) is necessary, if it may save lives. A tough call, but I wouldn't brag about, to feel better about the decision at a later date. nobody likes a tattle tell, but maybe the situation was unique.
