Add to that the fact that all those jokers are driving from the wrong side...  What are they trying to prove?  It's downright dangerous.

if you look you can find a link I'm sure to a DEER or 2 on the back stretch of Pocono raceway during a winston (nextel) cup race.

Pfft. Our Boss engines kill your Mustang engines.

 :aok

Wait until you see what we do with your new Coyote engine.

5.9L baby. Oooo yeah.

We're already making 315+KW from your engines in 5.4L.

Having said that, our 4.0L i6 turbo smashes anything on the table. For the life of me, I can't figure out why you Yanks haven't jumped on it.

Better fuel economy and faster 0-60 time. Our F6 Typhoons are faster than cars worth twice the money.

Dood,  Where have you been?  Why aren't you posting on the other side?

I've been pretty busy lately... I came back and flew for a couple of nights in December and I was planning on trying to get some more stick time in... but it hasn't happened.

I just haven't really had much interest in turning on my computer these days...

I've been thinking about coming back to AH, my subscription is still active... but I haven't really enjoyed it as much as I used to though.

It's hard to catch up with the Prawns and the last few times I was on the fights were non-existent at reasonable hours of the evening. The fights don't start getting good until 1am.

That used to be ok while I was working later in the day but my working hours have changed and it's not worth staying up that late anymore.

I used to check these forums all the time too, but now I never do.

I'll give it another chance some time soon.


Sluggish, it's the same story with FW... I haven't been using my computer much and I can't be diddlyed writing essays of argument over there these days. I'll stop by and see if there's anything good going on.

I'm always at work when the FSOs are on, so that's out of the question, unfortunately. That would be one of aspects of the game that I would still really enjoy.

I'll try to log in soon... but I doubt that will happen in the next few weeks... I've got a few things on that are demanding my full attention and leave me too tired to do much other than sleep.
