I can do that. But it won't be until I get home tonight. Just remember I wasn't using a tripod I was just handing out my window so 96% of those pics suck big time...don't worry, it should snow at least once more and we will find a well lit lot for some sweet snow drifting pics.

you can definitely make money doing this, but for me its not worth it. i dont like to owe money and the benefit isnt great enough to make me what to change that.

glad to know there isn't some retarded fine print that would penalize me for canceling it as soon as it was paid off. i *hate* having more than 1 CC.

guys, I'm brain farting really bad, my buddy and I just watched a video on Rallying and he asked me what the noise was from the exhaust when the guys would rev it to build boost, I know we call it a 2 step on our cars, but whats the real name for it on the rally cars? Don't know why the hell I can't remember it right now

close Tim, there is another term for it and it's ticking me off that I can't remember it!

im pretty sure it also works when the car is in motion to keep the boost built up when you let off the throttle...ugh. My brain has quit I believe because I was just talking about this the other day with someone.

Doc, you're thinking about antilag but you're not thinking of it in the right terms. The method is used to keep the car on boost when the throttle position is low or zero.

Thanks Alex, I knew I wasn't exactly right on defining it, but I hate not being able to answer a simple question I should know.

unfortunately the cadillac forums are even worse in some ways. there is such a dearth of technical information, it's not even funny.

Paul, that's the video that he watched with me the other day on streetfire that made him want to ask the question today. Funny.
