    Another interesting few days of developments. I do think Trump is running out of time to put up or shut up so to speak. My brother did send me a link to this executive order and asked if I remembered it. I honestly don't, E/O's in my opinion where always a way for a president to be a dictator but easily reversed by next president vs a law that had support of congress.


    We'll see though if this has any merit or impact on the current state of things. https://www.whitehouse.gov/pre…e-united-states-election/

    As to the brake upgrade, unless you just have some money you want to get rid of. Put in an order to DDM for the Hawk 5.0 brake pads. There are very few out there that drive their Sling harder than I do and I have never felt the need to step up to a big brake kit.


    I'll have to email and see if I can change it. Did the ceramic as I heard they were good pads already, but obviously they were referring to the 5.0 ones maybe? Thanks for the heads up!

    Ok a few more...I partially blame my buddy who dropped of a bottle of bourbon from his latest batch.


    DDM got some love. Almost a whole lotta love as I stared at and read about the quad conversion that is $600 off right now.... Realistically...my brakes are stock so some sort of upgrade for them has been on my list for awhile. I like the hood vents and although it will be a scary install I'm hoping it helps a bit with hood lift/movement/heat? I also stumbled across this pad for arm-rest when trying to go through every on sale item. Looks cool and I do drive with one arm resting here all the time anyway.

    The wife and I are going to a White Elephant / Ugly sweater party in December with some slingshot friends. I think these will make some good gift exchange items and I bet you can tell which $20 item I picked out....women


    Ok I'm done....wallet needs to recharge a bit! Gotta pick up some small things for the wifey for Christmas...but like I told her any money you would of spent on me I did already on the sling :thumbsup: Hoping you all got some sweet deals yourself!

    It's interesting to read all of your thoughts on this, thanks for sharing! When I first got the sling a buddy told me when I asked him about exhaust and CAI if I was ever going to boost it to save my money. Still some of the best sling advice I got to this day.


    The wife and I would probably debate this, but the electric blanket we added this fall is kinda BS. Probably better than nothing but with the air flow it's like a parachute. Picked up some of those thin seat warmers I can put under my seat covers to fix this but haven't done them yet!

    Ok, I saw some in the DDM Black Friday thread already....but what else did you all buy for your slingshot today that was on sale?


    Two things that have been on my list for awhile got ordered today.... 1st Tric LED was having a good sale so I picked up the chasing wheel lights, halo rings, and night rider bar. The halo rings were not on sale, but saved over $200 with the BF pricing! RevDynamics also has a sale going on so while I went there for wheels I saved $200 off a set of the RideTech coilover shocks. It was a big debate for me between these and the DDM ones and the fact I could get these with the red spring over chrome shock and the single tube design... the RideTech ultimately won out. I went with sport settings out of the box so curious from any who have these what their thoughts are. The goal was more about cornering and rear traction then it is about ride height as I like where it's at now!


    I'm still on the hunt for a pair of wheels but have 2-3 that I've picked out and can't seem to find any deals on these. I'm kinda set on this one if I can get the spokes in a yellow to match the sling. I also like that they come in 20x10 for the front and 20x11 option for the rear to go a little wider on that rear tire. I emailed audiocity this morning, but probably busy as no reply back. The one time I called the rep didn't seem like he wanted to make a sale so I didn't buy. The hunt continues!

    Predict IT is a website where you can literally put your money where your political thoughts are. I found it at the end of last year mostly as they'd advertise on facebook with being able to bet on how many tweets Trump would put out in a weekly period. The site works buy buying contracts from .01 - .99 cents that all either resolve yes/no and pay out one dollar when resolved. With tweets and Trumps rampages on twitter at times you can only imagine the swings. Long story short after some serious ups/downs, I built tracking feed in .sql to track twitter tweets and a database that was good for $2-3k in these markets a month. My honey pot dried up in June of this year when Predict IT pulled the tweet markets.


    I left a grand in my account to bet on Trump winning along with some state senate seats. At one point on election night I was up 2k, so pulled out 1k out of my profits at the expense of 4k in earnings if I waited till it resolved. That said I'm even no matter what...but really hope your right BigDog as I'm down $600 at the moment but if he turns this around that's a 4k payday towards a future quad conversion! You can buy Trump winning the election right now for as little as 11 cents in some markets. $100 x .11 = 909 shares that would pay out $909 when resolved minus 10% fee when you take that profit. No fee if you contract is a loss.

    Sweet! Love hidden compartment furniture! I have a flag with a hidden spot. It has a magnet lock on one end, then slides about 1/2 way on rollers to reveal a hidden compartment. Not rifle size, but few pistols n mags will fit. One day when no kids running around the house maybe!


    got these in the other day, now waiting on my speakers to come it. looks like they will be a bit of a pain to install. either remove the rear deck or remove the back storage panels.

    Got the same ones sitting here in a box. Would love to hear how your install goes and any tips/tricks you learned along the way. Went with these for speakers and hoping I can make work with stock front speaker spots and then two in the humps but we'll see!

    Does PA have a system like we do here in CO where you can put name/address in and "track" your vote? I still don't know who it was counted for if any of the switching vote claims are true, but you can see when I got mail in ballot. How I didn't send it in and then my in person voting on 11/2. Yeah yeah I know, was probably supposed to mail it in on voting day and then vote in person and claim confusion, but I didn't do that LOL

    I've gone through probably 5-6lb of the stuff, but dang if I honestly can't remember what strength it was. Black bag is about all I remember.... They sponsor a lot of shooting matches and when you register for a match you get a goodie bag sometimes. My shooting buddy doesn't drink coffee (crazy i know), so always gave me his that came in that goody bag! I really like it. I had to use a scoop less than I would with folgers as it's definitely stronger and a lot more flavor. I drink about any black coffee though for what it's worth...

    This took longer then it should have to get done...but I'm a cheap ass and at 1/2 the price I could wait for them. I do think they did a good job just going off photo of my DDM coolant tank! Taking the sling to my buddies tomorrow and bringing his "project truck" for a garage swap so he can help me with the turbo install. Will be taking my time as no rush with the weather but so very stoked to get this going!


    Didn't he take on the NY crime mobs and win? Pull NY through 9/11? Yeah seems to be off his rocker a bit these last few years, but eh so is Biden so about even there...


    With how the other side has responded to the whistle blowers, council members on different voting commissions, etc.. there is no way I'd let Rudy disclose my info with how unbalanced the media is right now...That's another question I have. Do democrats see that bias? I'm tired of hearing he's only president elect trump is the president to justify their softball questions. Is this what were in for, 4 years of the media making everything Biden does out to be bigger and better then it is while downplaying any mistakes?
