  1. Your Flux Capacitor is discharged - It's not getting the requisite 1.21 Giga Watts. You should be able to get one at any local Auto Parts store... z Action©Sports
  2. I wouldn't worry about it. When they grafted my leg I ended up removing most of the 200 plus stitches myself. Just make sure to keep the wound clean and air it out for a few hours a day and you should be fine. Z Action©Sports
  3. You may be correct. It's been about a year since I moved from Seattle - haven't competed in the IDPA since. The gun passed inspection at the time anyway. Edit: Just checked the rule book - ESP category weight restriction is 43oz Action©Sports
  4. Give it a shot if you ever get the oportunity - the fit and finish, feel, and accuracy are unmatched. I still wouldn't drop that kind of money on a gun though - all my money goes to motorcycles . I have a Springfield Loaded Operator - probably put 8-10,000 rounds through it and I've had absolutely no problems with it. It's comfortable, accurate, and durable, and it has spent a lot of time on rainy Seattle IDPA courses. I used to shoot a lot of that dirty steel cased Wolf ammo - never had a single problem with that ammo either. It's dirty as all hell but it was really good for IDPA type stuff (i.e it was slow and cheap ) Action©Sports
  5. Ever tried a Les Baer or an Ed Brown? Some of the sweetest 1911's out there. Of course, they cost a freakin' mint but, when you pick one up you know where that extra money went. Action©Sports
  6. You got a damned nice shot though Action©Sports
  7. Camera suits don't compensate for poor flying ability - it actually takes a lot of practice to fly a camera suit correctly. For someone my size (6'4 230) they help a lot while doing tandem vids. If you decide to get some wings, make several jumps without your camera gear and figure out what you can do with your new tools. Most people who put on wings for the first time have a constant slow turn in one direction or another. It takes some time to figure out how to control all that extra material. Peace, Z Action©Sports
  8. Never tried that one. I started out with a blow switch but, I found it was rather difficult to tell how many shots I was taking. They certainly work, I just didn't care much for the feel.... Action©Sports
  9. You don't really need to be a hot RW flyer to fly camera. You shold be a pretty confident belly flyer though. You should definitely work on 4 way before moving up to larger formations. It gives you a chance to learn how formations move and how different transitions/formations effect fallrate and position. Always watch the dirt dive as well - you should know the jump as well as the participants so you're prepared for the transitions. It's just as important to know where -not- to be if you know what I mean. I've taken out some 4-ways before - can't say I've taken out anything larger. Falling through a 12 way is not a good thing - think of all the shit you have on your head and how bad it would be if you slammed in to someone beneath you. Not a good thing. I'm sure it was an honest mistake but put the shoe on the other foot. Camera guys falling through formations, well, I think you can see how that might piss some people off...... I wouldn't give up camera flying cuz of one dude though. Just work on your belly flying - find a new 4 way team and see if you can film them while they're just starting out. Often they'll pay for your slot even if they know you're just starting out. I did that when I first started and it was a great way to learn...... Peace, Z Action©Sports
  10. Do you have giant hole in your basement yet? Action©Sports
  11. Well, if you can't pick up a chick acting like a serial killer...... Action©Sports
  12. And the not so good news..... http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20060912/ap_on_go_ca_st_pe/motorcycle_safety Action©Sports
  13. Perfectly safe - done it many, many, many, times without so much as a scratch as have thousands upon thousands of other skydivers. It certainly helps to look at your alitmeter, or perhaps even look out the door before you go......remember that basic stuff they taught you during your first day of training? Action©Sports
  14. It makes absolutely no difference either way. You could ride down the road with straight pipes, a raid siren, an air horn, flashing lights, and a freakin disco ball, and some retard would still managed to plow you down. I put a race baffle in mine. Loud pipes or not, people are still too preoccupied eating lunch, talking on the phone, reading the newspaper, or beating their kids, to pay any attention to what's happening on the road.....

  16. It makes me wonder some times - I was out riding with a couple of buddies the other day and we had just pulled off at a rest area for a quick break. Here comes this lady driving on the wrong side of the road at about 10 mph in a 45. Then she just stops in the middle of the lane, still facing the wrong way, picks up her cell phone and makes a call.......At first I thought something might be wrong with her car, but no. She sits there for about 3 min, puts the car in gear, and takes off, still going the wrong way It makes you wonder how a person that dumb can make it through daily life without killing herself in some spectacular Darwinesque fashion.....

    Speed!

    Nope - The self test simply resets the servo and the ECU - looks like this. It's called Top Speed Recall. It's just a nifty little feature on this thing: http://www.speedohealer.com. Action©Sports

    Speed!

    It would be rather odd to whip out a camera and start taking pictures while pushin' a buck eightyfive Not an RC51, it's a CBR1000RR Action©Sports

    Speed!

    That's just because the bike has top speed recall. And yes, it was done at the track..... Action©Sports

    Speed!

    That wasn't me. I just took the picture . Action©Sports

    Yes....Yes I do Action©Sports
  22. Just give'm a buzz. He's a really nice guy and he'll hook you up pretty quick. At least he did the last time I needed a new one. Peace, Z Action©Sports
  23. It must have been the whole "man-meal" thing coupled with the steak and blow job day that made me wonder. I don't know what I was thinkin' Action©Sports

    No Faith

    Personally, I'd have to follow L. Ron Hubbard's direction and start my own religious cult. Cuz you know, that's where the real money is. Action©Sports
  25. Steak and blow job day.....hmmmm. Guess you and your "flat mate" are pretty close friends, huh? Action©Sports
