Great Commercial

My favorite part is "Charles in Charge". They couldn't have casted anyone better to play that guy's part.

Adam Carter's 2009 King of the Hammers Race Car


Look out! This thing is a beast! Adam will be racing the Last Chance Qualifier on Thursday, the day before the big race. Hopefully everything will work correctly and he will be in the BIG show on Friday. I guarantee one thing, no one in the state of Alabama has one of these things. 460hp?! 40" tires! Super light and an amazing low center of gravity. One of the first pictures I have taken with my new 5mp camera on the Omnia.

Seafoam


Josh and I took my Cherokee out to the powerlines to use Seafoam today. You pour it in the intake, crankcase, and fuel tank and it cleans out everything. The only bi-product is thick white smoke. But it was really windy today so it wasn't that bad. Anyway I'm changing the oil now and getting it ready for the next round of racing.

My new smartphone-The Samsung Omnia



It's pretty complicated. I'm on week two and I just finally got my email correctly setup. Not that it took me that long. It boasts a 5 megapixel camera with tons of options. It runs Windows Mobile 6.1 along with pocket versions of Word, Excel and Powerpoint. Opera Mobile for cruzin' the net. It even has a FM Radio. Music, video, pictures...all the essentials. 16gb memory. Just enough to tease you. I wouldn't call it the iphone killa, but it sure is close.

The Damn Waterworks Trails!!

We went riding today. Josh and I in my Jeep. Adam in his new KOH '09 race car. Keith and Sam in the Bruiser. Mike and his son in his new HO Razr. Ron and his son in his new Wide Open Design creation. Tommy, Josh and Casey in Josh's Jeep. We hit the waterworks trails after meeting at Keith's house. Adam showed up and I got some really good pictures of his car. I even got to sit in it. haha When we hit the trails Keith and Adam were too fast for me, they got ahead and we missed all the good stuff. Keith rolled on Ebola 1. Adam broke ANOTHER Yukon 3rd member. I guess that new GTO V8 is gonna find a weak spot somewhere in his drivetrain. At least he is starting his shakedown now, rather than a week before the race. He had to take off and rode out early. Now let me just say this..I don't like the Waterworks trails. Maybe I never got a proper introduction, maybe I just don't feel like I'm warming up when you drive down "Logjammer" immediately off the road. Either way something didn't feel right and my attitude showed it. Josh as usual was patient and always trying to help me. Super STAND up guy! I really want to be good at this but it's hard. Maybe not hard in the way bench pressing a tank is hard, but difficult to explain. I guess when your going down a hill and your front tire drops into a hole, which in turn lifts your rear tire 3ft. off the ground is best explanation of my fears. Hard to get used to.

After we left Josh and I took the Tressel trails home. Down the waterlines, up Possom Path, out the train tracks until we hit Shades Grove Rd. Then we ran the powerlines homes at usual speed. I guess this is where my talent, if any, is shown. Picking lines at faster speeds, drifting the rear end..

Nice Ride. I think I'll go back to the Waterworks Trails again right away. I don't want to give up on them yet.

Old Youtube Appearance






Listen to the end when Adam is hosting the competition. Traylor ends up elbowing a girl for a rope and a rare appearance by Cooper Roberts eating popcorn. God I miss the old days!!
