  1. In my old Challenger T/A I hit 135 on a private airstrip that was temporarily shutdown.

    I haven’t had another opportunity since to open up my challenger wide body scat.

    Not a fan of excessive speed on public roads except on long stretches of desert roads

    Quoting myself because I was talking about this to my buddy and it reminded me of my highschool days. Lol

    Back in the early 90s when the toll road was and empty drag strip. I used to drop my quarter into the basket at a dead stop in my mustang, eclipse and prelude…. The eclipse I hit the limiter at 140 and the other 2 at around 125.

    I do miss being one of probably 30 cars headed northbound on the toll road back then on the way to Jesuit. Lol

  3. Anyway, question for you optics experts….
    Is this a decent thermal imaging scope, and a fair price?

    That’s a fair price for that scope.

    However, that’s a 256 resolution… that’s pretty low for a thermal scope.

    The industry recommended minimum is 320, with 640 being the recommended floor.

    But I am a NV scope hog hunter with a 120 thermal scanner

  4. Craziest game of the new year. Sleep walking will do that to you.

    Almost shit myself when Bellingham barely missed that bicycle kick

    That was amazing, it went from highs and lows. As a Madridista that was a hilarious finish of extra time

    Barca will be kicking themselves for way too many wasted chances
  5. I have a Bering Optics Super Hogster that can easily detect and identify critters at those ranges. Making a shot that far with a thermal is a whole different story. Look up The Late Night Vision Show on YouTube. Couple of East Texas guys that test and sell just about everything out there. Hell, you can call them and they’ll tell you exactly what you’re looking for. 

    This.

    I also was a.amantine on insta, he makes long shits but he’s using 10-15k iray thermals for those.

    My BiL has the hogster and he can identify most critters out past 400yds easily but our shots are usually inside of 200 yards. Usually inside of 100 tbh because I have a digital NV scope and thermal scanner so I don’t take longer shots

  6. So PSA is basically trying to corner the budget-mid level for every firearm market now?

    Emerge Bolt action rifle
    Sabre precision bolt action
    570 pump Shotgun
    Jakl in like 5 calibers now including a .308
    Sabre like Jakl expansion
    Dagger like above including 10mm
    Vuk (looks like a Zastava clone)
    PSA 5.7 (hk mp7 clone but in 5.7)
    Thumper (m203 “clone”)

  7. So my sisters married family are French, basically helped design Lyon historically…

    My BiL’s father is in his 90s now with failing health so they’ve been slowly working through everything. As they were preparing his house for sale this year, they realized he had a super old safe in the cellar.

    Fast forward to getting the needed legal paper work to employ a safe cracker they found a secondary safe/lockbox inside the safe, get needed legal paper work to crack the lockbox. (Oh also forgot that the key for the safe was saved in an old bank in Lyon) the key broke and failed to open the safe, hence safe cracker)

    Here is the lockbox:

    Inside the lockbox were these:

    All original but no one knows anything about them as those that knew are dead or nearing.

    When I hear back from my sis about their age and everything, I’ll report back

  8. Almost didn't watch Almeria v. RMA. 43 minutes in and the worst team in LaLiga at the moment is leading 2-0. 
    And in Madrid

    Craziest game of the new year. Sleep walking will do that to you.

  9. Bleh, bunch of dingdong goals and Madrids solid efforts kept hitting the wordwork.

    1 less trophy available to win for Los Blancos now.

    Hope Atleti find a way to beat Barca

  10. If they do it right, TG3 will pick up right at the end of TG2. Maverick and Jennifer Connelly lovingly cruising through the air in the P-51 when all of sudden 3 Sukhoi Su-57 appear and cruise has to take them out with a rubber band and only 2 paper clips. Sadly, Jennifer falls from the P-51 during one of Maverick's crazy maneuvers and he has to watch her fall like Stallone watching that gal fall at the beginning of Cliffhanger, which works out well as Stallone is the hard ass Navy brass that gives orders to Maverick that Maverick ignores while he seeks revenge. Throw in Maverick's internal need to raise Jennifer's daughter means he must survive the un-survivable mission to kill the men who caused Jennifer's death while also needing to get back stateside within 48 hours to be best man at Rooster and Hangman's wedding. 

    That’s sounds like your just ripping off Iron Eagle 2 and 3

  11. The (insert nameless/faceless nation) build another Death Star and Maverick has to rely on small, bear-like creatures to help him defeat the (insert nameless/faceless nation), all the while having to face his father?

    I’m sold!

    Here’s 120mil with another $100 mil on hold.

    Can you make one of these bear-like creatures gay or trans or black?
  12. Whatever device your out of home kids watch netflix on (tv, roku, phone, tablet) needs to connect to your home wifi.  Then Netflix will be back on the table for some period of time before they have to do it again.

    This but there is some issue with Samsung(I think it’s Samsung) TVs with Netflix app, not liking the “travel” mode of Netflix…

    So for example my parents have a Samsung TV in front, a fire stick in the back room and my mom uses her iPad in bed to watch shows. She’ll bring her iPhone over to my house and connect to my wifi, when she goes back home and reconnects to her wifi, all the devices function except the Samsung tv, it wants to make it the home network… which ain’t happening
