Have a good time - don't look like a tourist (leave your east coast, Hawaiian print, flowered shirt at home).

 

[Sparky_911]

I've been to Chicago 3x. Twice to pick up someone from an airport and once because I won free concert tix (System of a Down in '02, did an overnighter/tourist thing, sears tower was cool).  Brought along my SW 686 .357 all 3 times (legally transported of course) and made it out with no superfluous holes.

If you talk to almost anyone that lives south of I-80 (or at least in my county), a lot would agree that we would like WI and IN to annex each half of Chit-cago into their state....no offense to anyone from WI or IN of course....

 

[Jarred J.]

so my friend calls me,  he has spent hours on the car trying to figure out why it wouldnt start.... the back cat is clogged and wont allow the car to fire...

the back cat may not be there much longer...... "allegedly"

 

[Retired1]

I wonder if Dave has made it to Chicago yet? I hope he can send updates sharing his adventures with us.

 

[Jarred J.]

after gutting the back cat. the car runs normal and is too quite for my liking

It's been snowing off and on up there today.

Greetings from Oswego, Il!

Greetings from Oswego, Il! 

In the 1960s, I spent many a Sunday in Oswego, IL. It had one of the three best dragstrips in the Midwest. I devoted most of my resources of the time to being there. It was an awesome time to be alive.

 

[Dave F]

last time I was out here was about 8 years ago and its crazy to see how much the respective areas Im familiar with have exploded (Naperville,Plainfield and Oswego) . Il is ...more restrictive gun wise .... other wise Id give serious thought to moving here

 

[Sparky_911]

Still missing email notifications somehow....good to see you're all 10-4 making it in.  I heard there were some icy roads up that way yesterday. 

 

[Jarred J.]

[Jarred J.]

[tsquale]

I'm alive. Tased for PD training last night. Man does that drain your body. I've never gotten such a solid night of sleep. 14hrs uninterrupted!!

 

[Tony P]

Yaaaaay sites back

 

[Sparky_911]

Ahhh. ELB working again. Woo hoo!

Retirement party for our chief tonight. 36yrs of service, 30 of those chief. That's a long time (especially for an all volunteer agency). He is also the current OEM deputy director so will be around if needed. Don't see that kind of dedication much these days.

 

[justavillain]

I am back.... Als and fire shifts easy up your time!

 

[crt6mrt-265]

Worth mounting a cannon 120 to the end cap? We are fighting about this in the shop. The additional cost isn't needed in my opinion because of the wide lux optics.

 

[Jsherman88]

Looks like it would be especially bright as it is. Not sure what would be accomplished with the 120 unless there isn't any other 360 lighting in the vehicle rear, but even then it's a little high to be effective for side warning.

 

[7d9_z28]

Invest the money in a better camera Nic, that picture looks like it was taken in the late 80s and scanned onto windows 95.

shooting from inside dark garage towards outside. Purposely didnt care as it wasnt important

Sure sure... But even Bigfoot and UFO photographers accidentally take better pictures

 

[Carlos SpicyWeiner]

I'll get better pictures of the final product if I move forward with building another.

 

[7d9_z28]

Personally I think 3x7 all the way across would look more uniform and less bulky. Im sure they put out enough light.

Cannons on the side would look like pimples at this point.

 

[Carlos SpicyWeiner]

the reason we elected to do the 6x4 on the outside and 7x3 on the inside was so that the 3rd brake light was still visible.

We could do 7x3 all the way across however the two center ones will still be sitting below the outer ones.

 

[7d9_z28]

I can't see a third brake light anyways.... Probably due to your fail picture

I am certain it could be done, even if you had to add an aftermarket TBL to the top of the unit.

 

[Carlos SpicyWeiner]

third brake light is visible. just crappy picture. lol ok you win on that front.

I really wish they made them in dual color. I'd just do 6x4 all the way across with the two center having the brake pop

 

[7d9_z28]

Im really just trying to hit page 200, so someone can win something on page 200
