Many of you may know, I manage a paint shop as my job. I paid my dues to get there by painting in the RV industry for the last 20 years. I still do side jobs for fun money and have become involved with a company that is a major player in the Grand Am series. I do custom paint jobs on racing helmets. It's great money and easier then painting a 40 foot motorhome. The team is TRG (the racers group) and they will be announcing that they will be joining with the Wood Brothers and enter Nascars Busch series next year, with plans on being in Nextel cup within 3 years. Who knows, I may eventually be painting helmets for some pretty big names. Just kinda excited, had to tell someone. BTW, just starting to paint a 41 foot racing catamaran powerboat, the thing is damn near million dollar machine! The price of the paint job would have paid for my first house, LOL. No pics of the boat for awhile, they want it under wraps, but here are just a few helmets I've done.
Not to burst your bubble, but, unless you've disabled the factory installed speed limiter, 120 if you have a tail wind down hill. Stock venge at 120, back end get pretty light. 140 mph makes me think you have overlays with the needles out of wack.
Welcome to the club !! I don't care, it's a Venge. Was in the DC area a month ago and they where everywhere. This might be the re-birth of an aging site, bring your buddies, and we will all learn together. Glad to have you here.
Would love to know how you got the Auto Meter speedometer to fit and work, been wanting to do that for some time now. Probably little easier when you don't have to mess with the stock computer. Keep rollin.
might have to peel your door panel off and make sure your linkage is not binding as well, make sure the plastic clips are secure on the linkage arms. You'll know what I'm talking about when you see it. WD-40 is your friend, good luck.
Just poking alittle fun at all the post to drop it, and yet here it remains a week later. We need some things stirred up once and awhile, 'thanks' to all that replied.
Just giving 'my' view, not saying you must agree. It's the internet baby, does not conform to everyone, especially in a general forum. Alain (if you still around) you have been a tremendous asset to both sites, hate to see you give up on this site after years of devotion and advice (I'm grateful to you) just because of one thread that got controversial. From one old timer to another, wish you would stick around, lot of us need your help. This thread caught me in a bad week at work and I might have unloaded, certainly not at you or anyone else. If your gone, I will understand and respect your decision, and you will be missed. I'm not apologizing for my beliefs, just sorry if it makes some uneasy. I too am done with this thread, kinda fun while it lasted
James: nothing wrong on your end, glad your here and thinking, nice change.
