    ouch... im shocked the airbags didnt pop... car totally fucked or just a little fucked? If it drove on the trailer itself, its still alive... if they loaded it with a forklift(saw this with a C7 Corvette at Ozark in May) its probably big fucked...

    Bulk Rifle Brass Processing Neck Expansion

    The M-die doesnt have any options for size IIRC... i.e. you order a .223, 308, etc... and you get what you get... With the 21st century you can measure what you need for your neck tension and order that mandrel. I have an m-die for 300blk loading since I load a lot of cast projectiles that...

    This: https://21stcenturyinnovation.com/buy-online/ols/products/expander-die-body Plus whatever mandrel you need... in .0005 increments... I process on a Dillon with their trim die and use this afterwords to set the neck. Dillon trim dies are cut with the same cutter as their sizing...

    Spicy grudge race tonight between Cleetus and Grannas racing for $15k

    geebus... IIRC there is a form of "fencing" in front of the bleachers because they are literally track side... I mean like the front row can prop their legs up on the sides of the track. And the track is nowhere near as wide as a current NHRA track...maybe half that wide. Like lets say 3 cars...

    Spicy grudge race tonight between Cleetus and Grannas racing for $15k

    The safest place to stand at yello belly is well back from the starting line where everybody is betting. Ill take my chances getting shot back there vs. getting hit by a car being further down the track... Hell I think street racing is safer than Yello Belly.

    Self-proclaimed Pit Masters of SH- I've got some questions

    The last pork loins I did I think I brined them to long... they turned into ham...or I guess Canadian bacon. Was still good, but not what I was going for.

    why would you toothpick test ribs? Bone pull back is a far easier method. At LEAST the distance of the diameter of the bone.

    I have seen that one. I wouldnt personally build the car like that guy did, but thats just me. There's better ways to do a few things they did.

    Yea GridLife and I think he runs unlimited class. SCCA "rules" is a huge reason I dont auto-x or go to any SCCA events. I just want to go out and have fun and their 900000 car classifications and people getting all uppity about shit is why I wont go. I took my Miata to auto-x last year and I...

    ive done some searching on it and im just not seeing it be a widespread issue... And i wouldnt expect anything to live during an over rev... Certainly nothing to the level of like the LS7 valve guide issue. Lots of guys running the stock LS3/LSA valves to 7500+ RPM so im not terribly...
