These people really frikk'n scare me. I don't get intimidated to easy, but these people freak me out because they are fucking nuts over something so stupid (in my mind it's stupid). Plant a tree, it will grow back at little or no cost. Remake the bimmer in the video before at a major expense. Environmentalist are one thing, but Tree-Huggers are frikk'n weird.


Sorry, back on topic*

Maybe its a coincidence but I was at pullapart on Thursday to get a new window for the jeep (Because some douche wanted my radio and the GPS, that was left In The Window by someone, more than me) and I saw signs everywhere saying that they will not sell you the head or block for a motor. Maybe it's me but I have never noticed these signs before. I know this may sound like I'm straying a little, but if they stop selling used blocks and heads at junk yards then it's only time before you can't get a used block or head anywhere, meaning that when we blow up our motors doing what we love then you're out of the game completely unless you can afford to go out and buy a new car everytime you blow it up on the track. Am I off, or does any of this seem to tie in with the whole cash for clunkers thing?

Never heard of that at PaP, they always sold engines. Prices are still listed on their site too.

I feel so bad for those cars...

Drain their oil and will their engines with sodium silica (liquid glass). How would you feel if I drained your blood and filled your veins with liquid glass?

bwah i owned a 530i

i bet that engine was doomed to failure. the owner did right in trading it in since they are worth less than 3000 used now.

i agree tho, cash for clunkers is retarded. destroying usable cars.

what they should have done is taken the cars and put them in junk yards. that way the poor could go get parts for their cars and the "well off" or well enough off could get new cars and clunk their old ones.
