  1. The car is on the trailer on the way home. Can't wait... here are some pictures.
  2. I love my Glocks as well. I define that love as: I feel the most proficient (of any of my pistols) with my Glock.. and the fact that it is SUPER low maintenance, fires even when dirty as hell, has almost no moving parts, is simple to put together and take apart and clean and has been very reliable. As far as pistols go (for me) it is all of the above more then any other pistol I've ever used.
  3. Once the car comes in will do guys. Thanks!
  4. In for the sub I'm hoping mine arrives by Sunday.
  5. There are pro's and con's to having a loud car. Pro: It sounds bad ass. Con: You are afraid to floor it because cops in a 5 mile radius can hear it and pinpoint you easily.
  6. Congrats man! I'm still looking around for mine and selling the cars I need to sell to buy it... but i'll get there!
  7. Something for me to keep an eye on if/when I pick up my Mac.
  8. Nice, seems it has a bit of spam on it. I wonder if Alex would sell it to me so I could really fix it up. I'll ask him. No, autoforums/autoguide owns that other one and I refuse to be on any of their sites.
  9. Congrats! I have begun the process on finding my Mac, though it will be a 2012. I have some toys to sell first but I hope to join the club soon. I'm thinking about starting a McLaren forum since I don't like the existing one (or the company that owns it) -- any other Mac owners possibly interested in joining up if I put it up?
  10. I've never even heard the term ghost gun... wtf? Google educated me:
  11. Yes I realize that, but it didn't sound good going down the track either. Not compared to the MP4 video's I've watched (ie, top gear, etc) but that could also be due to the camera audio just not being good. I know very much what a rev limiter/2 step sounds like and how terrible it can be...
  12. Sticky tires, great launch.... and does he have the stock exhaust modified? Didn't sound stock... didn't sound good at all but it sure did move! Impressive. 1.62 60' is VERY good on "street" tires.
  13. Coins are generated by performing mathematical calculations which are them submitted to the network... most are worthless but every once in a while one is like a lottery ticket and worth "coins". The coins can be transferred to anyone for free almost instantly. It truly is digital currency. The reason why governments are cracking down on it is because they do not control it and they are scared.
  14. I agree with you on both points. The easiest way to get BTC right now is to mine LTC and exchange it for BTC. There are no ASIC's out for Litecoin so it's still possible to build rigs to get decent amounts. I currently have about 15 MH/s of scrypt hashrate and about 245 GH/s of sha hash going. If you are going to build scrypt rigs get the Sapphire R9 280X Toxic's... they run stable at 810kh/s at very cool temps. Awesome cards, just hard to get right now. You can get cheap motherboards and run 6 of them per rig. Here's an image.. the CPU in the system can't drive all 6 cards at full speed. If I run 1 or 2 I get 810, but when running all 6 (I have 2 1200 watt powersupplies) the load on the machine goes to 7 and the hash rate drops a tad... also they run a bit quicker at 75/76 celsius but I don't like driving the fans at 85+% 24/7 so I run them a bit cooler then that...
  15. I have someone who put a deposit down on the car, so I am considering it sold. Should be able to close the deal within a month. Thanks guys!
  16. I currently mine Litecoin but have also mined FeatherCoin in the past... mainly just for Fun. I've made quite a bit of money off Litecoin and its been fun building rigs. Keeping them cool in the summer is the hard part For anyone involved in Bitcoin they know this article is full of crap. First off, mtgox has been the laughing stock as far as exchanges go for well over a year now... secondly, this particular "hole" they are claiming in the bitcoin protocol has been there for years, isn't really a hole, and isn't that big a deal. Mtgox is just clueless on how to run a decent exchange and you can tell it has been amateur hour there for quite some time. For people into bitcoin, its a yawn event. It has effected the price and that is fine, just a dip to buy in. Personally, as long as bitcoin stays over $100 I'm fine with it.
  17. As some of you may know I'm looking to get into an MP4-12C and this means I need to sell my GTR and my Camaro (I'll do a separate listing for it). If you know of anyone looking please let me know. I am the original owner and purchased it brand new at a local Nissan dealership. Car has just over 4000 miles (4030 or so. I have all stock parts in boxes, all work was performed at Boost Logic. VIN: JN1AR5EF3DM260883 ID 1000 Injectors BL Intake Pipes BL Fuel Pump Kit (e85) BL FMIC BL FMIC Pipe Kit, 3" w/Black Coated Tial BOV BL Coated Midpipe BL Coated Downpipes Cobb AP KW Coilover Kit Carbon Fiber Trunk Lid GReddy Multi D/A Gauge w/EGT LED Dome Light Hardwired V1 Radar Detector DPE CS16 Wheels, 21x10.5" front, 21x12" rears in Satin Charcoal. Tires are Pirelli's, the rears are 355's. Includes Mine's GT-R center caps. Still have stock wheels and tires as well. (Wheels alone were $7200 and took over 6 months to get) Car is tuned for E85. Over $10k in modifications from Boost Logic alone. Will take $95,000 without the DPE wheels/tires. Please PM me for details/contact info, etc..
  18. I agree on the 458, I disagree on the G. I'm having a hard time liking the G's anymore, it looks very dated. The Huracan, on the other hand, looks amazing
  19. That's strange. I think they look GREAT. Granted, I still prefer the LOOKS of the 458 (and the Huracan) but the rest of the McLaren is tough to beat!
  20. Been browsing ebay lately and I've been seeing that plenty of MP4-12C's can be had for just under $200k. Thats a big hit to take in a short time... is there something up that I don't know about? Cost of ownership really high? Reliability? Seems like a TON of car for that price.
