I love my 80 and will be keeping it till I kill it. Then I'll probably bring it back to life..
Sorry for all the pics... but I like looking at pics in threads, thats half the reason I even look.

Thanks for looking.

yeah, I love pictures and hate reading - this is perfect.

You a Marine? (I know, cant say "ex" Marine. saw your license plate and poster in your "mug" shot. If so, you have the right to look all muggy)

Im not far from Canton, I'm in the Medina area. Was just up in Michigan last week, South Haven, then St. Joseph. Lake Michigan is very nice. Some of those small towns remind me of the Cape.

Thanks bro, my wife has 2 cars too. I talked her into letting me build a "barn" / shop for some storage. Between you and me it's gonna be a shop only. Hoping to break ground in the next 2 weeks. Gonna do a 48x56 steel... cant wait.

We have the same rig and I used to do track days on ktm motards and bastardized ducatis. I crashed in front of don canet at button willow in 2006 (that's my only cool bike story).

I started on 2 stroke NSR 50's and graduated to liter bikes. Got to damn expensive and painful when I crashed out . I lost my front end coming off the back straight going into a long sweeper left. I figure I was going about 85-100 and I high sided. That was my final race, and the beginning of a long year of recovery. I miss racing though, I still got buddies that do it every once and awhile. We're all old now and fat so the young 130 pound punks dust everybody. I've always been a little big for racing at 6'1" 210 but I'm a rush junkie.

 

[Booger weldz]

Definitely fun. I'm an idiot with no self control so I stuck to the super retards mostly for self preservation plus it's fun to be the underdog!

I have a dream of a 450 thumper in a 90s 2 stroke rs/NSA/txt chassis

Stupid spellcheck... I'm sure you know

 

[UnderDawg]

Those motards are sick, I've watched those dudes run and their dragging their nuts behind em fo sho.

Stupid spellcheck... I'm sure you know

Sure sure good thing most of them cant drive right?

Nice, welcome. How do you like the hankooks?

 

[UnderDawg]

Nice, welcome. How do you like the hankooks?

I like em alright, didnt know they were made in china till after I got it home. I thought Hankooks were a German tire.. oh well. I've noticed since the lift they hum a little more going down the road. I would imagine because of axle shift from the lift?

I really like what you guys are doing with the 6BT's, man I wish I had the $$ to do it with the NV4500. Maybe one of these days.

 

[OverLand Cruisers]

Nice! Good intel on the Hankooks...no made in China for this hombre.

 

[nukegoat]

I lust after an e39 m5. So jealous.

 

[ranma21]

Nice E39 M5, that is my dream car!!

 

[UnderDawg]

Thanks guys, i bought it from the OG owner back in '09. Its the most comfortable car I've ever owned. So smooth and yet still extremely fast. Only mods to it is I'm running Alpha-N (no more MAFs), Evolve headers and complete exhaust, Dinan intake, E39 540i mirrors side and rear view (old ones bleed out), M3 rep wheels, had the interior worked on some. This is also another car I will never sell if I can help it. I love it
