Just some guys from BUFFALO NY (716) who like everything about having fun with cars drifting drag racing burnouts and bass build and of course some good ol late night street fun
I only paint miniatures and models, but really apprecaite Ricky's tutorial, and hes right even with painting minis a good brush even if its $30 a brush its worth it in the long run
Thanks for the video! Made a 3 hr trip to Michigan to go to the Mack headquarters to feel the brushes in person. They are great brushes and the owner gave me a free shirt for making the drive!!
Ya know, she was pretty loyal although you were nothing but disrespectful to her but it's cool. Your $ bro bro but packin a 360 I wouldn't beat it. Id put a bigger cam, long tubes and a tune on er. Just trying to express how loved they are even though most think they're pos's.
What kind of truck do I have? 2002 Silverado 4x4 with a 4.8 LS motor. 224k miles. Gets around 18-19 mpg. Rusty but very trusty. I know people with these engines that got 400k miles out of them. My little 4.8 feels way stronger than my previous Ford 5.4 2 valve and a Dodge hemi 2006 with high miles.
Thanks for that radio bump at the start. My friends and I would catch those ads on WKBW. My heroes then were Gray, McGowan and Zakia. Billy (or Willy?) Gray and his Chevy. How we loved to hear him speedshift. My friend Bob and I found an old rusted and abandoned milk truck not far from where we lived in NF, and would get behind the wheel and act out our version of Willy Gray speedshifts using the truck's shift lever. LOL. Then there was John McGowan and his red Chevy. He used to wear a funny hat while racing. The track announcer referred to it as his "Black forest gnome's hat." Lol. Hard to imagine racing w/out a helmet, isn't it? But McGowan did. Others too, maybe. IDK. Or did he just wear it on the return road? Heck, I don't recall. (I'm 79 now and I reserve the unalienable right to forget sh*t.) Jim Zakia's garage in NF was just off Pine Avenue and Portage Road, a half block away from Niagara Falls High School. One of my classes was on the side of the school building that faced the direction where Jim's shop was, and now and again he'd start up one of his cars while my class was in session. Wow, I wanted to get out of class and over to Jim's garage so bad!! Thanks again for the memories.
Great video. Just a question. I haven’t looked yet still watching, but do you have a video on setting up your Mack from brand new. From fluffy to sword.
I raced there in the 90's. The Air Force never bothered us, it was always the Sheriff. I'm working on the Amazon project and the track is still accessible but not for long
Thank you this was an excellent video and you have definitely inspired me. I've always been a sketch artist and I've always wanted to learn the technique of pinstriping I'm old school I grew up in the 60s and 70s when Vans were a big thing, and I was first introduced to pinstriping but never pursued it, now I just purchased a 94 Chevy G30 and my plans are to practice on it. But thank you very much I really appreciate it, all your information.
I’m a navy veteran. Was stationed in San dog CA in the 80s. Picked up stripping for beer money. Got married had a family. Had to stop because family came first. I’m 58. In CT an picked it up again. Hard time running lines. Old hands have carpal tunnel. But get 30-40 minutes a day great therapy
Believe it or not that is a very close time we got on our truck at Lancaster speedway in New York. It’s a 1/8 mile track. With 2 people best time 9.69 @ 71mph
