If you had the brake on in the Aurora, your center-mounted brake light is burned out.
Sounds good!

Sounds better on a fly by though. Yeah, my car emits very little noise when I rev it, which I guess is even more reason not to do it. But under load it sounds wicked. You need to find marry someone to hold the camera for you (it's my wife you hear shout "go" in my clip).  |

Maple syrup products? Can you make something out of maple syrup other than maple syrup?
P.S.: Who would buy maple syrup as a gift? I'd feel jipped if I got a bottle of pancake syrup for my birthday...

I'm glad you brought up the subject of Maple syrup products.
Did you know ...
Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD) is an inherited metabolic disorder, that, if untreated, causes mental retardation, physical disabilities and death. First described as a disease in 1954, it is a rare disorder, believed to be in all ethnic groups worldwide.

Is it caused by having to much maple syrup? heh, like on super troopers when they race to see who can finish the bottle first? |

P.S.: Who would buy maple syrup as a gift? People who visit Canada, that's who. They come in little flannel-patterned bottles. It's like bringing back salt-water taffy when you visit the beach... ;D   |

After all, what else is there to bring back from Canada? I mean, it's a nice place and all, but I've never returned to the US with anything but humongous mosquito bites and fond memories of this little french girl from Hull. Back on topic, the 3800 is truly the most venerable engine that I know of still in current production. Developed in 1961 from a V-8, it offers smooth low end power, if not particular refinement, and a proven, bullet proof design. What a great engine! |

Ohh Hull, crustacean heaven.
If you have fond memories of this little girl from Hull I hope you picked up crabs too.
How much did your Magnaflow catback exhaust for the Aurora cost Jim?

Aha! After an extensive investigation, I have found some of the end products of Maple-Syrup farming. Interesting Facts - Maple syrup and maple sugar are amongst the oldest agricultural commodities produced in North America and yet represents tree farming at its best. The total world production of maple syrup is dominated by Quebec, with a production of 18,563 tonnes in 1998, easily dwarfing the United States' and other Canadian provenances total production of 4,378 and 2,055 tonnes respectively. Total Canadian exports of maple syrup for 1998 reached 23,188.261 tonnes worth an estimated export value of $112,351,488. Australia is recognised as Canada's seventh largest export market, importing around 173.6 tonnes or 1.3 million dollars worth of maple syrup.

Heheh, just kidding with you after your exclamations about the Corsa costing $1000 and the Razzi kit costing $1000 and probably whatever else someone bought that cost $1000... Hey Jim, maple pepper? I think that raises more questions than it answers...  |

$600 isn't bad for the whole exhaust job. Has anyone else seen the Meineke $350 cat-back dual exhaust commercial? The fine print says that it includes one muffler, and one pipe. Does that make the entire system $700? I wonder who fell for it...

Wait a minute. Didn't that picture of the Fitch Pharm Farm Pure Maple Spread say Ashland, OH? Is this some kind of "Canadian Conspiracy" to phoster phake phoder phor phobias upon us by inphiltrating poor Amish farmers phrom Ohio (who can't spell) to imitate Canadian products? Should we be notifying the Department of Homeland Security? They said to be on the lookout for suspicious activity. And let me tell you, this whole thread seems suspicious to me. |
