Definitely Rated PG-13 (Parental guidance is suggested.)

Them big blocks aren't used to revving so go easy on em.

Seriously my dad let me drive his 70 El Camino SS 396 4-speed, beforehand he said "don't over rev it or the belt will come off". No problem I'm just gonna cruise it. And sure enough...

that is why i have a march pulley system and i never throw belts,i used to but not any more

I put a new Quantas Chrysler re-pop belt on it. DREW--What RPM's is the stock system good to? Maybe someday I'll get that March system!

What RPM's on the road track i have revved it well past 6 grand, and there is alot of on,and off the throttle that usually threw my belts,especially after 2 or 3 laps and i told my self i need a better belt system cause as long as i have had the factory v belt type i always trashed belts ,andpulleys they would get glazed and the the belt would never stay on i did have a little luck with tooth paste of all things it took the glaze off

Flight Booked!!! Eddie...Muay Thai and Muscle cars and Metal Music!!!

Thanks for your honesty Drew I'll see what all you guys think during the trip. I think Dave uses Deep groove pulleys on his setup too. I might have to seriously look into that. Well, it's all back together and has terrific throttle response! Thanks again to Dave for all his expert tuning advice and Don at FBO for his "Eddieproof" Heavy Duty High Output Coil and ECU. It survived my 'KEEO' on all night test!

Well I decided that yes I could fly into Denver and not have to do the long haul, but if I fly in early to Indy I get to do a bit of Muay Thai with you my man as I know you have a good interest in it,plus I can help out with the car and trailer prep!!

Dont expect a lot out of me Wayne, I'm old and disease ridden If you are here early and at Indy,,I can be there in an hour. Yes, it would be great to have you here early to help me with the car&trailer, then we can wait for Bob&Dave cause Bob lives nearer to the airport and I live an hour west of Indy right near I-70 West which we'll be taking.

Thats the beauty of Muay Thai, on occassion you dont have to be fit and flexi to use it if required!!

We gonna be doing some Siam elbow work...........otherwise known as the body's version of can openers!!

Muay Thai is that a drink or some special elixer?

ahh now i know what "siam elbow" is ,wow that sport is insane,can you be our bouncer? ya know security? hopefully we wont need it, muay thai.im am one of those ignorant americans, especially here in denver, we dont get alot of world news in this cow town, and i have never heard of it except from you,

is it like kick boxing? or mixed martial arts?

Muay Thai use 8 weapons elbows, knees, fists and shins,where as kickboxing uses 2 weapons fists and feet. Kickboxing would be considered much less violent than Muay Thai.

As for MMA- Nearly all MMA fighters will cross train Muay Thai because its considered the apex of stand up martial arts bar none.

I've seen a lot of serious fights in the joint. None used Karate, Kung-Fu ect Muay Thai is it's own discipline which uses the natural leverage of the body. Kicking from the hips instead of a 'Kung Fu' kick is much more natural and devastating. Hitting one with your elbow&knees is equally as lethal and much more damaging. The other martial arts were developed for entertaining 'kings' Muay Thai rules.

They say that the standing knee has the same impact force as being hit by a car at 30mph, here is a view of a flying knee.

Yep,, Wayne's gonna show me the ropes. If I'm all bruised up you guys will know why! Leave a bit for Dave&Bob though,, I get my ass kicked everywhere I go! (Just kiddin Wayne)

I had the pleasure of a gym to learn in, but poor Dave had to do it in the loft of a pub down the toon.........ah the percyman.......must bring back some memories eh Dave!!

Three different pubs over the years as well as a short time in a gym and even a secondary school where we had quite a large night class of about 25 people including two girls that I was allowed to shower with at the end of each class because they liked me.

You TART!!

As junior instructor I got all the perks.
Plus my master was a bearded 310lb biker and given the chance most of the women tended to sway towards me.
Hence my Tuesday night "womens self defence class" which was the best damn idea we ever had. Usually i was the only male there and you know what women are like with their coaches.

I used to have no legs for my Wednesday training night.

well i guess we will need you both to keep the women at bay

So.. are you in shape for the ladies of Nevada?
