it's been a long while!

[MindIfISmoke?]

im 24. deployed in Iraq for 6 months in 2009. I'm a flying crew chief for combat search and rescue. I developed a heart condition while over there and have died 5 times since.


real men do it slidewayz!

Where in Iraq?

 

[projektstang]

they havnt been able to diagnose the problem. once they do I'm getting medically discharged. the only thing they can really pin point is a nuero electrical problem. almost like a relay that just turns off and on. each time I died I just came back 45 seconds later

balad. they think it's burn put related but they aren't sure. I havnt been able to do any real work since feb 2011 when I died 2 more times. I died twice in 2010 and 3 times last year

Man that's just crazy. Does it happen at random? I'd be terrified for you if I was your supervisor!

 

[projektstang]

haha it's hard I explain. they think that a change in my body's equilibrium causes it. the last time it happened I was on a tilt table and that triggered it. haha my supervisor hates it! and I am on one hell of a profile! my PT test is just the waist measurement.

Look bro I feel for you! That's just plain crazy and hopefully you get 100% disability when you get out!



But I still don't see you beating GT's!!!!!!!

 

[projektstang]

overall, they pretty much have no idea but are trying to get me out by November with full disability

you might have Neurocardiogenic Syncope I was diagnosed with a mild case of it just out of High school, however in serious cases people's hearts stop for short amounts of time.

The solution is to install a pacemaker to ensure that your heart doesn't stop in serious cases.

I spent a week in the hospital because I kept fainting randomly and this was believed to be the cause.

Basically what happens is your brain starts sending signals to your heart to slow down randomly and in serious cases it can slow down to a stop.

I hope this helps.

[projektstang]

ya that's the same thing they said too! they want to do a pacemaker later on down the road because it might cause problems this early

Throttle Body Spacer

That has to be it. Way too much HP to tune for.

How hot is it there? I want to see some vids of your car running these gt's I don't doubt you. Just easier to believe with actual proof.

 

[stephen1371]

Hell if I wasn't deployed id be tempted to run him, I havent put on my full suspension and spray yet, so he would have to run it with full echaust and cold air, canned Bamma tune. I'll even leave the 64 pnd a pop 20"s

 

[projektstang]

haha true. it's about 90-100. but it was the same temp as the last week. everything was fine up till about a week ago

sorry to hear about your health issues, thats serious stuff. as far as that mod list and beating the v8`s, really nothing on that list is gonna get you there. every time ive gone to the track, i get paired up with the v8`s. i can come off the line side by side and hang till about 2nd gear( and its fun watching a guys face going WTF just off the line) but in the big end i get creamed. your gonna need some sort of supercharger or juice to pick up that extra 100 hp. maybe you ran up against some guys that cant drive or just spinning tires. that would net you a win maybe?

there are some freak 4.0`s out there. i know a guy in ok that has one. he could run almost a second less than mine in the 1/4 mile, both n/a. his car was tuned by roush. hes sence done heads and cams. its a fast 4.0. my over size rear tires are costing me a couple tenths, but i`m running 14.7 with them, i would just guess 14.5 with stock height tires. my car runs solid for what it is

how about some details on your trans. mine just crapped out so i`m looking at options. on the sluggish thing, fuel filter, dirty tb or bad fuel?
