The Daily Rant Thread

[Doom!]

Been oval racing regularly now for about 6-8 months. Learned so so much from forums posts, YouTube, and mostly from guys at the track. Started out doing breakout and then built a late model buggy based late model 13.5. had fun with that and worked on my mudboss here and there but never got the mud oss feeling good. I had some leftover parts and decided to convert my mudboss to a super street class. Started running in the back of the pack. Finally got my straightline speed up but was still losing in the corners. After spending some time chatting with other racers and examining their cars I realized I had way too high a ride height and therefore a very high CG compared to most. We raced Thursday night and Friday I rebuilt all my shocks with different springs, shock limiters, pistons, and oil. Didn't have time to even check cber changes and went out Saturday and sent it.

I had the best laps of my life with a slash-based car. Top guys run a high 4.4-4.5 consistently and I was hitting 4.3s. unfortunately there was only one other street stock to run with and he was quite fast too. I was glued to his bumper every lap of every race but couldn't get any opportunity to pass. Had a great time, took my car home and decided to write down ally settings and man, were they... Not what I was expecting.

Most excellent! When you finally get things where they work, it's a great feeling, enjoy!

Downstairs neighbor getting on my nerves again. I don't know what he's doing, but he's being loud and it's vibrating my room's floor and I can't take it anymore. I just want peace and quiet. I always respect the neighbors, and they need to do the same. I'm not saying what he can and can't do, but give me a break.

I used to have awful noise issues with ppl upstairs.
Apparently the upstairs hardwood was a playground as well.
We had a back yard and a BIG park less than 1/4 mile away, beside the f/d and well lit.
Then they bought a dog that barked ALL DAY. They wanted to tie it up out back all day so I could listen to it up close.
I told my landlord I would move out the day that dog was outside my door.
She agreed as we both lived on lower floor but her apt was beside mine and not experiencing the same clown nonsense noise.
They finally got kicked out.
That place SUCKED!
I hope ypu find a way to drive your snowblower upstairs for a proper tuning this weekend and to say hi to the neighbors!
Maybe around 3:30 am?
Sorry this is happening. Maine housing is tough as it is. I hope ypu can work it out with the neighbor or LL.

Call the property manager/landlord, after you ask them to stop.

What's odd, I struggled with algebra, excelled in geometry.

I had to get a tutor for algebra, but I was asked to tutor others in geometry.

Ugh, don't miss those days, my upstairs neighbor used to be a bartender, so she would come home from work at 2am with a different guy every night. She was a screamer if you know what I mean. Annoying as hell on a work night.

Apparently I was so tired this morning I forgot to put on deodorant

Happens to the best of us. A clean shirt overrides this.

I forget every morning. I've never worn it.

Pro tip: If you're already out of the house when you realize your mistake, you can stop and turn your dirty t-shirt inside out.
Turning the shirt inside out makes it clean again therefore, deodorant is unnecessary.

You're ALL welcome!

What about underwear?

Sweat and old bay.......that's funk, right there!

I'm pretty sure this depends on the size and color of the underwear in question but I'll have to check the Ultimate Guide to R/C Fashion Fall 2024...
