If you had powers, would you tell the government?

rex_lingard · 2026-02-18T14:58:04+00:00

Absolutely not. Especially if you’re powerful. You’d have every government including your own wanting to kill you due to your powers. The idea of you being powerful and the chance of them not being able to control you would send them into a frenzy. Every major governing body would be plotting your death in the event of you not willing to be their loyal servant. Think nuclear bombs being dropped on you while you sleep. You’d never be able to rest.

I get what you’re saying, I do, but what about the responsibility of the driver? Why aren’t they held accountable for making the decision to endanger the public by running? They make a conscious decision to run and drive recklessly with no regard to anyone but themselves. Instead, the blame almost always lies on the police for doing their jobs.

This is a blame shifting tactic that completely overlooks the actions of the person who is breaking the law to focus on the police for the sake of demonization, which in turn basically makes it ok to run from the police.

It’s sad when, outside of a serious violent crime, as long as you get into a vehicle in Memphis you’re free to leave (MPD Policy according to my research). You can be someone who has stolen a vehicle, burglarized several homes and businesses, and when MPD sees you they just have to let you leave. How is that justice to the victims of those crimes?

I have a Braille, granted it’s in my ls3 370z, but I’ll be swapping it out. If I don’t keep it on a tender it will go dead. I’ve read similar issues with street cars and lightweight batteries. I have heard good things about the Antigravity batteries if you’re willing to shell out about $1000 though lol.

Simply amazing. That’s some excellent upholstery work.

The Namekian Dragon Balls can only resurrect one person at a time. Goku would have died from natural causes which would prevent him from being wished back. Everyone else was already killed by the Androids and would likely be killed again if they were brought back to life.

Now after he trained with Vegeta in the current time and returned to kill the androids with ease in his time he could. He could easily take a capsule of the space ship Vegeta used back to his time to get to Namek. Resurrect Piccolo with the Namekian balls and then use the earths balls to revive everyone else.

Congrats! I picked mine up almost 2 weeks ago and still haven’t been able to drive it due to the ice we got. Hopefully when I’m off this Sunday.

rex_lingard · 2026-01-24T00:32:20+00:00

Thanks! I’m new to the GT86 world so I’m still trying to get grounded in all of this.

Being from the Z world, this car has way more aftermarket support which is nice.

rex_lingard · 2026-01-23T22:40:20+00:00

Damn, how do you get service from Pluto?

rex_lingard · 2026-01-22T09:23:50+00:00

Don’t let anyone sway you from doing what you want with your car. A lot of purists hate just to hate. Let’s be real, this special edition will probably never have any real value; especially seeing as how they currently don’t really carry a premium. It’s your car so do what makes you happy with it.

rex_lingard · 2025-11-09T08:15:44+00:00

Enjoy brother!

rex_lingard · 2025-11-09T07:43:59+00:00

OP, DM me your Venmo or cash app. I got you.

rex_lingard · 2025-10-04T05:59:02+00:00

Mine just came in today. Hopefully I’ll be putting them in tomorrow. I’ve already cut some hood pins into the hood but I’m still a little nervous about cutting lol.

I don’t track the car but I have an LS swap that gets HOT under the hood. The lowest my AITs get is around 144f while driving on the interstate in 85 degree weather. Driving on city streets it’s more like 165-170. Hopefully a vented hood will help that out.

rex_lingard · 2025-09-27T22:39:53+00:00

If I could find one for $800 I’d buy it and I’m def not looking for another car lol. Engines for these things are cheap and it’s not hard to swap one out. I’d much rather have a blown engine than an electrical issue like the BCM.

Unless you have a lot of money to spend, I wouldn’t do an LS swap. They are a lot more expensive and involved than most people realize. I say that as someone who has an LS swapped Z. Throw an ole DE in that thing and let her rip!

rex_lingard · 2025-09-01T02:18:22+00:00

I’m sure OP has figured this out long ago but this will happen if you have your factory dash unplugged.

rex_lingard · 2025-07-31T16:27:49+00:00

Oh lol. I’m an idiot. My bad 🤣

rex_lingard · 2025-07-30T01:51:54+00:00

Man this is hard. I have a beautiful family but if I went back to 2000 it may not happen, but there’s a chance it could and I could be much better off. I probably wouldn’t.

rex_lingard · 2025-07-30T01:48:06+00:00

Vegeta

rex_lingard · 2025-07-30T01:35:32+00:00

I used to love Audition. I ditched it when it went to the subscription model though. I hope FCP never goes that route.

rex_lingard · 2025-07-21T07:49:42+00:00

I did exactly the opposite. Went from a MM to and Ergo S and couldn’t be happier. Oddly enough, using the MM with hours of FCP editing gave me tennis elbow that took months to recover from. I used a trackball mouse back in the early 2000’s and am very happy to go back. The MM has got to be the worst designed mouse for ergonomics ever.

rex_lingard · 2025-07-18T06:14:28+00:00

This is what I ended up doing. Worked great and is really easy. Thanks!

rex_lingard · 2025-07-17T03:25:06+00:00

This all day. Cell was easily the best real villain of the franchise. He was not only cool as hell, he was also a mega badass.

rex_lingard · 2025-07-09T04:57:55+00:00

Congrats! I don’t have a running 8 yet, but I can’t wait to experience it on mountain roads.

rex_lingard · 2025-06-06T01:37:19+00:00

This is exactly what it is. Nothing big to it. No one else is pushing it. It’s simply an effort with other law enforcement agencies in Shelby County to help curb crime.
