    Elio Motors Momentum V84

    What about the 100 Elios that were supposed to be going to fleet customers this month? I don't really care about the color at this point. Just build it, and they will come. Don't get me wrong. I love the concept, but something needs to happen besides marketing. I've have money tied up in this...

    So true. It's gone. Sometimes I forget I'm not just talking to friends here. Thanks for reminding me.

    More like fragmentation instead of mushroom. 100% copper. Harder and lighter than lead. Once penetration is achieved, pieces of the round would be going in all directions, without over penetration of the base of those tips. We don't want an exit possibly going into a neighbor's house:eek:. May...

    How do they feed through a semi-auto? Any problems? Looks like a MEAN round.

    Closer Look At The E1c

    Not an electrician myself, but have sold industrial electrical for over 15 years, I've been to many lighting classes, and would like to know what you think of LED driver failures? Working in the field, you should be seeing some of that now. Actually, lighting reps. are starting to push thier...

    E1c Unveiled

    Unbelievable! my best friend has a Hawk GT! He does want to sell it because we just don't ride anymore. My VT also has the tech package, But I drove two hours one way (Johonson City, TN) to get this one. Not only a 6MT, but has the B&M Racing shifter option. the throws are short and close, plus...

    Ha! You haven't been in a current turbo, have you? I had an 86 Dodge Daytona Turbo Z long ago, and would agree with you.....then {still one of the favorite cars I've ever owned}.. The new turbos have nearly no lag. Human senses can barely notice any lag. Come to E. TN, and it would be my honor...

    E1c Unveiled

    If you liked them, get another one. 2016 is the last year for them in the U.S. Very sad. They are so different from most anything else out there for the money.It's like a go cart on steroids. I guess we should face the fact that anything quirkey and unusual appeals to most of us Elioers.Or maybe...

    E1c Unveiled

    Hey Maurtis. I know you had a Veloster NA at one time, and I have the turbo version. I installed a K&N Typhoon system. Replacing everything, including the air box all the way back to the intake on the motor, that {according to K&N} adds 13 HP. Turbos love to be fed air, and it made an increase...

    Okay, you got me. Had an "ear worm" the day I set up my account here. My avatar and screen name combined represent this song. Maybe it will stick in your head like it was in mine that day. But maybe you have to be southern raised (and I ain't talkin bout So. Cal.} to even know it.;)...

    Exactly. You would grab your home defense weapon and go! Also, hearing protection would be a handicap for you. Why would you want to take away one of your primary threat detection senses? I don't know about you, but if someone pointed even a .22 at me, I would probably do a number 5 in my pants...

    .357s are great. I have an S&W 686+ with a 6'' barrel. Beutiful and effective. But I've heard discharging a . 357 indoors can permanantly damage your hearing. So, for home defense I keep it loaded with .38 special +P. Still plenty of stopping power, but shouldn't make you deaf the rest of your...

    I must say, the Elio in black looks very sleek. Black isn't a color I want, because it's hot in the summer, and shows every spec of dirt. but dang! That is sharp if perfectly clean.

    La Auto Show 2016 - Guess The Color.

    Another plus with basic, non-metallic black is touch up paint is cheap and plentiful for chips and scratches. You can even get it at Wallyworld. Agreed on the steel body panels. Some shapes just aren't friendly for mass production of either of those materials. For instance, I had a '94 Z28...

    Happy Halloween!!

    We kinda already do that. First off, we learned years ago not to wait for a knock on the door. The door just stays open all evening. You'll let all the heat out of your house pretty quick. With the numbers we get here, we put lawn chairs at the end of our driveway and hand out candy there. I...

    Very cool of you Jim. Not even at home, and still ready for trick or treaters. Straight up move on your part. Hats off to you in my book.;)

    Happy Halloween!!

    Anyone else have huge amounts of trick or treaters? We have 500-800 per year. It looks like something out of the movies in this normally quiet neiborhood. Here are some pictures. This is when it first gets going. I caught this sunset soon after that. And here are things in full...
