You ever watch Pride FC?? Those rules were awesome...they fought in a boxing-esque ring enclosure and the rules were a bit different. No elbows but soccer kicks were allowed. Which basically meant, if your opponent is down, you can kick him as much as you want. 
Shoot, here are the differences (Thanks Wikipedia!!)
* PRIDE allows kicking and kneeing the head of a downed opponent who is on his back. This is considered a foul in the Unified Rules, which only allows kicks and knees to the head of a standing opponent.
* PRIDE allows a fighter to stomp the head of a downed opponent. This is considered a foul in the Unified Rules.
* PRIDE allows a fighter to Spike (piledriver) an opponent. This is considered a foul in the Unified Rules.
* PRIDE does not allow elbow strikes to the head of an opponent. The Unified rules allows elbows provided they are not striking directly down with the point of the elbow.
* PRIDE's matches include a ten minute first round, with two minute rest periods. The Unified rules allow rounds no longer than five minutes, with rest periods not exceeding one minute.
* PRIDE's matches are not judged on the ten point must system, rather judges score the whole fight. The Unified rules call for all matches to be judged using the ten point must system.

Pretty much, yeah.The original plan was to continue with PRIDE events (under UFC rules) and have the occasional crossover show. But apparently no television station wanted to air it over in the land of the Rising Sun. So, yes. PRIDE is dead.
But I would still go back through and watch some old PRIDE, I always thought their fighters were top-notch. Here's a quick vid to get ya started...

I don't have speakers here at school, so hopefully the music is good. But man......just watching some of that. I forgot how ******* awesome CroCop was. His takedown defense was officially off the charts.

I used to think that Stabil was a good additive, but i had learned that it will lower your octane. For the last 2 winters i have been using sea foam and i have had zero problems.
Out of curiousty, was anyone thinking of going to brenspeed this saturday?

BTW, no body likes you when you speak of selling your F-body on here
Romone has already told me he would do it. We even got together and took things apart. But then he had to have a buddy fab up some parts to hold the new fog lights in (as the stock fogs just screw into the plastic bumper, and my new ones are not the same size).
I would like Ramone to do it. However as previously stated, he's been too busy/not calling me back, so I'm not sure what I'm gonna do

D, it won't be a problem. There's a couple versions of the picture, I'll send you all I have. Just send me your email. Either on the board, or via PM if you don't want it public.

However this is going to be VERY basic. I have never welded before in my life, and I'm confident I could do it. Its just going to be a very small tack weld. Honestly, I think it could probably be done without welding at all with just some holes drilled for some bolts.
I just need to get ahold of Romone somehow so we can figure out something...
