That young padawan is exactly the definition of spreading rumors. Im not mad at you though after all it's only the internet lol. What I was getting at in the majority of my posts is that research is necessary on some things. Not the intensive research Rico does(fanatics do that lol) but a little light research. Same goes for your engine thread. You learn more by doing/finding info for yourself. In addition the more you know the better equipped you are to deal with any problems that may arise.

I've been researching what I need and how to do my next engine on my new car for the past six months. I haven't even started saving for the swap yet lol because before I even make that commitment I want to research the crap out of it and make sure I have all my ducks in a row.

A mestre who teaches both Capoeira and Muay Thai? That sounds suspect to me. What style of Capoeira did he teach, where did he teach and what was his name?

There's a girl in my class that traveled to world and trained in Brazil before she moved here. When she first came to class, I thought to myself... "Ok, another flaky chick to spoonfeed and take it easy on...". Man, was I surprised. That girl beat my a$$...

Bahia, huh? Bada$$. Based on that, I can tell that he probably uses the same style I use... Capoeira Angola. The move you described sounds like a Rabo de Arraia into a Au Malandro.

If he pulled that off, he must've been pretty decent. I approve of this friend.

Honda's new NSX plans were also scrapped due to the economy.

Guys. Watch this video. It explains the F1 rules for 2009. It's short and interesting.

It also explains the "boost," which is NOT talking about forced induction to make things extremely clear.
