I'm looking for that thread where it's a Japanese game show or something and they wheel an RC166 or somesuch loud as hell bike in and start it. In the studio.
Where is it? I must not be doing something right, the search function usually works for me.

If you cannot Debauch because you get an IP blacklist error, try Debauching again time. It may work immediately, it may take a few attempts. It will work eventually, I don't think I had to click debauch more than three times. Someone is overzealous at our hosting company, but only on the first couple of attempts.
If you have problems logging in, posting, or doing anything else, please get in touch.
You know the email (if you don't, see in the registration info below), you know where to find the Administerrerrerr on the Midget Circus.
Some unpleasant miscreant was firing incessant database queries at our server, which forced the Legal Department of our hosting company, via their Abuse subdivision, to shut us down. No I have none.
All I can do it button the hatches, and tighten up a few things. Such as time limits on how long you may take to compose a post and hit Debauch! As of 24/01/10, I've set that at 30 minutes for now.
To restrict further overloads, any unregistered users had to be locked out.
How do we know who is or isn't an unregistered user?
By forcing anyone who wants in to Log In.
Is that annoying?
Yes. But there's only so much the Administerrerrerr can do to keep this place running.
Again, if you have any problems: get in touch.

First fix:
Because the board got shutdown again because of a load of database, I had to fettle with the settings again.
As part of that, the server no longer stores what topics you have or haven't read.
IT IS STILL RECORDED!
But now, that information lives in a delicious cookie, rather than the forum database.
Upside: this should reduce the load of database.
Downside: if you use multiple devices to access the board, or you reject delicious cookies, you won't always have that information cookie. But the New Posts feature should take care of that.
PLEASE NOTIFY THE ADMINISTERRERRERR ABOUT ANY PROBLEMS!
- open the menu at the top
- hit New Posts to see what's actually new and browse the new stuff from there
- go back to the Forum Index
- open the menu at the top again
- click Mark forums read
this will zero the unread anything for you, so you can strive forth into the exciting world of the new cookie thing.

Seriously?Jonny wrote:... and they end up dismantling the whole machine. The money shot really is the YouTube vid that Zim posted, though.
Is that, perhaps, on youtube somewhere, too?
While it makes me cringe that a piece of history like that should be thus violated for a mere TV show, I'd love to see the guts of that motor...
If there were absolutely anything to be afraid of, don't you think I would have worn pants?

The book, Stealing Speed, touches on it somewhat, but the book is mainly about 2-strokes and their development for racing.
The 166 and variants were developed to turn higher speeds to generate more power to compete against the 2t's. One of those things you never think about really, until you see the whole picture.
I forget who wrote the book now, but it's only been out a year or so. Awesome book. I highly recommend it to anyone here.
