In 2000 I signed up for an ebay account, tried to use kurtus as a user name but that was taken so being a young "bc" resident who at the time loved the bud(lets be honest...still do) picked this as a screen name . I'm not fond of it later on in life but it is what I started with and now I am sticking to it for all forums that I visit, just makes it easier for people to follow if need be.

Steering with the brakes, 18-20 mph, 230 plus feet and that sled is about 30,000 lbs. Helmets aren't required in that class, just a remote kill switch for the sled operator and a back rest to keep you from getting bucked off the seat and run over by the sled.

When I sold that tractor, the new guy put a much larger BBC in it, a cage, and a paint job. The cage is hideous looking and a liked the ratty look.......

Dezfan = Desert Fanatic.

I grew up in the desert and just about everything we did revolved around off road racing, jeep runs, riding my quad, poker runs, Glamis sand dunes, etc..

Later I put on an annual Poker Run on Thanksgiving Weekend and it made me 3-4 grand for a one day event. So I started Dezfan Ind. as a side business so I could file taxes and have some write offs.

And it so happens my current car, a 2002 Civic hatch is a EP chassis code, and EP stands for electric powered here in the hobby world. I'm universal!

and listening to albums, extended play (EP)

OTHG= motocross club I race with, bronco is the nickname my racing buddies gave me for some reason, and 82 is my racing number so, OTHGbronco82 it is.OTHG stands for Over the Hill Gang, it's more of a family friendly racing club than some of the other ones out there.

Man I got some "repost crap" when I made the same topic post a while back, lol! I guess it has been long enough now that it is ok. Mine came from my online gaming name. I got into online gaming and joined a competitive gaming clan. My friend got me into it and he was the head of a clan and his game name was "Bishop". And because I was a noob and his frind mine was dubbed "Rook" as in Rookie and and another chess piece name to go with his Bishop. It was for a first person WW2 based 6 on 6 capture the flag type of game. I got real into it and played in many leagues. The game is now dead and i have moved on to others. But it still is my favorite of all time. So many good nights spent playing and just talking to friends from all over the world (in talk programs like TeamSpeak, etc). The game was DOD source, a Half life based game like Counterstrike, but WW2 based. Last time I played we won a league championship and the league was cancelled due to too many complaints of cheating and hacking even with the tons of anti cheat programs running. Some people did not believe some people could play that well without cheating and the league moderators got tired of trying to research the complaints with them never coming up with anything. A few did cheat but no one on my team(s) were ever doing it. Anyways I miss that game and the fun I had with it. None of the games since have led me to such good times just talking to people and having fun. It was seriously like a second job with all of the scrimmages and practices and preparing we did. That was the bad part. To do that well you had to put in a bunch of time. The casual times of just playing with friends was the best part and all I do now.
