Dude! $20! No losing! Only winning! come on, guess something! anything, ie: I was wasted as hell and fcked something up, I was currently doing a Jedi mind trick and magnetized the steel in the trans not letting the clutches disengage. Want another hint? Dont make me up it to $50. <------ this is not the 2nd hint, just motivation. You all are still playing to 20 bucks, If an hour goes buy WITH GUESSES we will start the betting to go up. Use all of the information you can gatherfrom any source. I Don't care how you found out..

First round of guessin is $20 from 7:30 -8:30. The ante will only go up if effort is shown. It then goes to $50 from 8:30 -9:30. EFFORT HAS TO BE SHOWN. If still no answer, but legitimante guesses have been made. The ante goes to $100 FROM 9:30 - 10:30

Do your research, figure it out. free money for you just occupying your time. If this thread takes off, I can't see why I wouldnt feel obligated to up the ante again.

HOWEVER; 11:3O IT IS DONE!!!!

RULES:
1.) I DO NOT LIE
2.) I DO NOT LIE
3 I HAVE PICTURE EVIDENCE
4 The evidence and answer will be publiclyposted tomorrow
5 The answer (if guessed correct will be revealed to the genius today, but to the public tomorrow, pending how long this draws out.
IM JUST TRYING TO HAVE SOME FUN HERE. IM HOPING TO GET EVERYONE OUT OF THEIR WORK MOOD, AND MAYBE PLAY SOME GAMES HERE

AS FAR AS THE RESPONSES GO, AND THE TIME FRAME OF THE WAGERS, A HINT WILL BE DROPPED ACCORDINGLY.

Oh man Oh man, I took a pill last night in which I thought was a tylenol but was and anxiety pill called xanax or something. I don't remember anything from 8:30 on. Since I did not post the hint I promised, or the answer today..........ANTE IS UP TO 100 BONES.Here's the deal though, I found another problem which I already stated wasn't the problem. One of the drums that commonly cracks, cracked. BUT SOMETHING BEFORE THAT DRUM CRACKING FAILED, POSSIBLY CAUSING MORE STRESS. I've ordered the broken drum, new clutches and some other parts that you do not need to know about. Game is still on.

Oh, and for the hint: It's smaller in diameter than the palm of your hand. Unless you are a midget.

A small meteor from outer space punched a small hole in the side of the tranny case and
dented the torque converter?
