How long will it take for this yellow shit 2 go away?

And also, what could i do 2 avoid further corosion?

dragon084

i've got a set of 10yr old pinseekers irons, various Taylor Made

woods, a ADAMS tight lies 7 Iron, and a couple of fairway woods.

dragon084

I re-aranged my frog tank. Took out the pebbles, replaced them with

blue and green sand + some simulated grass and 2 more green

frogs. They only cost 2.99 for the white frogs and 1.69 for the

green ones. I dont feel so bad after paying a lot for a woodgrain

wheel while i can get an amphibian for less than 5 dollars.

ghost_masterCL

whats the deal with all the white specks on the front bumper in the AFTER pictures?

dragon084

it was raining today

SooDARK

still very shitty but better than the other one

SooDARK

BTW-looks like an 80 year old womens bag with all those woods

SooDARK

best quote evAr!!!!!!!

BTW the grill looks tight!

dragon084

thanks for the feedback. I really appretiate a postive response.

I remember a few weeks or about a month back, this dude named

Phil2 was flaming every1. It was around the time sickacuraCL 1st

came around. Its nice 2 c people having fun with this site while

having a good sense of humor w/o being a rude fuck.

BTW anyway have any corosion tips? i'm lookin to keep my

battery terminal crispy like a fresh unopened box of crayons.

dragon084

o yeah. i have been working on my shot with woods. I've been

slicing and hooking too much. My approach shots and Par 3

holes have not given me as much trouble as my long balls. Anyone

got any tips? Thats basically my reason for having so many woods.

SooDARK

Take lessons

Do you slice or hook more often?

Theres about a million things you can do to try and eliminate both.

1)strengthen or weaken your grip depending on if you slice or hook more often.
2)changed your stance (front foot closer to ball =hook stance, back foot closer = slice stance
3)change the ball position. Sometimes a slice means your late with the clubhead and/or ahead with the hands. A hook can mean you're clubhead is early and hands are late.

damn theres too much I could say.... got any more specific questions??

xrunner86x

You might try a wire brush to remove the corrosion, and put some lithium or other heavy grease on the terminals to prevent further corrosion.

SooDARK

oh BTW you hopefully know this..., but some people don't, so I'll say it.

If you hook the ball, the club head is usually coming to far from the inside, then outside after the ball.... and a slice is from outside to inside...or across the ball
( : <--- = hook
) : <--- = slice

the 2 dots are your feet, and the line is your clubs path. You want it to be closer to the hook path than the slice path, but not too much. That should give you a nice little draw

dragon084

i am pretty sure its a grip issue. I'm gonna head out to the range

after my group tomorrow. I have like 7 woods in my bag, I'm gonna

feel them out and then i'll let you know which i keep. Thx for the

little lesson, golfs one of my favorite sports.

dragon084

some one said something about taking a penny and putting it

by the battery terminals. I dont buy this idea at all. Where would

I go to get lithium or "heavy grease"? I dont like the look of this

yellow shit that the weed man sprayed on the battery.

dragon084

i swing Righty

so wouldnt it be

: ) - slice

: ( - hook

?????????

SooDARK

yeah woops, I'm a lefty

You got it backwards tho switch the hook and slice with the pics you made

: ) = hook
: ( = slice

BTW- whats your handicapp? or what do you usually shoot?

dragon084

i havent played more than 10 times on a course (full 18).

but i'd say i shoot horrible numbers. i cant really give an average

of my score cuz its always different. i have yet 2 get fully into

the sport and calculated my handicap. I'm lucky if i shoot

less than 7-8 bogeys. I try 2 stay close to par. never hit a birdy

yet. BTW i hate to get off topic this golf part should b in ramblings

BUT is the penny thing true?

SooDARK

I forget what the shit was called, but at the golf course I used to work at, we had this stuff you spray on the battery lines and it eats all the corrosion away.

Oh and don't even worry about slicing/hooking if you've only played 10 times Just try to make decent contact You'll get the feel for where the balls gonna go once you start playing on a regular basis.

dragon084

i cant wait to get out there this summer.

i think im gonna tape a penny to my battery 2 c if anything happens

white3.0

Cool lookin frog

xrunner86x

If you have any bearing grease in your garage that should be fine, but you should find lithium grease at any automotive or hardware store.

dragon084

african clawed frog.

they have 3 black claws on theyre back "hands".

i have 2 white and 4 green.

can anyone back up the penny thing?

So funny!!! BTW, why are you showing all of us your clubs and frog. I'm not trying to be a dick at all, but its kinda random, or have you previously posted something i missed? I think that grill looks too much like a heating/air conditioning vent for me though, much better than the gold one though:P
BTW, what kinda shit do those frogs eat, they seem preatty cool?

dragon084

they eat Bloodworms. the worms are like 3-5 cm long.

they eat very little. No one has answered my question yet.

I forget who posted this sill Info, but, what kinda idea is it

that a penny would take away from the corosion of a battery terminal?

dragon084

i put the off-topic shit in the post just 2 familiarize you all with who

i am and what my interests are. This site is one of my many hobbies.

I have a very deep love for the 1st Gen CL. I just put my life into

everything I do. I donno what it is, maybe its cuz I stopped burnin'

ghost_masterCL

uhm.. the penny thing works, but you ahve to put it very close to where it would normally corrode. the thing is(and I learned this in chemistry last semester), the easiest element to break down will be the first one to break down. The penny being copper will break down increadibly easily. Something about a low corrosion rate. anyways.. the copper will react with the "bad" elements that would normally corrode the battery because the elements are lazy and want to do as little work as possible ( as you can tell I'm not going to major in chemistry), so they go for the penny instead of the battery heads.

OR you could just put some baking soda on teh battery and wash it off every once in a while. If you read the manual for our cars you would know that already .

dragon084

so the penny has to be close to the positive terminal?

dragon084

can i glue it to the battery of will i need to rotate it with fresh pennies

ghost_masterCL

you can tape it or glue it. as long as it's close to the proper terminal. I suggest just taping it, since it's so small, just change it out once the penny gets too corooded.

1st_gen

put ur stok grill back on..

"I dont feel so bad after paying a lot for a woodgrain

thats hilarious
definately the best quote evar

dragon084

i dont have it any more. i gave it to my friend who

drives a 2.2 97 black CL. he baught it off of blazin cl.

U proly dont know who he is/was with your 3mo. of a-cl.com exp.

his grille was just silver mesh. i swapped him my 99 grille

just before i went away to Uhart. I then took his grille and put it

on my car. now i have my car and made this grille. i think it looks

str8. My friend just got chrome 19''s. He said they are lowenharts.

I'm gonna have to take some pix, havent seen the wheels yet

but he took the lowering springs off so it'll look like a 4x4.



Wow, i really cant believe that the penny thing will work. So to

get this yellow shit off, do ya'll think i should use soap and water

or something else?

ghost_masterCL

just put some baking soda on it, then spray it off, simple as that.

wilp99

hey dogg,... ur frog looks dead. when i saw the gold grille w/ the little clubs in them i was like what the hell was he thinkin. but it looks totally different w the black over the same grille. looks tight.

dragon084

the white frog, yeah, he was hiding. I made hiding spots for them

as they recommended that i do. Thx for the complements

on the grille. Another question, if i "spray" something off of the battery,

wouldnt i be risking electricution or possibly a short.

wilp99

no. the yellow stuff is an anticorision spray. leave on ur connections and take a wire brush to where ever u dont want to see the yellow stuff.

dragon084

if something is wetted on the battery, can it zap me?

or is that only if i have the pos and neg 2 gether
