Nice, I don't have the time to play I wish I did.  It is long but very fun.
 
Now you gave me a GIF of what started me on becoming a gearhead when I was a kid.  Wanted that car since I was 7 years old.  73 Falcon, 351 Cleveland and a Weiand blower   Actually there is a blower made by Mercedes with a magnetic switch for enabling the blocker, otherwise the pulley spins freely and has a secondary air intake, so you CAN make the impossible MadMax blower now, which is just too cool!
 
Man,. now I gotta watch the original again, maybe RoadWarrior too.....I might cry when they blow up the Falcon in RoadWarrior though.




Yeah, The Mad Max Movie series got me started on ALL this Twin-Turbo, Supercharged, Nitrous Insanity that I've been doing for Years!
 
Thunderdome is Still my favorite, Only because of this Scene:

I bought a DICE/LN2 pot kit from BartX over at OCN, it seems pretty nice (and it was only $125 USD). 
Can't wait to try it out with some DICE. Though I still need to get around to insulating the board properly first.
 
(Full kit)
Comes with pretty much everything needed to get set up (Various sizes of neoprene insulation, retention bracket, backplate & mounting hardware). The base of the pot weighs a solid 1kg.

(Installed on the board)

Looks like it should work well on DICE, Let us know what kind of OC's you get out of your Xeon X5650 Chip.

Will do! I already know what it can do though, so I need to pick up a 980X/965 EE or something to really get the most out of it. 
But it'll be a little while before I can use it because I still need to set up my workstation area.
 
And I've gotten the neoprene all cut out to size, still need to get some kneadable eraser for the detailed insulation.

That is downright nifty! E7621, nice to see that board again, such a beastly board.
 
Looking forward to seeing some subzero runs.

Alright Guys, I think the time is about right to sell my Four Titan X HC's (Put them in the EVGA Marketplace Today...).
 
After that is accomplished, I've been thinking about messing around again with my Kingpin F1 Dragon CPU Pot for some DICE Benches after I find a Single Card (Type/Brand to be determined) to use with either my ASETEK SS Phase Change or Kingpin Tek-9 FAT 6.0 Graphics Pot (Haven't Decided Yet) while Pondering What Other New "Experiments" to perform.

 
You Never Know What I'll come up with, Especially when I get inspired on My Favorite Dark-of-the-Night Holiday...."Halloween"!

Sad to see that rig go, it was really killer, but I will always stay tuned for your next idea to get things colder!

Thanks Dave, I'm always thinking of what to come up with Next!
 
In the Meantime, I'm having a LOT of difficulty with Mad Max in the "Gas Town" O-Ring Race that's hard to explain until you actually get to the point of running in it!

Hmm haven't gotten near there yet.  Last time I played I wandered aimlessly around the desert killing roving patrols, just because.
Do you do your steering with the KB or do you have a game pad of some sort for it?  I'm still kinda awkward driving, but man that game is FUN.
