He's a real car guy and has been at it for many years.

 

Stop whining and get over it already!

There is a difference between this guy wanting to "show" his car and you "racing" yours. But why do you care what other people think anyway? It doesn't sound like you listen to them...

 

You ignored my post and proved my point. Remember that racing on the street is dangerous the next time somebody posts up about beating someone on the highway on the way home from work or getting a speeding ticket for doing nearly three times the posted limit and you give them an "atta boy". It also wasn't so long ago you and Mark were bragging about coming out to Mt. Vernon and doing some street racing.

 

Actually if you would read...

Mark and I just WON a sanctioned Open road race on public hiways. "I" Have made it clear I would NEVER come up and race. I have said I would come out and check it out but I am not stupid enough to be racing up there. Yes once, over ten years ago I was stoped for doing 145mph in a 55 with no one else around. May have been the reason I got a much smaller ticket and did not go to jail.. Mark and I were offically clocked at 138mph in what was a 140MPH zone for us. Just kills you inside it was legal doesn't it. I might add this car had all the safety equpiment and more then needed for our tech speed.

Eric I have no idea why you go on these endles tiraids. You seem to be the only person that understands your side of the story. I can live with that and have no problem with that at all. I figured you had already went out of your way to ruin this nice thread that I would at least give you some answers to questions you keep saying we are dodging. I have nothing to dodge any more go for it!


For every one else I appoligize for my participation. This is a pet peave of Eric's because we won't come up and street race with him and nothing much more.

Good night all

 

I wasn't talking about your road race. That was a great accomplishment. I have nothing against legal racing. I was at the track (Mission) racing my bike Friday night. Something is getting lost from my brain to the keyboard to your brain. I'll talk with you next time I see you in person.

 

Yea, I think it's the same guy with a C5 at this time, I found this pm from early '03 at vetteforum (notice his site handle was 542C2 at that time).

I never had any doubt, with your own dyno for personal use and a car like that. Simply awesome, i need to win that lottery now. I suppose playing would be the first step

 

I guess it's just me, but personally I wouldn't want a car with that much horsepower unless I was going to be running it down the track. That's too much horsepower to use on the street, and it's not NHRA legal.. so it just makes it a dyno queen. Impressive, but what good is it if you can't use it for anything other than showing of dyno sheets?

 

Its an impressive dyno queen none the less!! But with skinny tires I have to agree with you that it isnt even built to drive on the streets really. Give it to me and I'll put some big *** rear tires on it and drive it for him. givng him full credit for the build of course although arent those small inside? Didnt they do one on American hotrod and it was real tiny inside. Like it wouldnt be real comfortable if you were a tall big man. Better stick with the Camaro..

 

That's really amazing!

He needs a cage... if it slips off the dyno that is.
