That is by the dumbest thing I have ever read. I have a buddy that has ran every mile since before SW ran his time. he has ran within 2mph ever time he has been, with out adding any hp both tracks. the car has gone a best of 199 and never slow then 195. People need to stop making excuses, and except what there car ran, If there not happy with the track then why go.

You do realize that wind resistance is an exponential thing, right? The faster you go, the worse it gets by more than a factor of speed alone. Speed is linear, wind resistance jumps up much faster, they are not relative. 200 mph is one thing, but 240+ mph is an entirely different ballpark. Not even comparable in terms of forces.
Who needs physics when you've got a friend that knows a guy who...

I've been wrong plenty of times (but also been right plenty of times) but you know if I had a chump change $1000 bet according to Josh I would have paid it, same with Matt. The money isn't a big thing to us, you and I know that. We could careless, but it's the fact that we didn't get paid on such a chump change bet according to Josh. The last few times we've been to Vegas in the last year that extra $1k would have made for an extra hour at the craps table... Just saying!

And I'm sure someone will bring up the "Well why don't you all build one if it's not a problem of money?" Well we could and have talked about it, but there are plenty of other reasons why it's not worth it. Matt and I both recently moved to new houses, so we are busy changing things at the houses (pool, patio, etc) and we are also getting more rental properties. I'd rather make money not scare (waste) money LOL!

If we would have lost and not paid you and a few others would be the first to talk **** since they are the new go to shop if you need anything. It's funny how Tyler, Gray, you, etc.. will all bad mouth and bring up stories about the shop yet on here it's like omg the ***** taste so good... Their work is bad *** and I've never doubted that. Hell I've used Josh to weld stuff for me multiple times. Remember though at the shop he was the one that was yelling and screaming he would take anyone's bet. Paul, Jordan, Steven, Joe, etc. were all there to hear it in person when he said he would match any bet. I'm sorry you weren't there to hear it...

We need to get all of the **** talkers on this site together (without alcohol) and laugh at how courteous our conversation is.

Powell, I believe Duy had a bet in that thread too. Something about a Supra would go faster than LMR? He was wrong, and you don't see LMR bring it up every time the mile is mentioned.
As for the go-to shop of my choice, I believe it is in my own back yard. I also have my own LLC, so I buy parts at cost through my own business. I am friends with the LMR guys though, and Joe does my tuning. My HOA wouldn't like it if I had a dynojet in my own backyard.
Let it go man. We've all known eachother over a decade now, the childish stuff will seem very silly once you grow up a little more. You've always been mouthy, but I can tell you are mellowing out a little more with age. haha
Peace!

It is funny though remember Peter Blach (HoustonT) and I use to just go back and fourth on the forums 24/7. You know we met at TX2K8 for the first time and since then we've been friends since. Duy and I were the same, but you know I've been out to bars and even Vegas with him (long story short Duy made me look like a LIGHT weight

Josh and I have gone back and fourth on the forums since I was 17. Hell at MTI, LMR, etc... even. But he's also helped me multiple times at HMP, HRP, etc with my old car and even my current car. He's dropped what he's doing to come bs and show me some of the shop projects along side with Steven. The guys at LMR are all good people, and I've NEVER said they weren't. Hell during all the smack talk and drama a year or two ago I was eating lunch with all the guys up there.

I REALLY hope that was the last of them! Last weekend was the worst mosquito infestation I've ever seen. My Cutter helped out a lot though!
