Need to get someone to actually tune that vette and utilize the new ems to really get some stuff going. Someone else's base maps clearly aren't going to cut it at this level

People need to stop making excuses, and except what there car ran, If there not happy with the track then why go.
please go to college.

it will help two things:

1) your grammar

2) your understanding of physics

this was exactly my point, beating a dead horse.

Good one....but even if someone else tunes that vette, they wouldnt admit it, and it will still be called an lmr car...

RC was smart to get out of that money pit..


Tony, they still haven't beaten the fastest supra!! They just happened the beat a supra that wasn't run it's best mph at the certain event.



Powell....you are a lightweight!!! Lol

I'm on a car forum, and I could care less how my grammer is. If people don't understand what I write, they don't have to read it. I have taken physics and claiming a 10mph headwind is more powerful then 500rwhp is plain stupid, unless you're going maybe 300mph in a farm truck. I went to College and like most great minds I did not finish, but I make over 3 times what the average college grad. makes. You can claim mom and daddys money, but I have taken alittle bit and turned it into alot! Two companies have only been open less than 2 years, so who needs college???

Owning a fast car is diffrent then reading about a fast car. You can tell me so and so did this and that, but I will always respond I did this and I did that.

Andrew if we can do it in 15 will you double the pay? LOL!

Does your ZR1 have the white outline/black center section style plates? I was pulling out of the neighborhood in Herbie on Friday and saw a black ZR1 go by towards League City and just saw the plate design, but couldn't tell if they were custom or not. Meant to call you but since Herbie didn't get a real exhaust to Saturday I wasn't going to try and talk on the phone with the drone master a cruising LOL!

Since Matt and I are now 3 doors down from each other the neighborhood knows us well, and for the most part on a good note (Thankfully!). Though the stupid black Porsche effect is going to end up with me getting owned regardless. Since mine sounded like a pissed off UPS truck (with straight pipes on) for so long and Matt's being loud most put 2 and 2 together that his black Porsche is actually mine... Plus the golf cart and 4wheeler don't help either, but we TRY to be courteous!

Texas mile, beeville tx!!!-qeghb.jpg

That line basically canceled our next two projects... First 9second hovercraft... Also the other idea was first home built SOHC 4.6ltr Aircraft to break sound barrier... Powell Spaceline's is now the next project... I will argue that spacecraft is NOT an aircraft... Suck it deed restriction and HOA!!!!

Wasn't me, my heep has been sitting on the trailer in my shop for 2 weeks. Finally dropped it off at LMR today to take that junky clutch out of it.

If u do it in 15 minutes, I think you would be taking out some trees in the process.

When something goes flying by at over 200mph, it's impressive. I don't care what kind of car it is or whether it's going 241mph or 246mph.
