Cool stuff guys! 240 is moving!
LOL! G-Force shot for 240mph and got it first time out. LMR shot for 260, first time out and got 215mph. I think it has been there about 4 times and still 14mph short of what they promissed us on there first outing. Also we are missing $1000 from the bet that was made, **** we should have double down each time and I think we would have $8k by now. I know we would have never has seen the money, but it nice to know who will welch on a bet. Funny how $1000 was chump change untill it has to be payed

And don't forget all the wind tunnel testings they did with GM..


With over 2000 Hp and that big *** wing in the back, and they couldn't even beat a supra made in 1993 with NO aerodynamic enhancements to the car,but a little chin spoiler.. Didn't they made fun of SW when he added that wing in his supra??


Mad respect to Gforce!!

I was shocked when I seen a nascar there and then a SBC F2 to boot.. LOL.

edit: I thought for sure the driver told me F3, but just seen the dyno vid said F2.

Nice to see you all got the Alpha12 car out there! I met Martin back last October or the Mile prior when he had the yellow 996TT out there. Car ran really good and the GT-R's you all have are def. putting it down!

Larry it was a F-2 Procharger but it might become a F-3 soon. We need more power and aero.

On the 232 pass we used the chute on the 240 pass greg wanted to see if it would stop. He slid into the grass at the end for about 10 feet. Crazy SOB!
