Black Chevy... Is that an old Cobra we are in up there? What kind of power?

And who/what exactly is UGR? Group of select few? Forum? Shop? Etc?

Do all these nasty roll cars (GTRs/lambos/vipers/etc) back it up at the track or are most of these just HWY kings?

Well that one seems to back it up a tad.

It seemed like it, sweet little car for sure.

That is what I figured for the UGR but was curious.

This picture basically sums up what UGR is:



Their business / package that they offer is arguably second to none when it comes to making exotics rediculously fast and powerful, that they actively buy exotics to modify and sell. They twin turbo all lambos, some ferarris, audi R8's as well as some vipers and Ford GT's.
Hell, if I ever hit the lottery, I'll be making a road trip to them to get one.

There was an LSX FC RX-7, MNIVET, a fast *** GT-R, and JustAFantaZ going at it in deep Mexico. The MNIVET looks like it lost some coolant after he ran that GTR. Hope it wasn't too bad and he's back out later today. ThirdHonk.com crew has some video.

The only reason we tried to run them was they were working ******* amazing on the street Friday night. I was pretty surprised. And since we won on a Radial last year figured why not try them.

1. I agree he should have let out, so should have I on the frontage road. NVRLIFT

2. Our replacement shocks we installed after the first incident were ancient stock gt shocks and the right rear was blown. (you can see that in the vid)

3. How many of you guys talking **** have hit 2 walls and still made the Semi-Finals? How many of you guys have even qualified for tx2k?

Huge thanks to 1bad03snake for loaning us the wheels and tires. we will get them shipped back to you asap!

Also huge thanks to Daniel044 for parts hunting for us. No way we could have done it without you guys!

Parts damaged and replaced in the first accident:
1 Caster camber plate, 3 wheels and tires, 2 rear shocks, 2 rear upper control arms, rear rotors, calipers, pads, brackets, and brake lines all the way to the proportioning valve, 4 Anti roll bar end links, 1 battery and battery box, Alignment.

Parts damaged and replaced in the 2nd accident:
1 wheel and tire
1 caster camber plate
Alignment

Best pass of the weekend 9.70@148. top 4 fastest street car.

This was the only car we got to race on the street. It put 4-5 lengths on us from a 40 roll.
