The rearend of the car looks good, to bad the only view you will be seeing is the dirty rearend of the little black Vette that could
Sounds good! Yeah as much as I should give up the system and reveal the full potential of this car. I just cant seem to part with it. All in All its nice being able to out run 90% of the cars on the road and still boom when I need too .



Prob. a good 250-300 lbs worth of **** in the rear-end lol.

Someone is always faster, whether I have the system in it or not!

We will be in touch, looking forward to it


DJ You will be in the loop.

I honestly have to object for their being video of the race, After what I have been going though on HPD I perfer to keep all "cameras" out (unless completely edited) off the net.

just look at the system as being a weight added to keep the rear tires planted, system ftw

I know of a C5 vette that'll run you GZ06 if Powell dosen't. It's only putting a measley 6 to the wheels, but It'll still run you.

I think ive called John out from a roll about a billion times, and yet to get a yes. We can do it on motor vs motor or nitrous vs nitrous. Hell if I was John I would want revenge from last time he got beat

Honestly the ratio I am running seems ideal for the "perfect" street car.

- After a few test runs this weekend

Sure I can get 1000 to the ground on a dyno and maybe even run a damn good time at the track *cough*

But you and I know track numbers and dynographs dont mean **** when it comes to asphalt.

See you on the streets/we will finalized the details in a pm shortly.

Honestly it sounds like a dang good race. I would say Garrett has a good advantage since he makes more power and has better gearing. But the torque from nitrous and gearing in Matts car should give him the hit. Just so long as he stays ahead and doesn't get realed in. I might have to buy plane tickets to Mexico to watch this. Make sure you keep a few of us in the loop Might be another car or 2 wanting in on some action against Matt...
