Love it, I also like some of the other ones I heard...
dont run out of traction, asphalt and ideas at the same time... Don't brake until you see God, just don't meet him... There are others but they escape me at the moment...

Actually, Robert, did you get a cage? you know you need one under 10.99 right, haha Quote:
and yes.. Doug was funny, there is no first gear if you are in boost, second not much better and if I am in 3rd cruising I can blip the throttle and lay rubber all the way up to 70mph. What gets me is that 60-90 in literally 1.5 seconds... thats how that DFW cop got me, he had to be really quick on his trigger to catch that speed burst cause i braked right after.... GOOD LUCK Robert! Quote:
this makes me happy |

I'd love to see you below 10.99....would be freaking COOL.
Yeah...Kyle's car...1st 2nd 3rd in NO time...and then it's OH SHIT....I'm kinda going REALLY fast in a place that ran out of road MUCH faster than I thought!!! LMAO! And yeah...I saw him pull out and knew he was going to come for me or that Jeep. Well, I pulled over (kinda quickly) and he went flyin' by nabbing that Jeep.... |

I want to see how far along Brandi is, but other than driving it, any dyno results and things are going to be probably no earlier than Friday... Corey is going to do the break-in before strapping her down and hammering on'er...
We discussed and agreed, with him building this type of high end build, he would do the break in... He'll fire her off with the baseline tune, put her on the rollers just to make sure everything is good to go, and then drive her for a few days, oil changes etc, and then when he feels it's time, he'll strap her down and creep up to the tune... It's a pretty amazing process, and I feel good having him take care of it... much better than some place building it, strapping her down and thrashing on her right away...
