So... I was just at TX2k11 in Houston.
 
Shit was crazy. I'm certainly going back every year I possibly can. My car was too slow to even try to be a camera car for some of the "Test and Compare" on the streets.

Road course was a blast.

wimminz at bikini contest were hot.

Some of the "street" cars ran wicked times in the 1/4.

Anyway pictures I took.

JohnVon let one of his buddies try his bored, stroked, nitrous, jet engine(no, that's not a joke) Hayabusa on the track, it didn't go well.

Not my pics:

SW, someone called him out but he was drunk. They unloaded his Underground Racing Superleggera and a buddy of his drove instead. He later passed out inside his trailer.

There's video floating around of this, guy attempts burnout in Z06, fails, runs into concrete wall.

That would be tons of fun to do. Did you take your car down the track at all?

Step 1: Buy Corvette
Step 2: Bring it to TX2k11
Step 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyB4lejOtgA

No, I didn't run down the strip. I did get 90 minutes of driving time on the road course and another 30 of riding along in a GT-R

Yes I did, she was freaking out when her car got dyno'd.

That gallant looked like the biggest POS ever. It was so dented they called it "The Golfball". It made that number breaking up bad at like 6500 and was still climbing.

This group of pictures just further reinforces Texas' state motto... Texas - We will put an LS motor into ANYTHING.

She was cool, just got really nervous when her car was on the rollers, the guy she was there with kept cranking the boost controller up after each pull.

That 711 whp Evo DID WORK on a lot of people before the dyno day.

This video sums up the weekend...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tn_TD...embedded#at=25

But they took the time to line all the worm clamps up!

That car actually broke the first night out, the seals on the water pump blew out.

IDK, there's only so many ways to fit a turbo system into a car like that, those guys need to grow the eff up and get over themselves. These kits are cool as shit.

Exactly.

Re: So... I was just at TX2k11 in Houston.
 
That jet engine on the bike is such a gimmick. It's an RC jet turbine, costs about $5000 for the biggest you can get and only produces 45 pounds of thrust. Great for a model airplane, pretty silly for a 400 pound motorcycle.

Re: So... I was just at TX2k11 in Houston.
 
He has it on there as a gimmick... but that doesn't make it any less awesome looking when it's on at night. At full throttle it would push him on his bike just fast enough to stay stable.

Re: So... I was just at TX2k11 in Houston.
 
There was one of the "Nera" cars there as well, but they didn't take it out to play as no one seemed worthy... Supposedly it was around 1800whp on racegas.
