Nate has been in my old stealth on C-16 with the nitrous armed, good times.

Its cool but when you get back in your car it does make it feel soooo slow.. I actually lost interest in cars hahaha It took me a yr or so to get back that feeling that 500hp was kinda fun! up untill then 500hp cars were kinda boring..

Jake and Mark?

We did a couple pulls in my car awhile back! I'd give you another but the car isn't running at full potential right now. Still has a small missfire sometimes.

yea that was fun, it sparked some good interest in my own car, but i was under the impression it wasn't running up to full potential at that point either. however it was still very fun

also i think i would also like some good fun corners as well, but thats up to who ever is willing to offer up a ride.

Yeah you're right, it wasn't running perfect (I'd guess more around 500hp maybe), but it was still quick enough to run that 10.93 a couple days later, and I really didn't change all that much from when we did our pulls, so it was apparently still running OK.

Good fun corners on the street??? Sounds like a cool idea.......

Come up to a track day at the brainerd road course. I will take you for a ride.

I hate giving people rides for the reason that they have inn their minds these high hopes of what xxxx hp will feel like, and it always feels slow.

Exactly. My car is around 450 whp and doesn't seem fast to me.

well thats cause your used to it, i think its like that for almost everyone who has something fast for a while.

but im not accustomed to 450 whp so that for me would be fast, and i know my car will be close.

a ride in a viper would be extremly fun, if your going to the track sometime and wouldnt mind having somone riding with i will totaly take you up on that

tehehodi · 09-11-2009

randy, i thought your car felt pretty fast, well when you lauched it anyway....

turbotalon1g · 09-11-2009

I got a ride in the old silver bullet and loved it.
but the sound made me cum so i couldn't concentrate on the speed when i did i was a little scared and then I....

oh yeah, viper = 16g E85 car.

See if your GF agrees

I will take anyone for a ride around the road course at BIR if they are there when I am racing.

My Wife does agree, plus she likes the '05 vipers a bit better than the old vipers so keep buying and selling till you can make more money.

Plus if she gets bored of my DSM there is always my gorgeous Z car that is she working on while I am away.

Hmmm, stealth vs. civic good times.

Could have had a 05 but Gen2 (96-02) > Gen 3 (03-06). The newer style doesn't cost any more and is generally in less demand. Could have had a 04 with 10k on it locally for the same price as my 02 with 7k I got in Chicago. My car was considered a steal at the time.

Didn't buy my car to have the fastest thing around. Wanted something fairly quick and relaible. If I want to make it faster, I could get it past 600whp without even having to worry about the reliability side or having to worry about the tune on the car.

BTW, I barely ever talk about my car...

For me, I think riding in a "stronger or better" vehicle will give me more inspiration to build my car. Even if it's not "fast", I will love my car even more just because I know where I'm at with other cars out there.

I agree with you. sometimes when I'm not very motivated to work on my car it's nice to get a ride in someones car that is faster than mine. that makes me want to get my car going again and do what I can to make it faster
