  1. See the drag guys have to spend over 5K+ after bolt ons to knock seconds off their 1/4 mile time. Whereas turning requires a change in tire pressures, or alignment when it comes to winning or looseing. To each their own when it comes to racing and their cars, but let's face it. There is only so much you can do to go fast in a straight line. Then once your out of money you continue to do the same thing over and over and over again expecting a different result and...well...you know the rest. Although it would be entertaining to have a 4 run autocross with a 5th run down a 1/4 mile which would be added to your best of the 4 initial runs. Best of both worlds and you don't get sick of driving in a straight line.
  2. NOOOOO I was just thinking about buying this in 2.3T form. Bah, snooze ya lose I guess. GL with the project.
  3. Another little thing are the wheel speed sensors that they have had numerous TSB's on. Otherwise my boss has a '03 Yukon that he usues to tow his toys and has had 0 issues trans wise and motor wise. He also is very religious on maintenance.
  4. I kinda got that feeling after driving the red car on coilovers to Port Clinton, but I'm at a point where I'm just ready for a second car that is more useful than an MR2. I still love driving it, but I do miss A/C and a little more forgiving suspension.

    Saturday 7-10

    Brakes on Erica's Dad's Saturn Using my free tickets to the Arthritis Show Plopping a camping chair on a piece of grass near 161 and Busch to watch some old school muscle with Erica and friends.
  6. LMAO OMG IVE SEEN THE BATMOBILE MUST MAKE 8TH THREAD ABOUT IT!!! Wonder what he is replacing it with.
  7. I hope for the sake of your reputation that this was not the drifting Impala that just about smacked head on with a Civic at Circuit City last weekend/was acting like a total Jackass. If not...welcome.
  8. Welcome Rich, I recognize your vehicles. Seen you on the autocross forums etc...
  9. I will verify octanes and prices, but Keith's Sunoco on Indianola Avenue just South of Cooke Road has race fuel. I know they have 110 and 116, they mentioned one other but I can't remember I would assume 100. They said they are competitive if not cheaper than Valero on Hamilton road. Sign on the front confirms they have it, just go in and ask. They asked me to spread the word. I will start a thread with verified octanes and prices in the next couple of days!
  10. Confirm the timing belt service has been completed. This should be done around 105K IIRC.
  11. Another thing to consider is that the SSC weighs about half as much as the Veyron and just out runs it. Veyron isn't doing to bad for a 4K pound car.....
  12. Holy shit, that is crazy to think about the engineering behind this thing. The Bugatti is a fantastic car, I don't know why people would rag on it. It has so much history behind it compared to the SSC which is almost a kit car with a fancy interior.
  13. Too much tire pressure...wearing the entire middle of the rears. Awesome pictures man, love them. Especially the one with the train car in the back ground!
  14. If he has more than that rat, I would love to see what else he has. Good taste IMO, loved how the whole thing was engineered.
  15. I just got the results from the event, thanks to everyone that showed up. PCA needs to keep getting more people involved so they can keep putting these on. They barely break even at some of their events, so the more the merrier. Next one will be Sunday August 15th at the OSU Ackerman parking lot where SCCA usually runs their events. Same times, I'll start a new thread once we get a little closer to the event.
  16. Always one that ruins it for everybody. Meh...it was totally worth it Saturday to see the rat rod. That thing was neato.

    Tonight 7/3

    Shit that's a lot of money lol. Erica and I may swing out after some explosives with her family. To parking lot spectate of course. I go fast turning lol. Stay safe out there guys.
  18. Oh man if Adam is going I might have to go say hello. Plus I have never been there, I'll think about it when I get up tomorrow.
  19. That is so stupid, I was like WTF. Come on there is no way that wheel/tire set up will hold that shit. Those tires are not even close to being rated high enough. Probably more of a hey come look at our new engine that we crammed a mini around. It's really cool, but just ridiculous lol.
  20. Yes, thats what happens when you wanna go fast/look good/drive baller cars lol. See it everyday, hear people bitch about it everyday.
  21. I'm gettin' hungry, see you at QSL. Leaving Indianola area around 730 to head up be there shortly before 8.
  22. Count on Erica and I being out in the red 2. Red White and Boom is a failure....Whetstone is where it's at. 2nd biggest to red white and boom. And I don't have to leave my front yard, but I probably will lol.
  23. Another Stas? Hmmm lol, welcome to the board, I actually kinda like the truck. (Gasp)
