  1. Thanks for the gossip update, no offense but why do people post their ticket stories on here? This is CR, there is no mercy for this kind of stuff here.

    Holy shit

    First reaction of seeing the pictures, I have never seen this, but i suppose with race pads that eat rotors this could happen...maybe. Customer was complaining about "brake fade" Title was first words out of my mouth. http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=4534625
  3. Refer to street racing laws, both driving drunk and racing have the same results of causing accidents, if anything they should be stiffer than street racing. Edit-I am not totally familiar with street racing repurcussions and the law.
  4. lmfao I was waiting for someone to say something about all of these "well i think I wanna sell my ride, but i can't make my own decision threads" Thats great +rep
  5. hmm I didn't know this either, may have to drag my ass out of bed and go spectate.
  6. I personally would not consider that a street car, you could not get it into my driveway in stock trim. That is a race car period.
  7. I for one am pretty excited about it. Looks pretty neat, I remember getting the movie when I was a kid because the cover looked cool. I remember the light bikes vividly. I will be checking it out in theatre's as well. Thanks for posting, haven't seen anything about it since Pat showed me the trailer from some show that was not supposed to be leaked out yet.
  8. Car? '92 Toyota MR2 Mods? Overweight Z32 wheels, intake, adjustable shocks Usage? A lot of Autocross, Daily Goals? Little more suspension work, would like to have it as a dedicated track car NO 1/4 MILE! Car? '87 Toyota Supra Turbo Mods? Drop springs, shocks, BOV, Intercooler, (sill rebuilding, low budget here) Usage? Well, planning on 1/4 mile, autox, track day, and drifting. Goals? Have fun, not break a lot and to have an all around car for everything. Oh, and to add to your original post, there probably is not a big import drag racing scene b/c FWD cars are not built for drag racing physically. Obviously they still race them once they jack the rear of the car way up to keep the weight transfer in check.
  9. This was in the news, it is fake. Microsoft was showing off their editing skills in Europe, this was the commercial.
  10. You could give Buckeye Upholstery a call on buyers circle west. They did seats in a BMW convertible for a customer of ours and did a nice job.
  11. You: bologna Stranger: Cologne You: WD40? Stranger: Axe You: Not a panty dropper Stranger: You make me sad panda :-( You: I are babboon?
  12. We are at the North end inside 270 with a Matco and Snap-on rep. I can get you numbers Monday, I don't keep them with me I have them at the shop.
  13. It's a piece, if you guys feel so bad why didn't you buy it lol the only reason it's anything now is because it's getting crushed. He said it was for sale for months and he got out of it what he was asking. Back in the era when Maserati was building cars for Chrysler, badged as a Maserati with a Turbo Chrysler motor, called the TC or something.
  14. He's young and driving an Orange mustang lol. It's normal for police to give us youngins grief. The only way to solve it is drive something that doesn't scream look at me!
  15. Drag radials are supposed to have soft sidewalls to help with acceleration (sidewall buckles), so in a straight line maneuver they would be good dry, otherwise they would SUCK turning, since a stiffer sidewall is needed to keep from rolling onto the sidewalls. Not much grip on the sidewalls. So, to answer your question they MIGHT be a little better than a summer tire thats all. Don't get too over confident.
  16. No, they are stating the law which says you have to have treaded tires on the street, they don't care whether they came with treads, or not supposed to have treads. Don't be ignorant just because you were driving on the street with slicks on. It's for your own safety and ours around YOU. Black chrome is better

    Seafoam

    Just ran it in the shop for 20 minutes then drove home, wasn't revving that high lol, doesn't take a lot. It will dump almost at idle, let alone 2500K.
  18. The wiener mobile is no joke! Some serious shit right there!
  19. Well shit, I had this Fiero sittin in my front yard and my neighbor had this old harley in his front yard and we had some beer in us. We decided to fuse the two of them together into this madness.
  20. The only major difference with the GXP are the huge overweight wheels and a 6 speed instead of an auto. If you have to have a manual then yeah GXP.
  21. Never seen a turbo one, that seems pretty neat.
  22. White stripes would be appropriate since the car comes factory with stripes in some trims.
