  1. Guys, it's 2017...Cleveland is pretty much a suburb of Columbus by now! :lol: Think of other cities like Chicago, NYC, DC, LA....it can take 2 hours just to commute to work each way, every day!

    !

     

    It Legit took me 3+ hours to get from Pomona to santa Monica a few years back. About 30 miles. Would have been better off biking LOL

     

    OMG last week I was in Streetsboro for a business meeting and Waze made me go 480W to 271N to get back to Columbus. It was a standstill for 30 minutes, THEN I had to get off to take an overpass, reentering 271S for moar traffic. I should've taken the Turnpike.

     

    I think my dried blood is still all over the steering wheel from smashing my face against it. :doh:

     

    Yeah I always look at the map before I follow GPS sometimes it will def give you the SHAFT

  2. Great bolt on and go 400hp set up. Real Mhi 20g, ready to bolt onto your stock or aftermarket downpipe. Turbo is in perfect condition and shows no shaft play.

     

    $450 obo

    This clutch was pulled out of the box, and bolted to a motor with no trans in an engine bay. The car set like this for a year before it was parted out. As you can see The pressure plate and flywheel has never been engaged with the disc. There is some surface rust from it sitting but this is brand new! Save $200 off retail.

     

    $425

  3. That's fucking insane. After owning a Colt (obviously the one you built), I'd shit myself at that speed. They're like roller skates anyways...can't believe they are capable of going this fast and not launching to the moon.

     

    You're the man JP. Very cool.

     

    Ha! Yes FWD with an open diff is a little sketchier with the torque steer. It feels more stable when its just hookin' and bookin'. But again, i could just be numb to the sketchiest after all these years. :lolguy:

     

    This. My 1G scares me about the 140+ area, ha ha. I have done balls to the wall freeway once. Not doing that again. Lulz.

     

    Im thinking my self preservation mechanism is a little off. LOL

     

    On that pass, I was STANDING on the brakes. The guys at the end of the track were frantically pointing to the last exit. I blew past them mouthing "cant stop" lol. I see why the require a parachute at 150 traps now

  4. Ha well I'll be eager to see it happen. Still non-caged or chuted to boot lol. How many passes do you think you'll get before the kick you off the track?

    Depends on the track LOL. Thats why I went to 42 and not Norwalk that day. Their "tech" guy didn't even open my hood LOL

  5. Jesus bro, thing was movin! I could only imagine, with an actual launch, what you could scrub out of that 1/4

     

    In theory- 8s. A few DSMs are in the 8s at 155-157. I'd have to launch it like I hated it to get there tho and have a perfect 1/8th, neither of which is likely lol.

     

    I'd be happy with consistent, easy mid 9s. As easy as a mid 9 can be for a POS 4 banger :lolguy:

  6. If all components weight the same (shaft/wheel ect) and have the same wheel flow efficiencies, a single turbo is the most efficient way to compress air in any system. This is straight from the mouth of as garret engineer. In lay terms, you can get the tightest tolerances between the wheel/housing, and more turbos just augment that loss. Most twin systems are done for packaging in the OEM world, or sillay airflow needs int he aftermarket that make a single not an option.

     

    And besides- its been done before.

  7. 1Quick7 it was honestly a very easy drama free pass. It was much sketchiest when I last had it out and it was spinning the rear the front, then rear tires due to a worn VC. Welding the center diff fixed that issue.
  8. First pass off the street. Just rolling it out to check the tune up. Broke the already dying rear end when I tried to launch it next pass. Hopeful to make a stick shift race on the 28th

     

    More to come!

     

  9. Me for example, I drive 82mi/day for my commute.

     

    BRUH

     

    My wife only does about 10kmi/year since her work is 11 miles from our house. She drives a Volt and she used 30~40 gallons of gas last year; a vast majority of her miles were on electric.

     

    Well thats better

    How is long term reliability on these? Any battery life studies?

  10. Although I agree to the top 5% are not nearly taxed enough and there are a TON of easy loopholes, but this video is very skewed.

     

    No one wants to hear it, but Ronald Reagan had it right.

     

    Every single one of Trump's tax plans will raise the deficit. The ship is sinking and this retard only tweets that its someone else's fault while he looks to drill more holes! LOL
