coltboostin Posted March 28, 2011 Report Share Posted March 28, 2011 Congratulations to Matt (Grassroots on here) Ray (PTTColt) and I (Duh) for being featured in the April edition of Grassroots Motorsports. As some of you might already know, Team WESTSIDE placed 2nd out of 54 competitors at the Grassroots $2010 Challenge last September in Gainesville Florida. We are featured in two separate articles in this magazine, so be sure to pick up a copy at your local magazine store! Went 10.8 with me at the helm with a dead clutch. The winner went 10.7x in a dedicated drag car. I would have CRUSHED him if Matt listened to me and swapped discs back home!! http://clevelandracing.com/newsimage/westside_article_small.jpg And yes, the car was tuned by me with a DSMlink version Dinosaur.

-Alex- Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Congrats, I'd love to see you bring this to Mopar Nats and embarrass the Vipers, SRTs, and a lot of dedicated drag cars in a $2500 Colt. Lmao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWW$HEEET Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 fastest colt? thats like being an honor student at a HS for retards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Nice Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 fastest colt? thats like being an honor student at a HS for retards No, that's like doing what some retards spend $80K+ to do and still having cash in your pocket at the end. If someone runs a C5, Viper, or Lambo and get beat no matter what you're in you can save face and say, "I was running against *. NOBODY thought I'd win." If you hop in an f-body or rustang and get spanked by a Colt it's instant humiliation. Congrats JP. You've come a long way from when I first met you. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted March 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 fastest colt? thats like being an honor student at a HS for retards Funny thing is, its FAR from the fastest Colt. Shit its not even the fastest around here! This guy, for example, is an even bigger "retard" 8.4@169? And FWD? Yup. That sucks. This is all a moot point though, since I am sure you have gone faster than all of us. Right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted March 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 Thanks for the props guys. I was just one cog int he wheel that made this car happen.

Guest Spam Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 That link to the fastest colt is stupid. That's not a colt anymore. Traction bar, huge slicks, auto trrans. I'm more impressed with what you did than that colt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted March 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 That link to the fastest colt is stupid. That's not a colt anymore. Traction bar, huge slicks, auto trrans. I'm more impressed with what you did than that colt If you want to be specific, even THAT is not the fastest Colt. Remember, Mirage=Colt. And Evo=Mirage "Evolution". My buddie Mike's Evo 3 (looks EXACTLY like a 93 4 door mirage your grandma drives) that goes 237mph in the mile. http://www.tremek.com/forum/mitsubishi-videos/47196-mike-reichens-evo-2-goes-237mph-maxton-mile.html http://johnedwinmason.typepad.com/.a/6a0112791cb10528a40133ec99c330970b-500wi I consider him to be the fastest.

coltboostin Posted March 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 So is it a mirage or a real evo 2? All Evo's are 4 door Mirage Chassis. Its a Swap'd Mirage hatch. Nice work guys, are you planning on running the same car at the 2011 challenge? After how angry we were for being screwed out of the overall win, I don't think we will bring THAT car back. What they told us would win the concourse was nothing more than a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring stinky furry suits, the editor absolutely loved ours... his concourse score was about 40% lower than the other judges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6 Speed S4 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I want a mirage evo that would be cool to embarass people in it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Nice Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 I want a mirage evo that would be cool to embarass people in it! As I said, not all of us can afford a car as nice as an S4. I can't even afford the maintenance on my Jetta and Passat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
10phone2 Posted March 29, 2011 Report Share Posted March 29, 2011 So how easy was it to get the laser drivetrain in it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coltboostin Posted March 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2011 Bring stinky furry suits, the editor absolutely loved ours... his concourse score was about 40% lower than the other judges. You had the Twin Engine VW right? Yeah, we were not happy about the score. But when I asked for an explanation, what I was told by the judges made us laugh as much as it made us furious. I wont get into details publicly, but its all but rigged due to the concourse shit. We were the highest placing and points scoring car in Drag/Autocross, EVER. And somehow, we didn't win? Right. It is what it is. So how easy was it to get the laser drivetrain in it? Welder and a dream...... No money really, just TIME. We did have very capable fab crew make it a clean install there. The thanks would really go to Lovell Engineering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
