Ford GT Vs. Dodge Viper - Motor Trend
tommygun See more of those damn SC problems, belts slipping, belts breaking, pulley's flyin off. It's just crazy when Turbos are so much more fun. Now that I've convinced Paolo Turbos are the way to go, we'll see what happens next.... The SRT is hands down the better choice between these 2...- Juanmotime

The Ultimate Tuner Challenge:Jason H. vs Doug L.
Re: The Ultimate Tuner Challenge:JH vs DL Chucky, Chucky, Chucky it appears you missed Paolo's dyno runs where it [******] slapped Roof's cars HP, which until outdone had always been the "Claim to Fame" of Roofs car. Same dyno, same day. But the idea wasn't even to do that, but to run on the...- Juanmotime

Something doesn't seem to add up...
Re: Something doesn\'t seem to add up... First off all Tom is saying is that when everyone else knocks down 33-34 MPH in that last 3 seconds or so how is Roof getting 40+. That's not driver, that's HP and TQ. None of the faster cars can get that in the last 1/8th so Roof must be doing...- Juanmotime

Roof DLM runs 9.93 @ 151 on blower
Damn, that is an amazing MPH, for a car making anything less than 1000RWHP? Did the car go on a bit of a diet to help achieve that, or where the previous runs done with the parking brake on? ;-) It's a shame he had to get out of it on the 9.87, I'd like to see the timeslips from both runs to...- Juanmotime

Ultimate street car update
I remembered another funny think about Nick and his Skyline. While he was shaking it down at Gingerman a few years ago, right before it died during One Lap he was telling a story about how well it was built. I think he was saying he had the motor built off in Japan/California or something...- Juanmotime

Ultimate street car update
Nick have a car blow up? No Way! This is the same guy that ran the Car and Driver One Lap with his buddy Emmanuel Crouvisier, and blew up his Skyline. Then Flew back to Chicago picked up his S2000 met back up with the fellow One Lappers, then proceeded to blow up that car, and finished either...- Juanmotime

Ultimate street car update
That pretty much sums up what I said. Sure everyone gets 5 laps. But who runs those 5 laps? The fast laps NOT the cars owner (except PMUM last year) It takes money to own a fast car, and skills to make it fast. But it takes balls to drive it yourself and NOT bring in some hotshoe to do the...- Juanmotime

Ultimate street car update
I can see Paolo not being so hot on the road coarse since he hasn't run one in years. Dave would have been a better choice to drive for that event based on more experience. Oh wait, Paolo's NOT a [******] and he is man enough to drive his own car... The way it should be! What did Nick do...- Juanmotime

Ultimate street car update
John - He can only run 1 tire through the event, with them putting on crap tires for the Gross Display of HP. Slicks would be great, but only for those who had them. He's on Hoosiers, which should still land him a high 10, low 11 1/4 mile and possibly some high 3, low 4 second 0-60's I believe...- Juanmotime

Ultimate street car update
Well I heard the subjective ratings were a bit "Subjective" and that the Supra and Skyline were getting big points at the Car show and Guru Panel. Call it an equalizer, call it bias, but like any competition there can be some bias toward or against any competitor. It is an import magazine and...- Juanmotime

Sport Compact Car "Ultimate Street Car Challenge" ==> I'm in........
Re: Sport Compact Car Paolo, congratulations on being accepted to the USCC. You must have a golden horseshoe up your ass, to have now made the cut.

Jr Stop it you're killing me! I'm not hiding who's hiding. Hell, I'm here in Naperville. Come on over and pick me up in the Stryker and I'll even buy you lunch for a ride in that badass. I'm near I-88 and 59, it's like 20 minutes from your shop. I'm a local guy who's been tuning turbo's...- Juanmotime

SANDHILLS 1 MILE SHOOTOUT AND O.R.R. BY SVS
If the idea to detune was the right one, how many customers cars were dropped off at SVS to get that "Worlds Fastest Viper" Twin Turbo package? The idea to race on Sunday and sell on Monday has been around for years. With such a strong showing people should be throwing money at you to have...- Juanmotime

Packet - Call it what you will. I call it a nose for bullshit.

Once again, it sounds like Sr. was afraid of blowing up the Stryker in front of everyone. Jr. just drives so he doesn't get to make those descisions. If he didn't squeak out that last .05 MPH he would have finished with a 199.99, which would have ment one more bullet hole in his foot. Jr. if...- Juanmotime

Off base? I'm quoting your words off your website. Even if you're NOT running the RS, 2 years ago you said the car should easily go 220-230. I'd love to see it and the rest of the guys on the board would love to see it too. From what we've seen the SVS Stryker will go 200. You've made 6...- Juanmotime

Ladies, ladies please stop the whining, this is getting to sound like a Vette board.

The other one is who made the most power, or who made the most power...- Juanmotime
