Holy turbos batman!

I was watching Pass time tonight... I love that show, they get some crazy cars on there.

Anyways, they had a bunch of cars from this company Pro Line Racing engines.

The last car of the night was an 06 Mustang....a Mustang I actually liked....

It was 630 some odd ci and 2 huge turbos!

They just the record in this car for the 10.5 Outlaw class....they ran a 6.40 @ 224mph!!

They have a bunch of cars with similar Twin Turbo set ups, including a 1st gen Camaro.

Here are some pics:

O yah and I forgot to mention how it ended on the show. The show was filmed before they had set the 6.40 record with the car, so he was trying to break the record on the show.

He took off in a wheelie, but hooked nice...was still in a wheelie about half way down the 1/4 and started to break loose, but he didnt let off....he wound up in the wall, but still rolled past the line fast enough for an 8.22

Good God thoes are huge... <Insert "that's what she said" Joke Here>

I love watching Pass Time, i think its funny when you have people roll up in a stock mustang/civic/lancer/etc and they pull 12-15s passes then you get someone like this who actually modified their car and has a clue how to set it up do a run and set a new record.

I have 600 more posts than you do... I know how to post in the "proper" section. I thought about it before I chose to post in this section, and then made the decision to post here because the post was about TURBOS and I knew it would get more exposure to owners of TURBO cars in this section. Honestly, I think you need to get a life. I shouldnt have to justify myself. Like said above, if the mods cared they could have moved it.

Hold on... did you just imply that having 600 more posts makes you a forum guru and are incapable of posting in the wrong section?

I was waiting for that, . Good goin' brah, you got me. I guess I need to spend more time posting before I point out the fact that this is in the wrong section after you tell another guy off for being correct.

Yah thats about right. No youre not the one who posted it...youre the one that was complaining about how it was posted... is that any better??

Other than you and the other guy upset by the placement of my post, the other 15+ responses seem to be positive, so clearly its not bothering everyone.


Like I said before, its not like I didnt know not to post it here. I thought about posting in the pictures section, but then decided I wanted it to get more exposure to turbo owners, so I posted here.

Thats the end of my explanation to YOU, so if you dont like it complain to a mod and have them move it.

brah?....

Im not going to continue trying to argue with that. If the mods want to move it PLEASE GO AHEAD AND MOVE IT, then maybe these two clowns will be able to sleep better at night.

It seems like everyone else is enjoying the pictures.

The mods don't care, lol.
This website is screwed up, they protect the vendors. I wrote a honest and professional review of poor experience I had with a vendor and the mods removed it. "if people have a problem with a vendor I think it's in the site's best interest to allow open discussion of the issue as a part of vetting who they have as their sponsors"
