I don't get it. I can't wrap my head around it. Okay, that's cool. 143whp from an Accent. Probably doubled the power. But...why that body kit?!??!

I was out in monroeville last night. Nobody was out other than a guy from New York with his Ferrari 360 Modena convertible, which was sick as hell.

Nah I know it's a different one, the one I saw was black. There's actually a black Lambo that's sometimes out and about out that way as well. The Lambo is PA plates, no clue on the Ferrari, they were going so f'ing fast I didn't really see anything else about the car.

Anyway, I don't think this was answered from a few pages back. I think 3rd gear in my car tops out right around 100? I remember being right near the redline at the flashlight drags in zelienople last year thinking there's no way this is an 1/8th mile if I'm already at 99mph. And from other 1/4 mile videos I've watched, they shift into 4th right near the finish, so I'm guessing maybe 103?

I think my mufflers got a little louder now that I have a few hundred miles on them..hehe... finally got to take it through a tunnel on friday...6-4 downshift...rooooooaaaaaaar!

Now I just need to make some nice magnaflow magnets out of the stickers that came with the mufflers for when I go autocrossing

That ****** has a Lambo now??????? Last year he had a Maseratti. IIRC and if it's the same guy I'm thinking of, he's only like 26-ish.

If its the same guy - i know who you are talking about. Last time i saw him race at NP he had a Diablo VT that was BEAT. And when i say beat, i dont mean like regular car beat, i mean this thing had like body pannels sagging, front valence cracked, exhaust pipes all bent up, leather interior ripped ect.... It still sounded hella mean tho. But the dude couldnt drive. He was all over the course. Couple cones here, couple cones there....

Yeah, he has a Maserati now that's really sweet. I never actually got to meet him yet though. The car looks pretty difficult to autocross because I'm guessing it has an insane amount of horsepower. He'll just barely tap the throttle and the car will kick out 45 degrees and want to do a 180.

Ya, when you get the new turbo back you need to put that back in. It looks way too wicked to just sell off. Too much potential.

Yeah that's what I've decided more recently. Might as well put it back on. I'm pricing out other goodies to go along with it.

True. I suppose if worse comes to worse, you can live in your car. Cook on the engine block, install a shower, somewhere. Just need a beer tap...

Wait for a fast car (ie. Camaro).
