Boys with there Toys :) you want to launch faster then space shuttle , or fighter jer climb aboard
just think each cylinder has the equivalent of a arc welder lol 44 amps per cylinder i make more horse power then the first 8 rows at the Daytona with 1 1/2 gallons of nitro per second, the same rate of fuel consumption as a fully loaded 747 but with 4 times the energy volume
.At stoichiometric (exact) 1.7:1 air/fuel mixture (for nitro), the flame front of nitromethane measures 7050 degrees F.
Think about it for a second ...
i will have reach over 300 miles per hour before you have read this sentence. lol

to put it into perspective Imagine this...........You are driving a new $140,000 Lingenfelter twin-turbo powered Corvette Z-06. Over a mile up the road, i am staging & ready to 'launch' down a quarter-mile s trip as you pass. You have the advantage of a flying start. You run the 'Vette hard, on up through the gears and blast across the starting line & pass at an honest 200 MPH.... The 'tree' goes green at that exact moment. I depart & start after you. You keep your foot buried hard to the floor, and suddenly you hear an incredibly brutally screaming whine that sears and pummels your eardrums & within a mere 3 seconds i effortlessly catch & pass you. nearly throwing you off off the track from the pure force..
Think about it - from a standing start,i spotted you 200 MPH.....and it not only caught, but nearly blasted you off the planet when i passed you within a mere 1320 foot long race !!!!
You mean like this

i like cars that run the 1320, but much prefer cars that can turn and stop..
I had a civic in the mid 90's u would have loved.
It was a 90 hatchback with an integra type r motor with a turbo. The intercooler was bigger than the radiator. Thing took corners like nothing ive ever drove and i used to work in a body shop so i drove one of everything over the yrs

I blew up my first turbo trying to run 30psi.
Thats what happens when u diy something tho lol
I had to sell the car the daily harassment from cops wasnt worth it.
So instead i focused on a kandy dub lol mych more low key lol

Corvette the cheapest, fastest and baddest bitch you can buy. My future car when my kids get older. When the c6s came out I did not really like them alot(fuck yes I'd still own one). But them c7s are some of the best dam looking vettes producest. I did not originally like when they went away from the pop up headlights

i wouldnt say the cheapest actually there pretty expensive IMO the best bang for the buck is mustang Cobra with few mods it will kick the vettes ass
one thing ford has it can produce HP for instance it takes chevy BB to produce close to same power as a small block ford engine it amazes me in reality how they stick together but remember one thing 1964 ford was exceeding 206 mph today 2015 and chevy can only hit 202 mph

mustang's coming stock with slicks now are they?
you got to realize Cobra SVT i can change exhaust , chip it pulley change boost factory 8 pounds to 16 pounds and still have FULL Warranty i inquired on the Vette for a chip they said it will void all warranty on the vehicle
cobras are numbered built cars SVT Special Vehicles TEAM meaning ford racing division for instance my 04 they only made 5600 and change
as for the 2013 - 2014 Super Cobra jet they only made 100 of them bad boys 50 cars both years that are 8- 9 second off the show room ride depending on your tune and also about 40,000 less then a ZR1 vette and will destroy the vette were talking 1000 HP factory 5.8 liter small block lol super charged

One of my former bosses bought an svt cobra im not sure if it was an 04 or 05 but i do know for sure that he used to spend $1000 every month on rear tires.
And in the rain it was a straight up death trap.
Fast and fancy but not my cup of tea. He spent 50k on that car and he used to get spanked at the track against old imports with half the money in em.

Can anyone recommend a v8 plus pickup truck. I'm sick of cars and suvs I have no purpose for them. What are the best older trucks mid 80s and later? I want something with a carburetor.
