Buschurs Tube Talon...
Anyone know what happened to Buschurs Tube Chassis Talon? I have been wondering this lately and cant seem to find much on google. I think that had to be one of the best DSM rivalrys between Rau and Buschur.

Re: Buschurs Tube Talon...
The only question I have is, why hasnt Shep unleashed the beast? I would bet if Shep put his motor (or an identical setup) in that car, it would stomp Rau.

You're forgetting that Brent has a Liberty tranny, Shep has a glide. It would take some power to overcome that difference, plus Brent has mucho experience driving RWD. And Shep's car would probably have a 100-200# weight penalty for the different chassis configurations. I think Brent would take it every time by quite a bit.

Re: Buschurs Tube Talon...
Thats crazy. i thought maybe Buschur like crashed it or something. It looks like Shep won it on pinks.  That would be sweet if shep built it and ran after Rau, Another Rivalry.

Re: Buschurs Tube Talon...
So I take it that's Sheps shop? To me all that says is Shep could be working on it.... I would think there would already be more info out there if for some reason Shep now owned the 2G.

Re: Buschurs Tube Talon...
Last I heard is that Shep bought it, but that is Brents car in the right hand corner of the pic.

Re: Buschurs Tube Talon...
Well that's cool, looking forward to seeing what he does with it. This is the first pic of the shop I've seen, looks like a very nice and clean setup.

Re: Buschurs Tube Talon...
Brent and the RWD Talon aren't even in the same class. Brent's isn't a full tube frame and his class requires the car to be heavier and run a smaller turbo.

Re: Buschurs Tube Talon...
A certain friend of mine (dustin) was "fisting" the tube car. Her husband, eric, is shep's lead go-to guy.

I guess if you consider random people you add on myspace to be real FRIENDS. Just like how you're real tight with Jake Montgomery and he's gonna hook you up right?
Maybe he'll even hook you up with some wheels you can actually call your own!

^^^^ x 4.
P.S. Can I get a hookup on a turbo too, maybe even a set of Volks? Jake is my myspace friend! Hell, I might even ask to get a hookup on a girlfriend from myspace!
