Re: TX2K vids

The evo guys sounds like a dbag. His evo can't hang with the ugr lambos. That green one was starting to pull on him when it blew the trans.

I've heard much the same story from the various message boards I lurk. I am going down one way or another next year, hopefully the drama continues... grudge matches are always a hoot

Between 2:58 and the end my car shows up in the video. A couple of the early runs against the Z06 on spray. Owner claimed it made 670, but, I know what my car makes and the vette was fast.

If I still have my car as Tx2k14 is getting close(and I'm in a position to go to it) I might change things on my car for 1000+whp.

But, that would probably take running 8 injectors, magnus IM/big TB, big cams and bigger than a 3" exhaust.

^Your evo is fast! I would hate to go against an evo if I was in a vette and lose.

Re: TX2K vids

Me and a friend from work were talking about going down there next year when I get a different motor built and a converter in the trans in the Mirage and get it up around my goal of 750-800whp with a 67mm HX40 and a 2.1l, then other than the Lambo's we would be competitive, actually being only about 2100lbs when I'm done with it possibly competitive with them too.

If you can handle a pink roll cage for a few days I can have the car ready for next year! Lol

Sure... If you can hook. A lot of the vettes and vipers have no problem with their 10 inch wide tires.

Re: TX2K vids

Seems like the videos this year aren't as good of quality as they usually are.

And is it just me, or does it also seem like there is a lot more traffic and the pulls are really short?

It gets busier and busier every year so it's getting tougher to find places to run.

Re: TX2K vids

Huh, the UGR guys know how to talk shit, but they back it up. I wish I had the means to get my car down there, with a 50 shot and a solid 45+psi tune, IDK if my 50-150 times would beat the orange car but dam, I think I would be close.
