I'd give him an experience on his face for 50 dollars. And he'll like it. |

Re: No replacement for displacement?
A little birdy told me that this car ran into what could be considered a good replacement for displacement last night

Re: No replacement for displacement?
There is no excuse. He lost. But this is a car that runs on pump gas, gets driven 50 miles to work, can make more than 2 passes without breaking or overheating, and doesn't need a pit crew to goto midway. It's at the 14B stock boost level part of it's turbo life right now. It is also owned by a nice guy.

I'm just giving you a hard time. The car is impressive. It'll be cool to see how far you guys can push it!

I don't think it's a matter of how far they can push it, it's more of what is too much. That car is truly capable of an amount which is a little scary for a street car. |

Re: No replacement for displacement?
You can't really compare the cars in question; one is close to its maximum potential while one is at its minimum potential. Either way both are fast as hell so who cares.

Re: No replacement for displacement?
Kenny is a great guy. I think for the sake of his kids, wife, and friends he won't be pushing it much further. Traction must be of prominant concern.
