Either way I come out ahead. Lets see if you figure out why.

I DARE you to laugh in my face.
I can't put an engine together correctly? Name an engine that I put together that failed due to not being built correctly. Out of the 3, the only one that failed was the last one and that was strictly a tuning issue, the bottom end is still fine. The pistons have some pitting from the high temps, so I am replacing them but the rest of the bottom end is fine.
Now, lets see what the infamous Iceman has accomplished in the DSM world.... Yeah, that is about it. Nothing. Oh yeah, you bought some parts and talked about having a fast car, but then you sold the parts. Wow. Yeah, I guess that gives you a lot of room to talk about anything. Actually, that sounds like all of HORT. All I have heard is talk. Have any of you guys even been to the track? How about the dyno? Until you actually do something, I suggest you all quit spouting off to people that have actually done something.

Regarding Iceman, he had the parts and the money set down. The car did not get done. It seemed to be going nowhere for too long. He was heading to College (some place you guys should go) in Dec and the car would still not be put together after roughly a year time span. He is going to college for a year straight. No summer break, etc. He needed a car to drive and didn't have time to wait. This is a FACT. A few other people on here know it also. He sold his 98 gsx to beging the project, now he has a 97 gsx with a 6 bolt swap. Has no experience though....

You don't built some crazy car that was supposed to run 9s overnight and it wouldn't have been a reliable, safe or practical car to have to drive around daily at college. Why not just buy some $500 beater or 2 for college?

The "infamous Iceman" has seen the light. You are correct though. I have accomplished nothin in regards to a quike car. I'm fine with that though. Were a bunch of young guys which you seem to forget. We all go to college which we have to pay for (not cheap). Yet still try to stay in the DSM game. Been to the track but not raced there. Hopfully when I get money flowin in. Dyno has be done by us guys.
