wow your a real asshole, its guys like you that only have the balls to play Gran Turismo all day and leave their toyota corolla in the drive way and bench seat race.
your also the kind of person that cant take into consideration the reason why theis guys build their cars with their own hands.
And you guys are acting like they drive those cars everywhere and drive like that all day, you think they could afford to build 9 sec small block chevy cars that get 10 mpg to work?
Are you that naive, to not read around and see what I actually do, or do you not have the balls to face the truth.
I own, right now, two vehicles, of which I work on myself.
First, the one that won't disgrace you. My 1996 Chevrolet Tahoe with a K&N intake, custom headers, 3" stainless steel exhaust, high-flow cat, and small, low-restriction custom muffler (Made by me). It is a two door with a gray cloth on black color scheme. It's got the 350 v-8 and 4 wheel drive.
Now the car that will destroy every ounce of your arguement. My 1982 BMW 528e that has been completely gutted. I rewelded the body (for rigidity), built a custom rollcage and installed, removed excess paneling, removed the stock gas tank, and put a poly tank over the rear axles (for traction and weight distribution), custom fabricated sway bars that are 20mm oversized, an M3 rear diff (for the LS, limited slip), a 2" Eibach lowering kit with Bilstein shocks, Brembo rear disc brake conversion, Powerslot rotors up front, kevlar brake pads, custom carbon fiber hood (also made by me), and over this summer, I am dropping in a 1G-GTE from a Toyota Mark II, which is a 2.0L twin-turbo, which from stock position will give me 60 hp and chop 100 lbs off the engine/tranny mass.
I use this car for
track racing and drifting on closed courses. It also gets about 12-15 mpg. I have also topped it out at 169 mph.
Now, kindly take your books, class has ended.
