Duh, that's why we've said you can come and hang out with us. It's not because we want to run our fingers through your hair.
ewww.... oily bohunk!

Anyone else and I could talk some good trash to reply to that, with you, not so much. But hey, I'm gonna anyway.
Much like everything else, put away your weightlifters pants and cut the mullet Guido. Becuase the 80's are over and so is your time as a factory backed driver. While I have no doubt of your mad skillz, the bifocals no longer fit under the helmet, the Cialis doesn't work as advertised, and the walker gets hard to strap down in the car in time for the warm up laps. On the upside that crazy astroskank proved you can drive in the adult undergarmets.
Look, I can't help it that I'm younger, faster, in better shape, more attractive and smell better than you. Thats just life, except for the smell thing, thats all you.
No way I could built some kinda motorcycle powered kit and drive it across country in 62 days, so I will be humbly competeing in a Neon (pics here) and I anticicpate a slightly worse finish than my $2K5 debut in the SyeVilya. I couldn't even beat the 343 in its current state with my hardware, and since Per was probably only kidding about getting someone else to drive, I won't get a chance to come after you with worthy equipment, unless they let me bring my track bike into the fray.
But in the true nature of trash, I am still gonna keep talking smack, even though I can't back it up. Plus, this way you get to see your tax dollars at work. (thats right, this is a goverment computer)

You have the invite. Now, pick a charity, post up the paypal link for GRMrs to bet.
In other words, put up or shut up.
He has the invite to bring his car so we can write about it.
The Micheal Jackson-esque Beat It slap-fest is whole 'nother matter entirely. As the Berzerkeley finally drove this past weekend, I'm not sure which one I'd bet on.
By drove do you mean Tommy pulled it across the parking lot while Tim made "rumpa rumpa" sounds?
Nope, Tom (as in Tom Heath not Tommy Suddard) drove it about 1/2 mile. We're still working out starting/ignition fault codes because the GSX-R wiring harness/ecu has anti-theft features that the lack of orginal ignition switch has aggravated.
See the project car page. That photo of the car in motion was not staged like the lunar landing.

Now that is some good smack! His 343 build team will be looking for reparations from him, for the forced child labor from back in the day.

BHP...WOW.....THAT IS Awesome!... I look forward to chasing you down the track.
I'm thinking for that thing to make 375hp, it must have at least a 250hp shot of nitrous.

You must have seen my $2004 challenge car in action.

When I saw this picture
I immediately thought, oh look at that Berkeley. Then I put on my bifocals and wondered where the Berkeley is? I looked at the Berkeley website and noticed that they both have 4 wheels... It looks to me that the "race car" will become the show car at the Challenge and the "show car" will be the race car. If they get it running before the Challenge I'll start the Ebay betting, but the bigger bet would be if this thing runs by then, 61 days to go!
125hp 3.0 V6, that's funny or really bad math If the car is RHD will it still blow out the passenger floor, or the drivers floor
Maybe I should build a silly little car and sit in the middle

Naw, the age card is in your wallet, it looks like this;
My prediction for the Bezerkly v Minisan outcome:
Not really, but it gives me a chance to use that poster.

I'm still having problems tagging people on the boards vs. coverage of the event in the magazine.
You didn't happen to be the guy with the neon?
And you know you want to enter a beater 3rd gen Celica with me for 2009. You know it. Give in. We can do this, Pic-a-Part has EVERYTHING we would need to at least make a serious dent in the drags.
Nope, I had the '77 rabbit in my profile. After a missed shift and lots of nitrous, the intake boot, fuel distributor plate, hood, and clutch pressure plate had seen better days. But I got a cool trophy out of the deal!

There was a guy that used to come down to Greenwood on weekends with a Rabbit that looked just like that, with a cage, missing back bumper i think. Same color and everything.
That didn't happen to be you, did it?
I don't remember if he was the guy that had the Corrado, too, or not. Or he sold the Corrado to get the rabbit, or vice versa. I don't know... it's friday and my brain sucks.

Well, they make 160hp stock, and I figured the wear and tear, and chicken crap build-up would knock it down to 125. So yeah, a little of both. So if it's not worn out, and you cleaned the chicken crap out of the intake, what did you do to get a claimed 375hp from a 160hp engine?

Nope, the farthest north my Rabbit has been is Vincennes. Our northern-most auto-x is in Lawrenceville, Il.
The 160hp stock engine is due to the restrictions (Intake, exhaust, cams, cam timing, FI, pollution crap, computer...) All of that has changed. My guess is between 200 and 225hp with a 150 shot plate. So, the writer of course uses the 225... It now runs strong up to 6,800rpm and is one of the best sounding cars I've ever been in
I admire you being straight up about the writer's headline embelishment, but with the obvious attention to detial you put into that car, I am genuinely surpised you haven't had it dyno'd yet.
He keeps shaking the kids down for milk money but forgets that he never pays them...
"haven't had it dyno'd yet" I can't afford it for tuning runs, that's why I'm hoping a US magazine wants to dyno it (hint,hint again)... In fact I'm trying to score some good tires for the Challenge. Me and the kids are getting tired of Mac and Cheese, but we have to save up just to make it to the Challenge. 11 of the kids won't be able to come, so they'll be camping behind my house while we're gone: don't trust the little buggers in the house...
