Kind of a long story but I'll put in a short version. Out testing a new boost controller I had got, raised the boost up to like 12-13psi and I was on a highway where it wasnt any other cars. It was like 12am and I was goin really fast and came up on a hill so I slowed to about 80-90mph not thinking anything of it. Bn over this hill a million times, well turns out as soon as im at the crest of the hill there are at least 20 cars at a DEADSTOP
I slowed the best I could w/o locking em up and, in the right lane a car and the left was an 18-wheeler. Didnt wanna rear end either and I was doin about 50mph headed at them, thats the mph I had time to slow down to, I yanked the e-brake a lil and managed to slide in between the car and the big truck, almost made it, but my fender clipped the front truck wheel (you know on 18-wheelers how the wheel sticks out) Well that smased my passenger side fender, messed the hood up and front bumper. No one was hurt thank GOD. A lady got outta her car and came running up to me CRYING and yelling loudly that she hoped I was not dead. The truck driver got out and asked if i was ok, and said u almost made it, and he was sorry jus b/c he said I had a nice car. I shouldnt have bn speeding....def know that but man I go over that hill everyday like at least three times. I only had liability on the car at that time, and I was so disgusted with myself I just sold it all together to a guy in Florida. I could have fixed it, but my Pride was hurt and etc. Just goes to show you that anything is possible on the street and when u think u know something, YOU DONT, and I just thank God no one was injured. rmorse;2586373; said:He snapped the steering wheel, since his muscles were too massive.

Fellow wanke(r)l freak beat me to the post. I love FCs, and I love 13Bs........Nice car man, it's a shame that it got wreckedcichlaguapote;2586838; said:
With all that wrapped up in the engine it would have kicked ass in a sand railNo no no go with a 3rd gen Camaro. Put a 396 cid in there and beef up your sub frame turbo 350 tranny and a Holley 4 barrel 750 cfm and your set. Get a nice big lobed cam new 2.02 intake heads-1.96 exhaust with 70 lbs springs to get those valves open alot quicker and you'll be suprised how fast you can go lol. Won't do no 160mph but will get close.sevendreamz;2586507; said:Preciate it....yeah it sucks....but hopefully I'll be bck in the car game this summer...tryna get a 02 Camaro SS 6spd or C5 Vette...

I respect all gens of Camaros but I think I gotta go wit the 02 SS or C5 Vette the LS1 is a monster of an engine and it mods so well. Plus I like the looks of the 98-02 Camaros and the C5 vette is a beast as well. Im thinkin in the long run FI 408 and its not gonna be much that can touch me....Im lookin at like 600-700-RWHP. That is in the long run though...at first jus some heads, cam, intake, and like a 150shot.......thats already like 650hp......but I will be back...I love the ROTARIES...I just hate they lacked the TORQUE.........
Nice!!! Love the RX7 but hate the RX8 Glad you and everyone else was OK
I miss my old Miata...... I will have to scan a pic of it and show you sometime. I don't have any digitals of it. It was my first car(ten years ago)
Candy Cobalt Blue paint
motor chromed out
72 spoke daytons
Hydraulics(9 switches)
Chrome pumps in the trunk with plexiglass mirror throughout the trunk and covering the batteries
lots of other details...... Won a room full of trophies with that car
Had a few things done to the motor but nothing to bragg about(only a 4 banger) I went on Senior trip, I had some stickers made and put on the triangle windows that said "NO FAT CHICKS"
Of course the hot chicks loved it, and the fat ones, well, I'm sure wanted to put a few rocks through the windshield! I'm not the muscle car type.... I like em but my dream car is an old Mercury..... love the Lead Sleds!!!!!
