Loren is this you!!!

This is filmed from a GTI, I noticed the max when it first started and all the Supras. Also the Corvette that you raced in your vids.

This is from VWvortex. Just like to post these sick Vids.

"Me and a 3rd Gen RX-7, from a 40 punch...
http://www.alamoautosports.com/billy/RX7.MPG
This next race would have been good, except that the camera died, and my car was unhappy about something, started pulling timing in 4th and 5th, so I stopped pulling. I have walked that red supra in front of me pretty good before, but on 3 cylinders, the best I could do was stay with him The cars were, from left to right, Silver BPU Supra, red BPU Supra, Supercharged Maxima, C4 vette with cams, LTI on bottle, and a 97ish Cobra. Also, that is wheelspin you hear when my car gets into the boost. They went from a 30 punch, I just left it in second, which is why I lagged a little bit.
http://www.alamoautosports.com/billy/5WIDE.MPG

And this one... well, let's just say the guy has a T-88 and leave it at that. And yes, I was trying as hard as I could. he makes about 720-750hp
http://www.alamoautosports.com/billy/T88VSVW.MPG"

he beats a BPU supra in this one. he goes 145mph
http://www.abella.net/john/dev/BPUVSVW.MPG

That GTI= 12.32@113mph 1/4mile

Uh... My memory may be better than yours on this since I was actually the one in the car racing Thomas.... but I distinctly recall being dead even with him to 140, then pulling half a car on him by 155, where I let off first because he was coming up on a car and I knew his brakes were faded......

Still the most impressive maxima I've ever seen, but he didn't beat me.

Didnt you dyno after that and changed the plugs and gained about 20 more hp? I think i read it on the Supra mailing list.

Actually I think it was more like 410rwhp --> 425rwhp. Either way, Thomas then dyno'd 295fwhp:



Me red, Thomas blue..

Thomas is a friend of mine and I hate to call BS, but as I've always said since that race, it is my opinion that he was packing WAY more than the 295fwhp he put down on the dyno when he raced me. Even with the weight difference, he'd need at least 350fwhp to perform like he did against me at 410rwhp.

He says he had a 100 shot when he raced me. I believe that.. just like my buddy vivek gained 180rwhp off his "75 shot." NOS pills do some strange things sometimes... What I don't believe is that the same shot(s) was/were on the car when it dyno'd as when we raced.

Regards,
Andi

P.S. Sx7r, sorry bud, you're not going to convince me... but I'll forgive you for covering it up if you forgive me for calling BS.....

Im telling you, all he had was intake & exhaust. He might have had a pulley.

He was running a 100 shot jet but playin with bottle pressure is a whole new game.

The higher the bottle pressure, the bigger the shot. Just throwing ya a hint Andi.

That sounds fine and dandy except he was playing with the bottle pressure on the dyno too.... IIRC he hit 1000-1100psi bottle pressure when dynoing...
