YJ, you got the VB and TC? I want a TC too. Where you bought it and how much did it cost? I'm thinking about getting one, but not sure if it's worth it. The TC only help in launching right? It doesn't do anything else I presume.

(these are from my last time up at the track)
Note the 60' times being faster than Briguymax... who takes GTP's off the line if he tries hard. (he quoted a 2.25 60') I'll also pretend that my car doesn't have a leaky VCG, a leaky injector, bad wires, and a engine light I haven't checked yet.

Rice as in all show and no-go. People who put fart pipes, stickers and big fins on their car to run a 16 sec 1/4 mile.

I haven't ran 1/4 mile time yet... the GReddy is the fart pipe... and I have maxima.org stickers.

Do I qualify now?

Yes Kev you are the biggest ricer I have ever seen. We all know what superchargers and possible 13 sec 1/4 miles add to the rice factor.


Oh and nothing and I mean absolutely nothing is better than shrimp fried rice.

I beat a GTP, plus I got it on video too. Checkout my homepage and copy/paste the link to view. It was a close race, I edged him out at the end. People were telling me that there had to something wrong with the GTP. Who knows, who cares. A WIN IS A WIN.

Perhaps the car had more than 25k miles on it. Thats about all domestic cars can take before they start to fall apart.

I stuck a 98 cobra on the highway with my max....they're not that incredible...GTPOS's are slow...driving excitement my a$$

As for the race, stock GTP's aren't the fastest things in the world, I'd even say I would put my money on a auto max, GTP vs Max Top end run. One of my buddies with a modded GTP handed a '98 cobra its *** on the highway, that guy gave us thumbs up when he turned off, he was very surprised. My friend has an aftermarket ECU, which allows downshifts at higher speeds where the stock ECU would not. That was done with about $400 worth of mods (smaller pully, aftermarket downpipe/no CAT, CAI, various low $$ tweaks). GTP's can be made pretty fast on the highway, just takes a little more work than making it fast off the line.

In short, yes it is possible, yes it probably happened, good run.

Yah, the ultimate rush would've been dropping into 2nd but if you don't have that, go with the gear you've got..

Re: Honest to God GTP kill!

I don't find it hard to believe the GTP kill. High end they're crap. I've taken one out before with my stock SE....and he wasn't a sumo either.
